    Bin Laden has a declared objective of starting a "holy war" between Islam and the West?

    Given that, who has done more to help Bin Laden meet his objective? Moderate Muslims, or the American right-wing (see the "9/11 Mosque controversy", the Koran burnings scheduled, the Iraqi War etc.) or possibly just the American public, if I'm being too optimistic? I'd assume that Bin Laden...
