You mean the way he sat back and motivated 11 of his followers to crash planes into buildings? Or the way he motivated al-Zarqawi to tear up Iraq for a few years?

You realize that OBL has never been much more than a motivating force behind the movement? He probably hasn't fired a weapon in anything other than self-defense since the early '90's.

First he was Azzam's functionary and posterboy, then he became al-Zawahiri's. He's never been much more than a motivating and uniting force.

Your criticisim of him for being what he's always been and dismissing it as not being able to do any better is completly ignorant of reality.
