About an hour afterthe bombing campaign began, Americans were dumbstruck to see the placid face ofthe enemy, Osama bin Laden, in their liv-ing rooms.

The church hassignificant unresolved problems with thesociety, among them its gross disobedience to the previous Pope. Benedict wasdetermined to try to end a schism with amovement that exhibits a fervent piety heshares and is trying to encourage in Europe, where SSPX is strongest. But almostsimultaneous with the Popes announce-ment, a Swedish-TV interview surfaced inwhich SSPX bishop Richard Williamsonmatter-of-factly denied the existence of theNazi gas chambers.
