   Actually, the IRS writes the regs.  Honest.  And they have not really been
reined in at all.  They've just put on a show set of hearings with no results.

   bin Laden was a multi-millionaire citizen of Saudi Arabia.  He was involved
with the Mujahideen in Afghanistan and had is Saudi Arabian citizenship
revoked and his assets frozen when he refused to return to Saudi Arabia
in 1991.  His radical brand of Islam puts him in opposition to U.S.
involvement in various parts of the world and thus, he as the kind of
person who does not hesitate to use violence, a conflict arises.  And,
bin Laden currently occupies the number 1 position on the FBI's most
wanted list.  With all the effort directed towards the capture of bin Laden
it seems like he manages to evade capture.  The more effort expended to
catch this guy, the more outrageous the propaganda flows, from both
sides.  Probably no easy answers on this one, but IMO fear of this
guy will do nothing to address the situation.  Less involvement by the
U.S. in local affairs around the world might help.....who knows.
