We are getting revenge for 9/11. 9/11 was revenge for blowing up innocents in Lebanon and Palestine. We're just exchanging blows. At some point someone with some power has to say, "This is fuckin stupid!" Otherwise, we're doomed to another retaliation, to which we'll retaliate. Violence begets violence. You can't ever reach world peace by blowing shit up.
Money wise, Osama is right, we spend $1,000,000 for every $1 they spend. Yet, we still don't have him. We can't even stop the insurgency in Iraq. Going by historical prescidents, it'll take us about 20 years to quell the insurgency, if we do it with everything we've got the entire time and never let up. Americans in general aren't willing to do that, Vietnam is too fresh in our collective memories.

"Just as a man who has fallen into a heap of filth ought to seek the great pond of water covered with lotuses, which is near by: even so seek thou for the great deathless lake of Nirvana to wash off the defilement of wrong. If the lake is not sought, it is not the fault of the lake."
