I just reported to you what I learned from listening to the program I described. I just think that we are in big do do.. The final chapter has not been written. What I wanted to illustrate is that we played into OBL hands by following HIS game plan to a T.. What happens ultimately is anyones guess. These other things you mention are to me incidentals. We are bleeding our treasury with this war... and the fruits of this have yet to be realized.. It's the over all picture. Do you know of the story about an Arab who ran into another friend in town. He said well I finally got even with so and so. His friend said golly didn't what he did to you happen 10 years ago. Yes was the reply.

>>So do you think Osama bin Laden and his gang are winning the "war", and America is losing? How's Osama's stock market doing lately? How's his health care? Did he enjoy his Ramadan visit with his family? How many people have joined Osama's winning ranks since 9/11 versus the number that have immigrated to the losing side of the USA? :-)<< Elroy - Viewing this issue as a black and white question of winning and losing is not a good way of understanding it. As Suma pointed out, after 9/11 we had the whole world, including much of the Islamic world, on our side. After our invasion of Iraq, millions and millions of people all over the world went from being sympathetic to being antithetic to our cause. - Allen
