Bin Laden: The story that needs to be told

[Chris Kromm]

A great story from MSNBC three years ago about how the CIA created bin Laden
during the Cold War. If he does indeed become the target of choice, it's our
job to make sure this side of the story is told loud and clear. Anyone have
any other good cites on this thread?

NEW YORK, Aug. 24, 1998 -  At the CIA, it happens often enough to have a
code name: Blowback. Simply defined, this is the term that describes an
agent, an operative or an operation that has turned on its creators. Osama
bin Laden, our new public enemy Number 1, is the personification of
blowback. And the fact that he is viewed as a hero by millions in the
Islamic world proves again the old adage: Reap what you sow.
