Sure he doesn't.  That's why I've seen reports from two sources (can't
remember which ones) that bin Laden owns an air field large enough to fly
commercial jets (where it is suspected (known?) that he trains terrorists
on using aircraft).

It's not really surprising that they deny it.  They may tacitly support bin
Laden, but I doubt they want anything to do with the fallout from this sort
of act.  The US is generally a sleeping giant, but once we are woken up...
