I think the wedding between Kate and William attracted so many viewers because people love the medieval era of kings and queens. We enjoy this time period in America, but Europe especially loves it because they actually lived through it in their culture, so it's more engrained for them.

  1. I think that now that Osama is dead, I think we will get many terrorist attacks. I think this because some of the terrorists will want revenge for their fallen leader.

  3. I think that it is good that the U.S. army killed Osama. I think this because it might end the war on terror.This may also be bad though because terrorists might retalliate

  4. I think that it is a good thing that Osama Bin Laden was killed. Since he was the head of a terrorist organization called al-Qaida, which is one of the major terrorist organizations. This might be a sad thing for all of his followers and the people in his terrorist group, but it is for the better of the entire world. I think this because hopefully, there will now be less terrorism and the world will be a safer place. Even though one of the world's major terrorists was killed, there still is other terrorists and people that are part of his group in hiding that also need to be taken care of.

  5. I think that the death of Bin Laden was a massive blow to the terrorists, because he was one of their most powerful leaders. This is a great win for the U.S. I hope that now there will be less terrorist attacks in the future.

  6. I think that the Teacher of the Year award is a terrific award. I think this because teachers do have to work very hard and their job is extremely important since education is crucial in the world today and recognizing them and a specific teacher that's working hard is wonderful.

  7. I think that it is good that we killed osama, but we shouldnt celebrate it like we are because we are being mean and we shouldnt celebrate it because its bad.

  8. I think it was a mistake to kill Osama bin Laden, even if he was a threat. It might have been wiser to keep him prisoner in such a way that he would not escape, but murdering him was foolish. I think that he is even a bigger threat now. If he has followers, they will seek to avenge his death. It was a mistake because his death now may be a reason for more terrorists to attack once again.

  9. I think that the royal wedding was interesting but it was very pricey. I knew that it was going to bring many viewers because people want to see something that would make them happy and with all of the bad things going on in the world, the wedding was a breath of fresh air for some people.Its was also nice to see something peaceful and happy on tv. I know that England will be very happy with their new happily wedded couple.

  10. Because of Osama's death, we won't have as many terrorist attacks. But then again because he is dead, the people who "worshiped" him may want to get revenge on Obama. Lets hope that his followers don't find some cure to bring the dead back to life and go find him at the bottom of the ocean... that would be HORRIBLE!!!!!!!!

  12. I think it is good and bad they killed Osama Bin Laden. I think this because he was bad and dangerous but my belief is that no one should be killed no matter if how good or bad they are. Although he has been I think the most far we as a people should go is throwing them in jail for life.

  13. I think the tornadoes going on all over the world is definitely not good because they cause so much destruction and damage including people's homes. I also think it's hard to deal with because since the economy isn't doing so well, it will be hard to pay for and build back everything up and not have so many people be homeless. I find it very sad.

  14. I am pretty happy that Osama bin Laden was killed. I am happy because, now that he is killed, he won't be able to hurt anymore people. I am usually against killing people, but if its killing a man who would ruthlessly attack others, I would not mind. At least there is one less murderer in the world. Even though Osama is gone, others could always take his place. And they could do something worse.

  15. I am glad but a little scared now that Osama bin laden is dead, because we may get many terrorist attacks. But then again it might be a good thing because when 9-11 happened they might have been scared that they were going to be bombed, but now that he is dead it might have been a relief for both of us.

  17. I think it is good and bad about Osama being killed. It is good because, a terrorist is always bad to the world. Unfortunately Osama has many "friends" that can still cause trouble now that their leader is gone. Also just because Osama is dead, doesn't mean all the people from 911 is going to come back. :(

  18. i think that it's awesome that Osama Bin Laden is finally dead! He was a crazy, horrible terrorist. From recording death threat on a video camera in this room to planning 9/11, he was horrible. It's a good thing that he's dead. But now, I'm afraid of the terrorists who will want revenge on us! Watch your back america!

  21. I think the death of Bin Laden was great! I am also glad that Obama WANTED to have him die. Hopefully there is nobody that will follow him if so than good luck to America. Some say that the Navy Seals were so silent that the neighbors didn't even hear any helacopter sounds or they didn't throw him in the ocean and they kept him and asked him questions.

  23. We think that it is good that Osama Bin Laden was killed because he was a huge threat to our country. We hope the war will end soon because he basically started the war. We are glad that he is dead and that other innocent people are safe from him. He was really digging his on grave with his terrorist attacks.

  26. I think that the death of Osama bin Laden was a great moment in the history of the United States because the number one leader of 9-11, the terrorist group that bombed the Twin Towers. However, this had a bad cause as well. Other terrorist groups may go into an uproar and keep his legacy ongoing. Our opinions though, are that Osama deserved to be shot in the eye. The killing of many, innocent workers is something you can't forgive. All in all, that darn terrorist should have a great time at the bottom of damp ocean, where blow-fish are probably feasting on his dead carcass at this moment.

  27. I think that no offense to muslims but Bin Laden deserved to die. He threatened us and he killed lots of people. He was responsible for the 911 and cost people family members and friends.Still no offense to him he really deserved to die of what he did to us.

  28. I think the teacher of the year award was great. It's good to know that the people responsible for our future are doing a good job, because some kids just won't make it in life without those great and encouraging teachers around. Not that I'm hinting that some people need to work a little harder in class. Alright, maybe I am

  29. We think America is delighted over the victory of Osama Bin Laden's death. He was a very evil muslim who wanted to kill American's because he thought we were evil. He killed many people by crashing a plane into a building. We have been hunting him down ever since. Ever since 9/11 2001 people have been trying for many years to stop him from killing. The American soldiers were determined to find him then kill immediately. Luckily they killed him outside Islamabad, Pakistan.

  30. We think the army's chose to kill Osama bin laden was really smart. We think this because he put the world through misery. But one reason we wish they hadn't killed him is because people say he had a plan, that after he dies, would go into process.

  31. I think that killing Bin Ladin makes no difference from the safety of the country because the terrorest is a team not just the person. But just killing Osama is making a small difference.

  32. I think that it is great that Osama Bin Laden died because Bin Laden was the heart of Al Queda. But the only bad thing about this situation is that his followers would probably plan an attack on America that is worse than 9/11 that caused many people to die. So in many, many ways, it was a bad thing to kill Osama. We can only hope that Osama's followers don't plan to attack America.

  33. I think the choice of killing Osama was very good for our country,but Osama's followers could easily retaliate for taking out their leader. The best part of killing him though is the victims and families that were affected by 9-11 have been given some closure knowing the man that killed so many is dead. Now since America killed Osama their is even more of a reason for Al Quida to launch a mission even worse than the one that devastated us only ten years ago. I very much give thanks to the men that brought justice and gave America a new reason to celebrate and bring happiness in these hard times.

  34. We think that it is so shocking how viral and expensive the Royal Wedding was. We know that it is a big deal in England, but it is not so important that it needs to be on t.v and all over the internet and news. It is just a wedding, they are not really doing any thing to special or ruling they just act fancy. They just wear nice clothes and drink tea!!!

  35. I think it was dangerous for the US to go into Pakistan undetected and kill bin Laden without anyone knowing. This is because Pakistan is already a "distrusted partner" and I don't think they liked that fact that America came into their territory without their knowing, even to kill a world-famous terrorist responsible for the deaths of many Americans. I think it is great, though, that we now know for a fact that bin Laden is dead. Along with the horrible event of 9-11, who knows what more he could have done with him still alive?

  36. I think it is sad Osama's dead because he's already killed so many people so killing him now wont do much since he hasn"t planned any other killings. But, I also think it is good because that means the war will probably end and there wont be as many deaths.

  37. I think that the death of Osama bin Laden was an amazing thing for America after 10 years of tracking him down they finally found him not in caves but in a nice house in my opinion he deserved to die he killed innocent people on 9-11 and every year on that day we take a moment of silence to honor those who died he was shot several times he was a bad man and is now resting at the bottom of the ocean finally gone from our word and now maybe the war and all terrorist acts will come to an end......

    I think we're happier with Osama bin Laden is dead because he was a terrible terrorist and he caused a lot of terror, like destroying the Twin Towers and everything. Osama bin Laden is better dead. Obama's plan was quite clever and it worked. I think this is great. We can stay happy and everything with lesser terrorism!!!!!!!

  42. Sam and I both think that Osama being killed could be a good thing for America because he was a horrible man that killed THOUSANDS of people. We also think this could be a bad thing though because his followers and friends could come for revenge on the U.S.A. If the U.S. left him alive, this might not happen, although he could have plotted a second 9/11 attack.

  45. I think that it is great that Osama Bin Laden died. We have been searching for him a long time. The navy seals did very good in this mission. I think this because we have been searching for this man for about ten years and we finally found him. I can't believe that he has been hiding so close to Pakistan the whole time and they didn't even know about it.

  48. Although Osama bin Laden is dead, I don't think we are going to be a whole lot safer, because the Al-Qaeda (terrorist organization he led) will likely want to get revenge on the U.S. So to sum up, we might not be that much safer with Osama gone than we were when he was still alive.

  50. i think that it is good that al-qaida's leader is dead but i am disgusted at the way that people have reacted. i think this because i know he did horrible things but show some respect for the dead. if you died would you want to have people cheering in the streets? Also his operatives and senior members,well all of Al-Qaida is going to be ticked off. I don't know if this true but i heard he was unarmed. why did they kill him. Wouldn't he be more useful captured and alive? also is it a muslim tradition to bury the dead in the sea? Anyways that seems a bit fishy. (No pun intended)
    Also they informed us a week after he was killed to test DNA. Which is interesting. Where did they get the DNA? I heard it was from a relative. Anyway we should be expecting a attack,because those terroists are going to be mad.

I think that the world will be very polluted if there's 10.1 billion people killing it because in the future there will be a lot of cars and if 10.1 billion people use them it's going to be a problem.It is pretty cool that there will be that many people but we still need to find a way to stop polluting.

  53. We think that the fact that William and Catherine got married out of happiness and respect is great. This is because the world has many bad things going on. There is many killings especially with Osama who just died. The world in England is peaceful the new happy couple will most likely bring joy and happiness to many views of the world. I am sure that the new couple are happy they just had a pricy but beautiful wedding. :)

  56. I think that it is good and bad that we killed osama bin laden. This is because after 10 years of trying to find him we found him and killed him. It is a great achievment for america and obama (He might get reelected because of this). It is also a bad thing because other terrorists might plan another attack like 9-11 because he was killed.

  57. I think that the death/killing of Osama Bin Laden will be both a good and a bad thing for us in the future. It's a good thing because we finally killed a terrible terrorist, which will stop him from continuing to terrorise people directly, but it may have negative ramifications. It may be a bad thing because Al-Qaeda may seek revenge on the US in return for the killing of their leader. In conclusion, I think that it is a positive fact that we've killed Bin Laden in general, but Al-Qaeda may seek vengeance for the death of their leader.

  58. I think it is good that Osama Bin Laden is dead because maybe the world will be more peaceful. However, it may not be a very good because Osama Bin Laden's friends and followers might want revenge and try to kill people in the U.S.

  59. We think Osama Bin Laden's death is good but bad, because he is the head of the terrorist organization but when we killed him we also killed his family. He did do 9-11 which was a very sad day for the US but did his family deserve to die too. A crew of elite USA soilders killed him in his hidden cave. President called it "a good day for America!" .

I think it was very good that they captured and killed Osama Bin laden because now we can feel safer that there's not a terrorist that killed many people in one day on 9/11.This makes almost everyone in America happy to know that there's one less terrorist in the world and we consider this a win for America.
