Alright so we all know OBL, but I think that where he came from and how he came to be gets overlooked. The reason I bring this up is because of the recent revolutions and how this fits in with Zawahiri's original vision for an Islamist Middle East. I have written up a history of OBL here (Tough Vote: The Life and Radicalization of Osama bin Laden) which goes into the ideological shaping starting as a young man.

What do think al Qaeda's role will be in Egypt and Libya? Zawahiri has long waited for an Egyptian revolution will he, if he is still alive, break with OBL to pursue his Egyptian cause? Let me know what you think.
