These people are common criminals, heroin traders and murderers. The
al-Queda and their Afgahn hosts the Taliban kill, tourture and maim
the innocent to control 75% of the worlds heroin traffic. They do so
under the guise of Islam.


Exactly. They are criminals (not sure about the "common" part). Since when
does a nation go to war to combat crime, however heinous? It is impossible
to fight a "war on terror (sic)" or even a war on terrorism; terrorists are
everywhere, and will strike targets of opportunity when they present
themselves, and most of these people cannot be identified before they commit
their particular crime.

Should bin Laden be dealt with? Absolutely. But apparently he is worth more
to the Powers that Be alive and free than dead. Look at all the power they
have gained by his being "at large."
