The only "unified whole" that some islamist will settle for is a worldwide caliphate.

If one has to look for who really act unethical and look for who is consumed with bloodlust one has to look no further than the man himself, Osama Bin Laden. There were reasons they were looking for him and reasons they took him out - 2,977 reasons. (I can't see it as justice, because nothing can turn back the injustices that took place during 9/11.) It was Osama Bin Laden who acted unethically, he wanted to mount a major spectacular event, and wanted to strike fear in people. He planned a terrorist attack had it carried through al-Qaeda who executed his plans in the terror attacks on innocent victims of 9/11. He claimed responsibility for the attacks. His own actions put him on the Most Wanted Terrorists list. He is to blame for his own death. I see it more as something he brought on himself.
