In his latest message, Bin Laden seems desperate to prove he's still in complete charge of things. Here's a big secret. No one is really in complete charge of anything...! Maybe in the days of pharaohs and emperors, but today's worlds has become too big and too complicated.
That's why it's delusional to write or speak about: The White House...the GOP...the FBI...Wall Street... City Hall ...Hollywood...Red Cross...Bears. Yeah sure, it's handy and it gives you a feeling there are actually large, efficient operations with one set of hands running them. Sorry, folks -- it's simply not true anymore. Because it's not possible anymore.
What's the lesson here? Just this. In a world of 6 billion straining, struggling ambitious human beings, there's far more chaos than control going on. But since you and I are are riding this tiger, it would be best to hang on a little tighter and little less gullible than ever.
