I'm not particularly worried about them trying to infiltrate our culture with Sharia law, since they have no hope whatsoever of doing so. I believe they do have hope, and they persist in establishing enclaves in our country and others. Clearly Sharia law is unconstitutional, but if it gets a foothold here we will have to deal with it whether we like it or not. We already have plenty of examples from within our own culture. They keep shouting 'death to America' for a reason that defies our logic but fits theirs perfectly. People who haven't been taught to think for themselves react to such things. We have this going on in our culture, with celebrity worship and preoccupation with reality shows. In the case of bin Laden, I don't think 'decent and moral' will cut the mustard. It would be best if a Muslim took care of him, since if we did it he would become a martyr. They are the ones with the most to lose, so I think they should get on with it. Use his own methods against him, if necessary. We can't do it.
