There's only one problem with your theory. Omar and Osama baited the US to bring on the ground troops. We didn't. If Osama uses the "dirty" bomb, all he'll get is a few of our SpecOps, the NA, and civilians. Moreover, without the US first using the "dirty" bomb, the rest of the world will be against Osama's dirty deed. The Talibums are not in a good position right now (understatement) and are looking at spending a very LONG winter in very unlavish accomodations.

Personally, I don't think Osama, or the Talibums care what the rest of the world thinks, that's part of the nature of fanatics. It wouldn't surprise me if they had a boobytrap somewhere. I hope I'm wrong, but it wouldn't surprise me. But I think (hope) that our leaders are considering this option as well.
