USS Cole, Khobar Towers, etc., say otherwise, IMO. Maybe David Brooks can do those things and not be "one of the most seasoned guerrilla fighters in the world.", but I doubt it. Or is Brooks saying OBL didn't do those things?<br /> </div></blockquote> <br /> Well there's a difference between actually being a "seasoned guerrilla fighter" and planning military or quasimilitary attacks. I don't know Brooks' source and probably what I'm suggesting isn't true most of the time, but I'd imagine there are people who've planned successful terrorist attacks who haven't done shit in terms of actually fighting anyone, and I <em>know</em> there are a lot of 'successful' (whatever that means) fighters, in the literal sense, who couldn't plan a fucking birthday party.</div></blockquote> <br /> Like so many of LaserWolf's "facts," the Brooks-derived opinion about bin Laden seems to be wrong. Bin Laden had genuine guerrilla experience fighting against the Soviets in Afghanistan. <br /> <br /> I don't think OBL worshiped the Norse gods, either, but I suppose it's possible.<br /> <br /> http://www1.whdh.com/news/articles/world/12004204532486/timeline-osama-bin-laden-s-life/
