In one of my darker moods
I came up with the idea of removing everything that makes him a man (castration and a frontal lobotomy) and dropping him off in front of the Taliban HQ, a drooling snivelling eunick (sp?) but quite alive (so he doesn't become a martyr), as a warning to other terrorists.

Nope
frontal lobotomy
He must remain completely self aware and cognizant of his condition and degredation

Why so?
A lobotomy will render him in no shape to do any further harm. It will also serve the purpose of deterrence. Castration will also enhance deterrent value. I suppose the Supreme Court will have to rule on the question of "cruel and unusual punishment." I'd argue that anything calculated to deter is not cruel, though it may well be unusual. If they give the okay, go for it.
What else matters? Please no vengefulness or sadism. I'm not into that. I just want the problem solved.

Exactly
The whole intent of this dark scheme (which I would never expect to have enacted of course) is as a deterrent. Who would want to go through the rest of their lives as a completely impotent (both sexually and intellectually) man. The lobotomy also prevents any other terrorist schemes to come from that mind. If he kept full use of his intelligence, I would expect he would use it to strike back still. It isn't so much meant to be a lifelong torture for him as a symbol for those that remain.
Mind you, I'm not really this cruel, I just needed to give the reptillian part a little leash after the attacks; and that's what it came up with.

Now, my plan . . .
. . is to add an Osama Bin Laden exhibit to the national zoo (bullet proof glass all around, of course). This should be particularly popular around feeding time (pork sausage).
Of course, we will have to let it be known that due to Bin Laden's health problems, we will fairly soon need a replacement for the exhibit and are evaluating other specimens in the wild.

Hmm. I been thinking about this, too.
Something along your original lines, but less "West": rebuild Afghanistan. It would require crossing a few hurdles though, such as removing the Taliban from ruling power and convincing the Afghani populace to stay/return. For best effect, it shouldn't be the US turning it into a model country. Instead, countries of diverse culture should help, e.g. India, China, someone from Africa, someone from Europe.
Actually, now I think about it, the key is getting the Afghani population up and running as a people but without the Taliban in power.

Cutting Things Off/Out
Go ahead and rid him of his hands, legs and toungue. This is much crueler than the lobotomy, unless you're willing to mess his mind up to the point where he gets occasional Grand Maul seizures.
Then he sits around the rest of his life grunting, but can't write anything down. In Afhanistan, he starves because he can't get to the food.
While you're at it, bring him into the United States and make him attend Bob Jones University, or Baylor. That should pretty much do it. Either he'll get Jesus or his mind will turn to mush in the ensuing fundamentalist meltdown.
