Hm. So everyone else is an identityless number and this asshole gets a face memorial?

Aside from the above, this is an inelegant, imperfect implementation of a decent kernel of an idea.

I'd LOVE to see the brief for this one.

Logically off (there are about 4,000 soldiers missing), strange strategy...how does this sell a newspaper? Is it known for obituaries?

"With osama's death, the number of 9/11 victims increased from 2,819 to 2820."

I think the idea here is "what goes around comes around" or "you reap what you sow". That's why you see his head at the top (he killed all those people) and then the year he died at the bottom (in the end he died too). This is clever, but it could be misinterpreted, I am afraid.

Then you shouldn't get your information from scam ads on an internet forum.

It could work better with something to guide our interpretation, a single line of simple copy maybe. As it is is he the last victim? Is it sweet revenge? Or if it's intended that we should question which maybe it would be better to state that in three or four words.

No. Way too open to interpretation.
