The essay explores the American public's reaction to Osama Bin Laden's death in 2011, drawing parallels to the celebration of victory over Japan in 1945. It questions whether the widespread joy and relief were indicative of a genuine triumph or if they represented a misguided belief in the end of Al-Qaeda as a threat. The analysis delves into the implications of this jubilation, suggesting that it may have oversimplified the complexities of terrorism and the ongoing challenges posed by such organizations.
