I don't know about that... Bin Laden's been pretty pissed with America since we left him high & dry in Afghanistan in the late 80's. If anyone can be blamed for that it's probably Reagan. But IMO using today's reality as a basis of judgement for cold war actions is largely irrelevant. But of course it's relevant to Bin Laden, which I guess is all that matters.
