It's amazing how opportunistic these muslim extremists are. They do anything (and I mean: Any Thing) to stich to the letter of the law in their Quran, but where in that book does it say that they are allowed to use modern weaponry suck as nuclear, biological and chemical weapons?
I say they've lost the plot.
I would agree. They use the Koran to justify what they want to do just like the Communists used Marxism-Leninism to justify what they wanted to do.
I do think that Osama wants to appear to be operating withing Islamic law because the people really do believe in that.
