Who does Osama really want to be President?

No, it's you conservatives that don't get it. There is absolute incontrovertible evidence that occupying a muslim country and killing jihadi only begets more jihadi. It's called the Russian occupation of Afghanistan. Look into it. One thing I'll say for liberals, they seem to consider historical antecedents more than conservatives do.

It's not a matter of appeasement. It's called diplomacy and using diplomatic isolation to effect one's ends, and using war as truly a last resort, because it only creates more problems -- regional destabilization, lack of accounting of a regime's weaponary and resettlement of civilian populations.

Once again, military operations should be a last option. It wasn't necessary here and will likely result in negative consequences for the region and the U.S. for many years to come.
