I think there are about ten people lined up to take over, once one is killed. I wonder how long it will be before there is internal fighting because you know some of them probably get a little pissed that OBL sends people out to die for their cause and he is to big of a pussy to blow himself up.

I also think that when a top level member is killed it would be viewed similar to a US Senator/Representative, cabinet members, ranking department officials, etc (in the terrorists eyes). You can quickly realize how many "ranking" members there are, many of whom no one has ever heard of.
