It seems very odd to me that you respond to my comment with this comment. If you don't think bin Laden means what he says, isn't that a general point that should be a top-level response to the post? Shouldn't this be a response to the Prussian talking about the word "freedom" at all, rather than deep in this thread about "freedom" vs "liberation"?

It seems to me that "liberation of women" is more specific than "freedom". But maybe you are right.
