And the argument for why he favors Bush:
It is quite clear that Bush intends to attack the Muslim world (whether that be due to control of oil or the religious aspect is irrelevant). That is exactly what Bin Laden wants: a war. Anyone with the fervency of a spiritual leader of martyrs fully believes that their god will win the day. And so he favors the world's super power be led by a like minded individual, or at the least, someone who will engage on that level.
In essence, the victory for Bin Laden is the war, not the removal of injustice.
