Subject: [lit-ideas] with or without Bush

Stan maintains that if Bush had not been in office, Bin Laden would have been 
captured. As if a change of presidents could alter tactical and strategic 
factors that work to Bin Laden's benefit. Taken as a statement of convictions, 
Stan's hyperbole is hunky-dory. Taken as a tactical prediction . . . well . . . 
it's a fine statement of convictions.



A.A. Eric, are you that much of a fatalist?  Is Bin Laden that much in control 
that if another president had pursued him instead of Iraq, with the world's 
support, nothing would be different?
