#1 Osama bin Laden was never just the founder and leader of the group, but also an idea. He embodied the belief that their version of Islam was correct, that terrorism was the right weapon, and that they would ultimately be victorious.

Ye, ya, Obama invented muzzi terrorism.

#4 Osama had hundreds of millions of dollars that:

1) After s[ending it towards the defeat of the Soviets in Afghanistan he then used to build up the Taliban in Afghanistan, and then try to expand the reach of militant Islam into the heart of the USA.

2) He then kept financing the Taliban resistance until now.

Unless the Taliban can find another source of money such as the poppie fields, they may just start being bankrupt right about now.

Thier most reliable source of cash flow being gone now, may just about put them into a deep sleep for a while.
