Maybe Bin Laden was not "running things" from an operational standpoint, but he represents an intangible that's very important to Al Quaeda -- a spiritual leadership. He's an inspirational and motivational figure to the religious zealots that operate in Al Queda, or may be considering joining. He's irreplaceable in that respect.
there's also the money connection. That's sure as hell going to be missed. This is a big, big blow to Al Queda. Any organization needs leadership.
