"P. Williams shot that argument down. It is all about planning, coordination, and getting them in the country."
That makes no sense. Al Qeada has been attacking us for close to 15 years. Do you believe that they haven't used nukes on us because they haven't finished planning, they are still coordinating, or because they haven't gotten them (the nukes) in the country yet? If they haven't gotten that done yet, either they can not, and I have a significant problem believing that prior to 9/11/2001, or they don't have them.
"Also thy have to follow Sahria Law. Thy must get essentially the "blessing" or the go ahead from a cleric or a number of clerics to OK the slaughter of innocent, non-combatives. They also must allow for a truce or submission. If this is ignored or refused the attitude is "well we covered all of our bases. The West has no one to blame but themselves." Kind of like the last few tapes that were out."
They got the blessing for 9/11/2001 and can not get it now? With nukes?
They have never called for nor allowed any opportunity for a truce/submission. They hide in caves. They don't want to negotiate. They do not want a truce, they do not even want submission. They want us DEAD.

It makes sense if you realize that they're not about "shooting from the hip" the first chance they get. I read somewhere that al-Qaida has been working on the nukes (the whole plan and all that it entails) since 1995. And also, I read somewhere that they were going to use these nukes for a very large and coordinated attack on the U.S. -- in conjunction with something going on in the Middle East at the same time.
So, that would mean that they would employ other methods of terror attacks (just like they have done) -- while still working on all the facets (of what it's going to take) for this *very large and devastating attack* on the U.S. -- in conjunction for whatever they have in mind for the Middle East (which probably involves Israel and eliminating it).
It makes a lot of sense to me -- unless you just think that they are a "shoot-from-the-hip" group, consisting of people who are totally undisciplined.

Agreed on both your points but let me go a little further. They do not care whether we live or die but they want a super Islamic state or what is also known as the 'caliphate'. In my opinion, they do not feel we can destroy all of them nor them all of us. Instead, a nuke or two going off here in the USA gets us out of the ME and focused on rebuilding our country. Meanwhile, they establish the caliphate, attack and attempt to destroy Israel and conquer neighboring oil states with Russia's blessing. We had better start building strong civilian defense and our own energy supply. That is how we can survice and destroy our enemies.
