Bin Laden's zealot bent, incidentally, is precisely the reason that
overt collusion with Saddam -- who has never been a fundamentalist and
leads a largely secular, even in SOME way progressive, society -- is
unlikely in the extreme.
---geeze, youre being way too nice about this guy... youre giving him too much of the benefit of the doubt. i give up. the thing is: What do you want to do about it? Bin Laden doesn't care if we helped to save "his people" in kosovo or somalia, he won't care if we pull out now, he doesn't give a crap, he's gonna keep terror alive until all the "infidels" are gone. he said so in that letter!!! no one read it, i guess.. basically we're just supposed to give up and say "we're sorry osama, kill us all! we deserve it! we're horrible horrible americans!" Who want's to see the US and democracy dissolve? hmm, that might be a good conspiracy theory...
that's all i really wanna say. i dont' want to fight with anyone, i'm just up for a discussion. i'm not pro war, i don't think anyone is, but i agree you have to draw the line somewhere, i hope we can solve this without war. but you DO need BOTH sides for peace to work. in this case, we can barely even see the sides clearly..
Hey, are you Steven R. Smith? : )
