So five member of the Bin Laden family were gathered together and flown home a few days after September 11. Doesn't sound too surprising, and it doesn't sound too inconsistent with the suggestion that a few others might have been as well. Twenty members in the States isn't that large a nunber in an extremely wealthy extended family, after all. And getting home and away from the United Sattes woudl have been a pretty natural thing to want in the circumstances.

Not that important either way. But Michael Moore strikes me as one person Americans have good reason to be proud of.
