Quote of the Day: Psychology and Osama's End

From Ed Morrissey (my emphasis in italics):
But even with that said, the targeting and destruction of the world’s most-wanted terrorist will have a deep symbolic and operational impact on Al Qaeda. For years, the network could reassure itself with the fact that the Americans hadn’t been able to touch the man who professed to be acting for Allah, and who served as their inspiration. His death at the hands of U.S. forces cannot help but to shake that faith, and that may end up being the most powerful blow America could possibly deliver to the radical Islamists who demand world domination. 
If we can find and kill Osama bin Laden, we can find and kill the rest of them, too. And now they know it.
