Most Islamic charismatic leaders' organizations fall apart rather quickly after they die.
Islam is not very institutional as a religion, compared to Christianity for instance.
If ObL is dead, his movement will whither, imho.
The question is can we wage peace and help civil minded Moslems build a civic culture in the Islamic world?
