Sure there is. Its basicly a large rant with all the problems he has with the US. Realisticly he probably doesn't expect us to do everything. He would probably be happy with us doing a quarter of the stuff on the list. Obviously everyone knows that wont happen so we kill each other. Saddly its the way the world works.
The issues he has with the US are totally rational and probably a fairly common view of us. Whats not rational is the part of him trying to kill people. And thats definitely a bad thing. Not everyone who may help him, is so firm however. They read the list and maybe they agree with it. Maybe they think the US is full of jerks so the support them. Not all of them are going to be as extreme however.
No one ever said you could sit down with Bin Laden and convince him he is wrong about us. When it comes to a lot of his followers however? Its entirely possible and has happened. The rational people who agree with his valid points get caught up with the nut cases too. Its a mistake to say they are all the same though, that none of them can be reasoned with or talked to.
