I think it's much more important for the West to pay attention to Al Qaeda's message and think of the political ways to counter that.

I think it's gone way beyond political solutions, for now.

All of these spellings are correct (unfortunately):

jihad
jihaad
jehad
jehaad
gihad
g-had
gehad
gehaad
cihad (has jihad on it)

and so on....

As a rule of thumb,
just like gang bangers, jihadis
spell JIHAD according to their
language and ethnic identity.

And of course, what jihad
means to each one varies
widely.

You're welcome.

'Ping!' As many anti-terrorism experts and academics have said, the war on terror is a "War of Ideas"—and the Internet the Arena.

Yes, whereas if you send a very highly encrypted message, then intelligence services can pick up the fact that there is a very highly encrypted message crossing the Net and they will pay attention to it and go and crack it.

This is unlikely. There is not enough resources to crack every encrypted message. They can only target encrypted messages between suspects that have already been identified.

There are a number of webmail sites that support secure (https://) connections, and if the message is exchanged among users of that site, it will never leave the server except via SSL.

And, recent versions of sendmail support secure transport of messages between servers, using TLS (similar to SSL). Once the sendmail is configured (a relatively simple task), it will automatically negotiate a secure connection with the sender or receiver, and fall back to non-secure if one or the other doesn't support it.

Add in the PGP-enrypted messages that many people send out of principle, plus people using the digital signatures that are easily installed in Outlook, Outlook Express, Thunderbird, etc. and there are so many encrypted connections of all types that intelligence services could never encrypt more than a minuscule fraction.
