Very nicely put.

And he laughed at pre-9/11 efforts to make the issue a "Law Enforcement"
effort (from his fatwa in 1996 until 2001). At the very least, he's been on
the run for nearly four years and much of his hierarchy is dead or in jail.

To call it a war on terrorism (a tactic) is like having a war against
pincers movements or end-runs.
