I hope that Israel flourishes, I just don't think that Israel is worth ‘an American life or an American dollar’

Bin Laden's long-standing support for the Palestinians against Israel also appears to have been learned at his father's knee.

He (Osama bin Laden) doesn't want to fight this war forever. A lot of people mistake him as someone who can't get along without fighting. But that's not clearly the case.

I happened to do the research on the links between al Qaeda and Iraq. (MATTHEWS: And what did you come up with?) SCHEUER: Nothing.

I don't consider Osama Bin Laden to be a terrorist. I consider him to be a resistance fighter.
