I think Osama Bin Ladin is extremely clever, a master manipulator. The strong anti-Bush feeling throughout the western world has played right into Bin Ladin's hands. His example of Sweden is also brilliant -- but essentially he is saying that if you don't stand up to me, I will not harm you -- lie down and do nothing like Sweden, Canada, New Zealand, etc., let us do what we want, and we will not attack you. I'm sure Hitler would have much preferred to be left alone to do what he wanted also.

Lets not forget that Bin Ladin was threatening the USA long before Bush came along with his "War On Terror" and the Iraq war -- something millions of Americans and other westerners seem to have forgotten.

The War on Terror will not end when Bush is out of office -- and neither will terrorist attacks in Western cities -- I guarantee that.

Also, Bin Ladin talks about Palestine and Lebanon -- he doesn't care about the people of these countries at all -- they are just a convenient excuse for him.

The Israeli's do not hate the Lebanese people, it is Hizbullah they have the problem with -- and that is an organization that would like impose ultra-conservative Shi'a beliefs throughout the Middle East without any debate or discussion -- too bad if you are Sunni.

But I must say, Bin Ladin makes the US look very ignorant -- he is a very clever man.
