A Visit to Bin Laden's Neighborhood
High walls, barbed wire and frequent army patrols: Osama bin Laden chose
to hide out in a rich garrison town that was crawling with Pakistani
military. Neighbors say they can't believe the world's most wanted
criminal was hiding among them.

AL-QAIDA LOSES ITS LEADER
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Osama Bin Laden, Prince of Terror
The US government hunted Osama bin Laden for 10 years after he claimed
responsibility for the deaths of thousands in the 9/11 attacks. Now
American forces have killed the al-Qaida leader in Pakistan. But his
death will not mean the end to global jihad.

IMPACT OF BIN LADEN DEATH 
------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Monster Lives On
In death, Osama bin Laden leaves behind one of the most resilient and
effective terrorist networks the world has ever seen. The death of its
founder and leader will shake al-Qaida and weaken it, but it won't
disappear overnight. For some time now, others have been in charge of
planning global terrorism.

comfort of a luxury compound in Abbottabad, one of Pakistan's most
beautiful cities, some 60 kilometers north of the capital Islamabad.
Details of the US mission that killed him are now emerging.

A Victory For the US, Justice and the War on Terror
World leaders and senior political figures have been congratulating US
President Barack Obama for the killing of Osama bin Laden and say
justice has finally been done, almost 10 years after 9/11. But they have

Berlin's Peaceful Day of Rage
Berlin's traditional May 1 riots fell short of the violence seen in
recent years. But following brief clashes between rioters and police,
which resulted in a handful of injuries and arrests, the smell of pepper
spray was in the air.

A Casual Relationship with the Truth at Guantanamo
The US prison at Guantanamo houses the worst of the worst of
international jihad. But as the detainee assessments recently made
public by WikiLeaks show, it is a description that can be applied to US
evidence gathering as well.

'The Government's Narrative Was a Lie'
When he arrived at Guantanamo in 2005 as chief prosecutor, Colonel
Morris Davis thought that he would be dealing exclusively with fanatical
terrorists. But he soon realized that many prisoners shouldn't have been
imprisoned at all. In a contribution for SPIEGEL, he describes his path
from idealism to disillusionment.

'Limiting Anti-Terror Laws Would Make Germans Easy Prey'
The capture of three al-Qaida suspects in Düsseldorf last
week has sparked a political clash over Germany's anti-terror laws.
While Germany's interior minister aims to extend post-9/11 laws, other's
in Chancellor Angela Merkel's government are seeking to block the
move. German commentators are divided on the issue.

German Court to Scrutinize European Parliament Rules
Smaller parties in the European Parliament elections can end up with no
seats despite winning a small slice of public support. But this could
soon change. Complaints about the voting system are to be heard at
Germany's highest court on Tuesday -- and there are signs the judges may
iron out some irregularities.
