I think Bin Laden is more concerned with 1916 than the 17th century. That is when Britian and France reached the infamous Sykes-Picot agreement carving up the Middle East between them.

We also should not forget that the US is MUCH more vulnerable economically and financially today than it was in 1962 or even 1991. The US cannot wage the kind of war wanted by the neocon war hawks without reinstituting the draft and reducing domestic living standards quite substantially IMHO.
