Some interesting ideas, but I disagree with the general conclusion about the organization. I am in the midst of gathering material and doing a rough draft of my thoughts on the subject. Claiming he was the hero of global jihadists seems a tad disingenuous, and indicates that there is probably a little more homework to be done.

I think that until he got blowed up there were a lot of wannabe jihadi who were admiring the way he thumbed his nose at the U.S., however mistaken he was as he did it. He may not have been the most strategic thinker of the bunch, but he knew how to create a mythos around himself.
