As for talks, I doubt you'd get him to turn up.
Obviously he doesn't believe the offer of a truce is going to be accepted, but he isn't lying - we started the whole conflict, and we could end it just as easily.
They don't want him found, they don't want him killed, they don't want A Q to stop. Without him all that goosestepping shit they have pulled would be looked at in a brand new light.
I dont think its anywhere near as simple as that, us pulling out of Afghanistan and Iraq would help reduce the anger towards us, but it wouldnt stop it.
And anyway, Al Queda (crappy term but you know what I mean) feels it beat the USSR and can, given time do the same for the US.
Well, they'll still oppose us theologically, but ending military occupation and political interference would go a long way as a remedy to the situation. Again and again, the people behind the attacks have stated clearly that the coalition's foreign policy is the key reason for their actions, however much governments deny it.
they will talk ...
So far all they've found is innocent Pakistani and Afghanistani villagers. Not that they seem too concerned...
