Nonsense. al Qaida has no wish for outright governance. They simply need a safe haven from which to operate and attack us. Take Afghanistan for example. It was the Taliban, not al Qaida, that ruled that nation. They simply provided Osama and his organization a free hand to plan terror. The situaiton in Somalia seems similar. Hence why that area needs to be "fumigated." But ZERO NONE ZIP NADA plans of nation building.

That's funny since Osama bin Laden himself has called for restoration of the Caliphate and we remember the Taliban posing as a lawful government.

You think they do not want to govern? Yes, they want to govern the Caliphate.
