My concern right now is that we may be playing right into OBL's plan. How he knew that taking out the WTC and Pentagon would turn world sentiment against the U.S. is amazing to me. But he was right. Now, right as things are heating up in Iraq and the rest of the world is trying to get the U.S. to cool off, OBL shows up on tape giving a great reason to suspect that the terrorist/iraqi threat may have merit (if not Saddam, at least the Iraqi people). OBL is playing a worldwide game of chess and he views everyone as pawns. Where I believe that we have to neutralize any potential WMDs, I am having second thoughts about doing what our enemy (OBL) wants us to do. Doesn't Sun Tzu have something to say on that topic?
