In the aftermath of President Barack Obama’s announcement tonight that U.S. forces have killed 911 mastermind Osama Bin Laden, Gov. Chris Christie issued a statement.

“I want to commend President Obama’s Administration for its commitment and dedication to finally bringing Osama bin Laden to justice,” said the governor. 

“As the former U.S. Attorney and now Governor of New Jersey, I speak for all the families of this state who have courageously endured the unspeakable and devastating consequences of terrorism. There is hardly a life that has gone untouched in New Jersey by the horrifying assault on American soil that took place on September 11th and today, after years of waiting, justice has finally been delivered. While our fight against terrorism continues, Osama bin Laden’s reign of terror has come to an end, sending a clear signal that even in the face of immeasurable horror, democracy and freedom continue to prevail.”
