Some pundits and experts see Osama's death as a continuation of the mission started President George W Bush. For some this is also an evidence that the Obama administration and Bush administration are not as different, as many may think. Osama Bin Laden was the initial excuse to invade Afghanistan. What will change with his elimination? Jeremy Scahill, a blogger and the author of "Blackwater: The rise of the most powerful mercenary army" shares his thoughts.

1. as a continuation of the mission started President George W Bush.

Uh.... wasn't it started by President Clinton?

then abandoned by Bush to go into Iraq.

That seems a more apt description.
