why do people keep referring to that criminal by his first name?
it's a form of familiarity .. something like 'dear enemy' !??
Our lives are so wrapped up with the existence of this criminal .. what is is about him that makes people call him 'Osama'? We don't refer to that other terrorist by any other than his last name: Zarqawi (may his name be erased forever, as an old curse goes)
Could it be because bin Laden has this gentle "I'm sorry, but I've got to do this to you" demanour, while Zarqawi is an obvious psychotic?
.. Just idle Sunday musings.
