"'Bin Laden may have used the murder of Massoud as a means to win support with the Taliban at the precise moment he knew he would need that support most, because he [bin Laden] was also planning the bombings in the US,' said a Western diplomat. 'But I doubt he told the Taliban about the US bombings, which is why they are so shocked.'" From Lahore. Daily Telegraph, UK.
