Reaction to Osama Bin Laden's death

BBC Asian Network - Nihal, Reaction to Osama Bin Laden's death

Is the world a safer place now that Osama Bin Laden is dead?

Is the world a safer place now that Osama Bin Laden is dead? What's your reaction to the news that he'd been killed by US forces in Pakistan?

At 1, Naresh asks 'Is the world a safer place now that Osama Bin Laden is dead?' 

Osama Bin Laden has been shot and killed by American troops just outside Islamabad. 

The mood in America has been triumphant, crowds gathered outside the White House and at Ground Zero chanting "USA! USA!" One guy had a banner saying "Obama 1 Osama 0" but does everyone share the same sentiment? Many conspiracy theories about Osama's death have started circulating meaning that there are many people who deny that he's even been killed. What does his death represent? Now that Osama is dead, will his ideology disappear too?

At 2.30, Is it unromantic to postpone your honeymoon?

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge aka Prince William and Catherine will be taking their honeymoon later on this month. In the meantime, Prince William will be back in Anglesey working as a search and rescue pilot. But would you be upset if you had to wait before jetting off to a romantic destination with your other half? Or is a honeymoon irrelevant in the measure of your love?
