You can read it yourself and it's obvious.
Yeah industrial waste is bad, good point! Dude still subscribes to ideology that sees women executed for learning to read. Anyone who doesn't agree with his worldview is a "disbeliever" and an acceptable target for murder.
These are the insane ramblings of someone with zero ability to empathize with others or think critically about their beliefs. He believes in nonsense. Prophets on prophets until Mohammed came along and said "god is all powerful but I am the last prophet and there can be no prophets after me." Hmm, guess God isn't all powerful and the whole thing is a crock of shit then.
OBL was a typical Republican.
I was more trying to highlight the weirdness of feeling at the time that there was a wall of ultra-jingoistic nationalism in the wake of a huge tragedy (cf. the Dixie Chicks getting cancelled for not liking Dubya Bush), and then some people reading Bin Laden's work and trying to have a level headed conversation about the causes, impacts and diplomacy going forward in the face of "Saudi operatives attacked us, let's bomb Afghanistan(?!)"
It's a mad world.
