#3 Dissident: Disagreeing, as in opinion or belief.

In what way does OBL disagree with AFP?

#4 Actually OBL is now probably a dissident within Al Queda. OBL is now, I think, wanting to 'purify' Islam as a first priority. His deputy and most of the Al Queda forces want to kill the infidel first.

They might come to an agreement by declaring all Moslems they disagree with to be infidels but then they have to make distinctions between various kinds of infidels. This gets nasty because the Quran and Hadiths are ambiguous on this.

#5 It's all well and good. I can tailor my response accordingly, as in: "I'd like to see bin Laden liquidated."
