After all, killing political dissidents forms the core of totalitarianism.

Just trying to shake the hornet's nest here...
1) Osama wants the world to become one big fundy Muslim state. The only way he can be appeased is by giving him that state. Israel and the US doing "bad stuff" is just an excuse used to gain popular support.
2) Osama is not a political dissident. He is an enemy, trying to destroy civilization as we know (and like) it. Political dissent is one thing, terrorism is quite another.
3) I don't give a rat's arse how desperate anyone is; terrorism (as in: blowing up innocent civilians, on purpose) is wrong, period. If it's the only way you can fight, then DON'T FIGHT. Take a look at non-violent solutions, like Gandhi did, for example. Terrorism is just taking the easy (and evil) way out.
