New York May 2, 2011, — In the wake of the official announcement that Osama Bin Laden, alleged leader of Al Qaeda has been killed, September 11th Families for Peaceful Tomorrows released the following statement:

[(As we consider the killing of Osama Bin Laden, our thoughts turn not only to our family members who were killed on September 11th, but to all of the innocent people around the world who have died, and are continue to die, as a result of the events of September 11th, 2001

It is our hope that the rule of law, underpinned by our Constitution, that was so terribly strained in the name of September 11th will again become the guiding light of our policies at home and abroad. One person may have played a central role in the September 11th attacks, but all of us have a role to play in returning our world to a place of peace, hope and new possibilities. We hope that process will begin today.)]
