To say he Osama was “forced” was a bad choice of words on my part.Might have been better to say Osama is a symptom.
A religious propagandist at the head of a rebellion is not a surprise.He has many more secular reasons for the issues and stances he has taken that if the roles were reversed the U.S. would absolutely invoke. Sept.11 was fascinating and as miserable as it was,I see it in the context of “all is fair in love and war”. Not that I agree with it, but I understand it in that context.
