Luetkemeyer Statement on Bin Laden
Washington, DC,
May 1, 2011
This is a historic success in the war against terror, but the battle continues, and we must remain vigilant. The Middle East is a volatile region and it is critical that we continue to fight those who would do harm to Americans at home and abroad. This is a victory for our military and intelligence personnel who put their lives on the line every day to protect our citizens. This is also a day to remember those we lost on 9/11, and those who gave their lives in the ongoing battle against worldwide terrorism since that fateful day.
