Again, you miss the point. You are dealing w/ a religious fanatic. If you had gone to OBL in 2000, and made him the proposition that in five years he could have the American bases out of Saudi Arabia, the Muslim world inflamed against the west, the secularist Saddam gone, the US bogged down in Iraq, his forces using American troops as practice targets. Al Qaeda recruitment and funding up. But he would be dead. He would have taken the offer without hesitation. That's what religious fanatics do. JMO lurqer

You are so wrong and you have been wrong and let's hope that you are around to see the fiasco that this IRAQ war has csused. The American Public is prevented... curtin down...on seeing the wounded and dead being returned. Six Americans were killed this week-end. It will go on and on as luger is correct. OBL is winning. One does not defeat idealogy as we should have learned in Viet Nam.. We all have to live in the same world and the Islamic World views us in what I call very unfavorable light... As a matter of fact, we are hated. How does one resolve that HATE.. By exacerbating the very thing they hate about us which luger described very well. Now you may call him a pinhead...and you may do you hehehehehe... and all the things you are famous for but I am a pragmatist and we have yet to see the end of this war and the defeat of terrorism.
