No problem.

OBL's daily activities are scripted by the fundamentalism he practices. Everyone in his entourage has rights over him which he is obligated to accommodate. For his personal needs, he would not enter the bathroom except if he stepped in with his left foot first and muttering the appropriate prayer, once there he says a prayer as he washes his face, etc. He would not pick up a drink except with his right hand while muttering bismillah (in the name of God). His behavior is thus regulated step-by-step throughout the day and into the night. He gives generously to charity, etc etc etc. You get the picture. All of this means nothing except that he is following the script as closely as he is able. He definitely worships the religion...Does he worship the God of the religion? His practice of the religion does not necessarily reveal what is in his heart. His political aspirations and association with the Al-Quaida terrorist agenda does. He hates us, he has supervised the oppression and tyranny of the Taleban. He has authorized and condoned the attacks on the innocent victims at the WTC, and others. He sees him self as the Khalifa. A Khalifa is the one chosen by God to be something like God's Emporer for the World. Whatever we think of him we should also recognize that he is very serious about this and the Al-Quaida network is committed to see this agenda manifest.

I believe we can succeed because we know our enemy and because we will form a just position to defeat the unjust. Many in the World theater have seen us as supporters of tyrannical dicators who would have been long overthrown without support from the West. I believe a world wide revolution against tyranny has been triggered. Many of those revolutionaries are riding the fence, unsure of where we stand. The recent actions of Collin Powel may have had the correct impact on our long term well being in this regard.

Have Peace
