A truly evil man is evil because he/she knows that what they are doing is indeed evil, and care not.
Osama is wrong, bad, and stupid, but not fully evil - because in his mind, he really does think he is doing the right thing.
A truly evil person would be someone who is not insane, and wants to hurt or do wrong, just because they want to. (Not because they get pleasure - that would make them insane.) These people are truly rare.
Similar to the definition of a truly kind person. Most people do nice things because it makes us feel good, that is the primary reason - the pleasure we feel from knowing we've done good. It is very rare when someone does something good that they really didn't want to do, didn't enjoy the act, or get any pleasure from it - but did it soley because it was a good act. But that would be a truly kind person.
I dont know what I'm talking about btw.
