In the wake of all the "celebrations" about the death of Osama Bin Laden, and the mixed feelings people's various reactions give me, I found this video. It is a dialogue between the mother of a 9/11 victim and the mother of an accused terrorist. The ability of these women to find some semblance of redemption and humanity in the face of the greatest horror (the loss of one's children) is a comfort to me. I don't know quite how to feel about the destruction of a destroyer like Bin Laden, but I do know that a cross-cultural hospitality such as these women's gives me reason to believe there is hope for the world.
