I disagree with that.
You can kill Osama, but not his mind.
The problem with Osama is not Osama itself, he is a chief terrorist but not "the middle east problem".

And... a dead Osama can be a Martyr for his followers!

Very true croseus,but i think the instructions for these big attacks are coming out of one central source.
But you are right,itwould only stop them temporarily, they would regroup and pick another leader.

Yes, and the problem is fundamental islam. They hate the West and all what we stand for including womans lib. And they believe they go direct to heaven if they kill a non-muslim. So what can we do?

Well everything's quietened down here in London, people are a little subdued, and if anyone knows Londoners that's not like them. There have been more bomb scares in other parts of the UK, Birmingham City Centre was evacuated, but fortunately nothing further has happened.

Thanks for the emails guys, I took a couple of days out, no point trading when the mind is preoccupied elsewhere.

As for Osama, I suspect he's either dead or in US custody already, although I have nothing to substantiate that. The last thing the US would do is make that public knowledge in my opinion, the extremists would go nuts altogether!
