You mean why has it worked repeatedly over history, time and time again? Because there are cumrags who think like you do, get lazy, and get suckered into arguing for a poor translation of the word. It doesn't mean truce. Can't get your head around it?

PS. Bin Laden isn't the ambassador of Islamo-World. Way to put him on a pedestal. There's a wrap sheet of wingnuts out there who'd replace him in a second. Zarqawi for example, doesn't even need the billions. They were hijacking planes when Bin Laden was learning to sharpshoot.
