If anyone in this world is the Great Satan, it is Osama Bin Laden. It is disgusting that such an immoral man presumes to speak for Allah.

"neither these countries nor their clerics, have no more right to the moral high ground than do we." Absolutely! "and at a point where self-blame is counterproductive" If you gained the impression that I "blamed" the whole situation on the the US actions of the past, this was not my intention. I do not think any ONE party is to blame. What has happened has come about as a result of many factors. What I WAS trying to suggest, however, is that there is some merit in reviewing what has, and has not worked in the past. I think it was the philosopher Santyana who said something like "He who does not learn from the past is compelled to repeat it....." Namaste! Jim
