"SANCTUARY: place of safety for a fugitive".  Yes, they are providing

The Afghan government do not need to provide anything material for bin
Laden; he has enough funds and contacts of his own.  All they need to
provide as "sanctuary" is to refuse to open their borders or otherwise
co-operate with the US.  If this in itself makes a nation as evil as the
terrorist and a legitimate target of US agression then you have a lot more
enemies than you think.

Well, maybe it's time to correct that.
