Bin Laden said that in a war, the US will come in and when they sustain a some casualties, they will pull out and run like cowards. Is the current anti war crowd that wants us out of Iraq before we have achieved victory playing right into his hands?

Who knows what they are saying?! I doubt they even do. They make it up as they go along. I saw them say, just the other day, that they think we should have gone to war with Saudi Arabia!
They just use Osama as a red herring, in my opinion.

You are comparing apples and oranges!
So what if he said that? We should have never been there as Iraq had nothing to do with 9/11 or terrorist. but bin Laden did and Bush just can't seem to find him!
Your premise of a military victory flies in the face of current wisdom! There will be no military victory in Iraq (as stated by the US military commander in Iraq last week) so bin Laden was right. George HW Bush was right, and Gerald Ford was right! It was Bush who was stupid!
The government upped the reward for bin Laden to 25 million! Lets see, that's less than 1/4 of Cash Lotto last week

No, we have validated Bin Laden by starting a war in a nation, Iraq, that had nothing to do with the 9/11 attacks. He knew the attacks would spark this current Administration to attack the WRONG country. We played right into his hands by sqaundering our resources in Iraq. We still haven't caught him, Tom, if you haven't noticed, more than 5 years after the attacks. Don't you think this is a little wayward? Terrorists are now emboldened by the fact that the world is now against us for our unwise decisions in this war.
I have heard several Gulf War veterans criticize this current war, so you can't blame it on the anti-war crowd. If you want to place blame, put it on the Administration. The current war protestors aren't the flower hippies of the past, but educated individuals who know that we have screwed up, and don't want their children to pay for it.

What Bin Laden thinks or says should not play a role in defining US foreign policy.
US actions should be based on what is in the best interests of the country in the long run. If that involves withdrawing our troops from Iraq right now then that should be course taken. Bin Laden's opinion on any such matter should not be considered.

If you read some basic history you would know that it was the "war crowd" who bolstered, paid and armed Bin Laden in the 1980s to fight the Russians in Afghanistan. The "anti war crowd" was opposed to their actions then and now.
get learned.

Bin Laden said he wanted America to run into the middle east where its troops would be target practice.
Bush played into his hands, thus validating Bin Laden's strategy.

i imagine Osama bin encumbered is only a make up by technique of the western international locations regardless of the truth that he truly exist.no longer a lot of a proof he plotted the 9/11.perhaps an anti-Islamic propaganda.only perhaps,no longer particular. Like KMI stated,they don't desire him anymore.it truly is likely reason they use him to invade middle East one by technique of one.

The anti-war crowd is expressing their freedom of speech.
It is NOT a sign of support for Bin Laden. BUSH hasn't done a lot to get Bin Laden anyway.

Where is Bin Laden by the way? Weren't we supposed to capture him or something? Wasn't it your Bush that took our military resources away from the original enemy? We aren't validating him and he's supposed to be caught anyway, right?
