I've been ruminating in the back of my head since I got the news as to why I wasn't more excited about it--after all, the boogeyman is dead. You've just neatly articulated it--the war is not over, not abroad and not here. Just 'cause we cut off one of the hydra's heads doesn't mean it's dead.
If his death instills a renewed drive to actually end all the atrocities of this war, then I'll celebrate.
