Too bad the Americans are our friends and Osama is not. But I actually prefer it that way around.

With neutral I don't necessarily mean a passive bystander as the Swiss model, but in the ideal case actively working that on both sides violance isn't accapted as a tool of politics and compromises with which at least the moderate can live are worked out to drain with time the support of fundamentalistic opinions away.
