Indeed, we will have to be particularly vigilant in the weeks ahead.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut it is, I believe, a massive step forward.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOsama bin Laden was responsible for the death of thousands of innocent men, women and children right across the world \u2013 people of every race and religion.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe was also responsible for ordering the death of many, many British citizens, both here and in other parts of the world.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI would like to congratulate the US forces who carried out this brave action. I would like to thank President Obama for ordering this action.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd I think it is a moment when too we should thank all of those who work day and night, often with no recognition, to keep us safe from the threat of terror.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut above all today, we should think of the victims of the poisonous extremism that this man has been responsible for.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOf course, nothing will bring back those loved ones that families have lost to terror.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut at least they know the man who was responsible for these appalling acts is no more.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"removed_link\" title=\"http:\/\/www.number10.gov.uk\/news\/topstorynews\/2011\/05\/death-of-osama-bin-laden-63392\">The Prime Ministers Office<\/span><\/p>\n<p>TheNumber 10<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Prime Minister David Cameron has issued a statement on\u00a0the\u00a0news of the death of Osama Bin Laden.
