Obama to Visit Ground Zero

The Wall Street Journal reports:

President Barack Obama will visit Ground Zero in New York City on Thursday for the first time as president, a trip that comes just days after the U.S. military operation that killed 9/11 mastermind Osama bin Laden.

Mr. Obama last visited the site of the terrorist attack that brought down the World Trade Center during his 2008 campaign. On Thursday, he will meet with families of the victims of the attack, White House officials said.

Americans, including some of  those family members, have been celebrating at the site since the president announced Mr. bin Laden’s death late Sunday night.
