I did not wrote this "Just as some wish to make Bin Laden a holy god". But I think the ways of making heroes and anti-heroes in the 1800s is interesting, Napoleon on his white horse,etc, more complicated with the he radio of the 1900s, in every home, and with TV all those visual effects became, once again, more emotional. Defining he "hero" is, according to many, a dual operation of defining "the enemy". Ilmarinen Btw, the american revoltution should have an important function, ended the habit of all those great uniforms one was not supposed to shoot at, heroes had to select different visual stimulance after that.
