The reason that coward applies to bin Laden is because of his method of attack against unarmed, DEFENSELESS civilians How can you imply that America was a coward for dropping the atomic bomb on defenseless civilians? Cowardice is a lack of courage. It has nothing to do with any act; it has to do with the fear of the perpetrator. Any psychotic can kill innocent children. Many of them are incapable of fear because of their psychosis. On the other hand, many of our greatest people have experienced a lack of courage. It is a disservice to all the decent people of the world to equate the very natural human trait of fear in the face of danger...with the unnatural traits enjoyed by those bastards who kill (with or without fear) the innocent and the weak.
