                    OSAMA BIN LADEN MEETS HIS MAKER

  (Mr. POE of Texas asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute.)
  Mr. POE of Texas. Mr. Speaker, the long arm of American justice has 
found the pawn of Satan. The father of al Qaeda, the leader of 
terrorists, has met his maker, and May 1, 2011, was judgment day. Osama 
bin Laden was the emblem of all the evil and hatred that exists in this 
world. The men and women of our military and intelligence community are 
to be commended for their persistent, relentless dedication to finding 
and eliminating this monster from the Earth.
  This news brings some comfort to the families of the thousands of 
people who died in the attacks on September 11 and those who have died 
in the war on terror.
  Bin Laden's death is a decisive victory for America. While this 
momentous event brings us a sense of satisfaction, we must remember 
that there are more evildoers in the world who want to continue a 
crusade of hate and murder.
  Those people have heard our message loud and clear today: If you 
attack America, justice will be done, because justice is what we do in 
the U.S.A.
  And that's just the way it is.
