Al-Qaida follows evil force

The question of what caused 9/11 was chronicled thoroughly in Sunday's (Sept. 10) paper. I would like to suggest another reason for the attack that was not touched upon. That is, bin Laden and his followers listen to a dark, evil, unseen force that teaches them that murder, mayhem and destruction are good things and that they will be rewarded for them. All other explanations lend support or may provide rationalization to al-Qaida.
