1. Ah, but you forget...
Germany had the worlds 2nd largest military, the largest air force, and 2nd greatest industrial capacity.

Japan had the worlds 3rd largest navy, the greatest industrial capacity in Asia, and had succeeded in cripling the American Pacific fleet.

Osama has... what, a couple hundred people? A few million dollars? I mean, how can Hitler and Tojo compare to that might!
