mph,

re: I guess my real question is, do you therefore justify his terrorist activities?

Of course not. If I could I would personally enjoy putting a bullet through his head.

re: My take is that the OBL's of the world have their own personal agendas and
co-opt the impressionable to do their dirty work.


True. (Although couldn't you imagine the exact same being said about Bush, Cheney, Rummy?).

re: I'm not inclined to worry over whether OBL
has an legitimate disputes. His use of terrorism, IMO,
forfeits that consideration.


It's not a personal consideration, it's a battle tactic. "Know thy enemy better than thy self" (I'm sure I butchered that quote!). You will never beat back terrorism with brut force, but you can defend against it by out-smarting and out-working the bad guys.
