I think the true OBL type only really care about their Islamic faith and getting western influence and people out of "their" country. The fallacy being that it is "their" country and not the country for all the people in it.

As I have usually stated, the only way to end this type of terrorism is to diminish the supply chain of suicide bombers. That is done via political/economic means. The recent changes in Iran only support this idea. If the terrorist leaders can not recruit the young martyrs, then they are done with as the people will no longer implicitly or explicitly support them. It takes time but I think the demise of the IRA gives hope for the future.
