His organization declared war on the US, didn't it? and took credit
for those embassy bombings in East Asia and the attack on the USS
Cole? There's also a lot of evidence that al Qaeda was involved with
911, too.

I see nothing wrong with the idea that there are some people hidden in
the mountains of Pakistan who are just as crazy as Timothy McVeigh and
just as able to put their craziness into practice.

I wouldn't trust Mullah Omar any more than I'd trust Dubya.

He didn't get rid of them. That's why they (and their allies) have a
lot of influence in Afghanistan right now. Also, Bush created the
basis for people joining al Qaeda-type groups in Iraq.
