Should the West not back down then much of the "civilised" world will be destroyed in World War III

Wishful thinking on your part. You talk as if OBL has a nuclear arsenal at his fingertips. You honestly think Americans are going to say "back off, give ém whatever they want?" I case you haven´t noticed ALOT of American´s want BLOOD for 9.11-one nuke goes off anywhere in the Western hemispere and I predict you will see (right or wrong) American streets filled with Arab blood.

I don't know about that. I do know that Osama would exploit that. It would fit his purposes perfectly. I think that the lack of solidarity among Arab nationals and Muslims in general is unappreciated in America. They are very divided and callous toward their own. I'm sure all the anti-American regimes are making propaganda out of the smallest Arab-bashing incidents and entirely ignoring all the kissing-up going on with Amreican Muslims and Arabs.

Bin Laden doesn't care anything about Americans. Any Arabs living in America are only important if they will work for him or if he can exploit them for propaganda. Remember a few days ago when that young Arab, whose mother almost was killed in WTC, went off and joined up with bin Laden so he could kill Americans? That's Osama's idea of a useful American.

We shouldn't be too content with the idea of becoming as crude as our enemies. That's how they win, by reducing their victims to their level as they have done with Israelis. We should make them die in large numbers.

I would expect that terrorist strongholds and camps in Kosovo, Chechnya, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iraq, etc. will be nuked if Allah's suitcase is used in America. Or if it is used in Europe or to de-stabilize Saudi Arabia/Kuwait.
