It describes Al-Qaeda as, essentially, an Open Space Organization,
running on passion, responsibility and so on.  >>

Chris;

A great analysis of the situation and great strategic discussion.  Thank you
for finding that set of articles.  Of course, Al-Qaeda isn't an OS
organization because it lacks the main, key ingredient---Love.  And
Corinthians gives pretty clear definitions of the meaning of something that
lacks love.  It has no meaning.  Nonetheless, it is still very dangerous, as
Don Beck's article posted in mid-september points out.  As he said, Post
Moderns (which are heavily represented herein) would be the first to have
their throats slit should Osama be successful.

So, your questions are certainly thought provoking and will undoubtedly
generate lots of discussion.  More on the questions later.

Sincerely,

Paul Everett
