It is true that he has been killed but some evidence of his death, (in pictures) would be good for people who are looking for closure on this matter.
I'm glad that the monster is dead and hopefully the other affiliates would be dismantled and brought to justice. The democratic revolutions in middle-east along with this news is good for world peace.
A good start to this process is already on the horizon.

It would have been good to see some evidence - but here is what was posted on media abt it;

Still, it was unclear if the world would ever get visual proof. Bin Laden's body was quickly buried at sea, and administration officials were weighing the merit and appropriateness of releasing a photo of bin Laden, who was shot in the head.

The Obama administration used DNA testing and other means to confirm that elite American forces in Pakistan had in fact killed Osama bin Laden, the mastermind behind the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, officials said Monday, as the world absorbed the stunning news.
The officials said the DNA testing alone offered a "99.9 percent" certainty that bin Laden was shot dead in a daring U.S. military operation. Detailed photo analysis by the CIA, confirmation by other people at the raid site and matching physical features like bin Laden's height all helped confirmed the identification.
One official said there should be no doubt in anybody's mind that the person killed was bin Laden.
The officials spoke on condition of anonymity given the sensitivity of the matter.

I don't think, US has made a claim earlier similar to this - which one are you referring to?

And who cares whether he died or not? Such organizations and activities do not depend on one single person or brain. We have to attack the roots of such issues.

By the way, Osama was found in a location very close to Pak's military base. Inspite of it, Pak is not reprimanded:

Clinton also said the U.S. was committed to supporting the people and government of Pakistan and defending their people and democracy from violent extremism. She said that bin Laden had also declared war on Pakistan and had ordered the killing of Pakistani men, women and children.

The photos that are floating on the internet makes me think it's all fake and he is still alive.
Although I agree that such oraganization don;t depend on one single person to operate.

I don't think the opposition party would have rest without convincing evidence, especially with Bush and Cheney congratulating Obama.

VP, this must be consoling to you :-)
In Pakistan, an embarrassed silence on killing of bin Laden
'This is a serious blow to the credibility of Pakistan,' security analyst says

Pakistan faced enormous embarrassment Monday after Osama bin Laden was killed by U.S. Special Forces, raising questions over whether its military and intelligence were too incompetent to catch him themselves or knew all along where he was hiding.
The killing of the world's most-wanted man in a house just a few hundred meters from Pakistan's version of the West Point military academy will only fuel suspicions that the country has been playing a double-game over Islamist militants and al-Qaida.
..
"This is going to be a time of real pressure" on Pakistan "to basically prove to us that they didn't know that bin Laden was there," Senate Homeland Security Committee Chairman Joseph Lieberman said at a news conference.

US now should invade Pakistan's terrorist camps and destroy them. I have lost hope with India doing that.
