Great post Ed. I agree with everything you said, but you and I would probably disagree with the implementation of the principles set out so well.

<<"Is Bin Laden ... a criminal mind...that can be removed to restore order or are they a symptom of a culture and a religion and its interaction with the Western culture.">>

I don't see "either/or"; I think both can and should be accomplished and as long as we can overthrown the Taliban (with its 13th century thinking) and do so with minimal civilian causalties, I say good riddance.

I like they way we are proceeding: using air and some ground troops to help the Northern Alliance to accomplish that.
