True, he walked away from billions but he didn't walk away from the public spotlight. Which tells me, to some extent, Bin Laden absolutely cares about the desires of this world, as twisted and sinister as they may be. No, he may not give a shit about running water or ESPN, but in his own way I think he's concerned about his image and the perception he has around the world. He strikes me as a man that is self absorbed. This is not your run of the mill suicide bomber or attention seeker. In fact, he just might be the biggest coward of all.
Sure he's free, I suppose. But is his definition of freedom the same right now as it was eight years ago? And as long as we're keeping score, Bin Laden hasn't inflicted harm on Americans in eight years; knock on wood.
