re: Bin Laden, and most terrorist,are a tool of the clerics, who know that westernization of the arab world, will mean that they will lose their power, as many religions in the west have lost their significance over time. The clerics, and OBL hope that by going back to the thirteenth century ideals, Islam, and the arab people will regain the prestige and power, they had then. But, it will never happen. You can't turn back the clock.

Not my point. If we quit meddling in their affairs, are we still a target?

This is an approach that past GOP presidents could not live by and I doubt that future ones can either. The ME screwed with our oil supply in the '70s. That means they can never not mess with the ME again.

Remember......Richard Nixon was paranoid about J. Kerry when he first ran for office back in the '70s. To me, that says volumes.
