I don't forsee Osama Bin Laden and the Iranian mullahs becoming allies for the time being. The Taliban oppressed Shi'ite Muslims in western Afghanistan for years, and many of them had at least some Persian ethnicity. Also, there were a series of minor border disputes which broke out periodically, and bin Laden was blamed in the Iranian press. Bad blood remains between them.
