拉登之死成美反恐戰爭拐點？

The American people did not choose this fight. It came to our shores, and started with the senseless slaughter of our citizens. After nearly 10 years of service, struggle, and sacrifice, we know well the costs of war. These efforts weigh on me every time I, as Commander-in-Chief, have to sign a letter to a family that has lost a loved one, or look into the eyes of a service member who’s been gravely wounded. 　　美國人民沒有選擇戰爭，戰爭來到了我們的海岸，對我們的人民進行無意義的屠殺。經過近十年的服役、戰爭和犧牲，我們太知道戰爭的代價了。每當我作為三軍統帥，必須要給那些失去了心愛之人以及那些遭受重大創傷的服役人員的家人寫信的時候，種種艱難時時刻刻都壓在我的心頭。 　　So Americans understand the costs of war. Yet as a country, we will never tolerate our security being threatened, nor stand idly by when our people have been killed. We will be relentless in defense of our citizens and our friends and allies. We will be true to the values that make us who we are. And on nights like this one, we can say to those families who have lost loved ones to al Qaeda’s terror: Justice has been done. 　　美國人民知道戰爭的代價。然而作為一個國家，我們永遠都不能忍受國家安全受到威脅，或者在人民被殺的時候袖手旁觀。我們會一直保護我們的居民、我們的朋友和盟友。我們會真實的面對這些代價。然後像今天這個夜晚，我們終於能對那些被基地組織奪去家人生命的家庭說：正義得到了伸張。 　　Tonight, we give thanks to the countless intelligence and counterterrorism professionals who’ve worked tirelessly to achieve this outcome. The American people do not see their work, nor know their names. But tonight, they feel the satisfaction of their work and the result of their pursuit of justice. 　　今晚，我要感謝數不清的情報人員和反恐專家們，正是你們不知疲倦的努力才有了這項成就。美國人民看不到他們的工作，也不知道他們的名字，但是今晚，他們會對自己的工作感到滿足，他們對正義的追求得到了收獲。 　　We give thanks for the men who carried out this operation, for they exemplify the professionalism, patriotism, and unparalleled courage of those who serve our country. And they are part of a generation that has borne the heaviest share of the burden since that September day. 　　我們感謝那些執行這項行動的人，這是他們服務國家的職業化、愛國主義和無可匹敵的勇氣的明證。自從九月那天起，他們就成了背負最沉重負擔的一代人。 　　Finally, let me say to the families who lost loved ones on 9/11 that we have never forgotten your loss, nor wavered in our commitment to see that we do whatever it takes to prevent another attack on our shores. 　　最後，讓我對那些在911事件中失去家人的家庭們說，我們永遠不會忘記你們的損失，我們會採取任何措施來防止對我們國土的另一次襲擊，這個承諾我們也永遠不會動搖。 　　And tonight, let us think back to the sense of unity that prevailed on 9/11. I know that it has, at times, frayed. Yet today’s achievement is a testament to the greatness of our country and the determination of the American people. 　　今晚，讓我們回顧一下911那天我們的團結一心，我知道隨著時間的流逝這種感覺已經漸漸淡去，但是今天的成就見證了我們國家的偉大和人民的堅不可摧。 　　The cause of securing our country is not complete. But tonight, we are once again reminded that America can do whatever we set our mind to. That is the story of our history, whether it’s the pursuit of prosperity for our people, or the struggle for equality for all our citizens; our commitment to stand up for our values abroad, and our sacrifices to make the world a safer place. 　　我們保護國家的任務還沒有完成，但是今晚，我們再次相信，美國人民可以完成任何我們下定決心完成的事情。這就是我們的歷史：不管是對人民繁榮的追求、或是對人人平等的奮鬥，我們傳播我們的價值觀的承諾以及我們為維護世界和平所作出的犧牲。 　　Let us remember that we can do these things not just because of wealth or power, but because of who we are: one nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. 　　讓我們銘記，我們做這件事並不因為我們的財富或力量，而是因為我們自身：我們是在上帝之下，所有人都擁有自由和正義的不可分割的一個國家。 　　Thank you. May God bless you. And may God bless the United States of America.  　　謝謝大家，願上帝保佑你們，上帝保佑美國。
