He is not living the good life. Osama bin Laden is the multi-millionaire who failed to use his money to build. Instead he decided to use his followers by convincing them to sacrifice their lives to destroy what Muslims, Christians and Jews built. Bin Laden has lived on the run for years with a multi-million dollar bounty hanging over him. Wherever he is staying day to day, it is likely unhealthy, not pleasurable, and dangerous.
From time to time unsubstantiated rumors of bin Laden's death make the rounds. Media and politicians scramble to gain ground. The public is subjected to "could be true" news stories and campaign-oriented short-sighted lectures
Bin Laden's death or his continued living must be seen in perspective. Dead or alive, he has made all of himself that he can. He is despised by many and revered by many. He may at best destroy, kill, and inflict additional suffering and pain upon many.
Bin Laden was part of the final push of the world into World War III. WWIII has begun. It will continue with or without bin Laden's participation.
Bin Laden is no mastermind. Insane concepts such as flying passenger airplanes into high-rise buildings are relatively easy to fund and supervise when plots are premised upon the acceptance of suicide by underlings.
Bin Laden's money is not needed. Those who will perpetrate WWIII upon civilization will receive funding from many sources with little effort.
For several years former President Clinton failed to be appropriately concerned and allowed bin Laden to escape capture and death. Had Clinton's administration killed bin Laden, some other fanatic -- or fanatics -- would have taken his place. Buildings would have fallen, although perhaps not on 9/11/01, but on a different day and perhaps even sooner under better leadership.
World War III is underway. It will proceed until enough fanatics are killed or become satiated and bored with the routine suicide killings that fail to stop -- or even make a dent -- in civilization's progress. Perhaps someday enough fanatics will be exhausted and realize that they are failing to push civilization back into the dark ages. Perhaps someday enough fanatics will realize that their only accomplishment is their own isolation in dark caves of discomfort. Someday they may choose to join civilization and enjoy the benefits of modernity.
Regardless of how WWIII proceeds, bin Laden is not needed.
Bin Laden's pursuit is required because he has committed grievous crimes against humanity. He must be killed or captured and publicly tried by civilization.
The media and politicians are destined to continue dancing on the non-existent grave until it exists. Then they will move on to another short-sighted, confused story line and lecture.
US leadership must stop being goaded into focusing upon and, in particular, promising to capture bin Laden. US leadership needs to lead to victory the fight that will someday be universally recognized as World War III.
