Ijaz was making the, correct in my view, point that Al-Qaeda doesn’t do assassinations. They are terrorists.

AQ did it, somebody else did it. Key point in there, if AQ did it, “it”, whatever “it” happens to be that day, is ALWAYS part of a larger plan.No, dammit!
The "nuanced" thinkers already decided that al-Qaeda dit it all by themselves, using their ATM cards and smoke signals.
Back to ECW and Survivor with you!

To: Fledermaus
But didn’t AQ assassinate the Afghan leader, Ahmad Shah Masoud, just prior to 9/11?
To: conservative blonde
Our descriptions are identical, including her possible motivation; yours is simply longer. The outcome, however, should have been obvious regardless.

i suppose its a possibility at this point (then again, just about anything is a possibility seeing we are just in the infancy of this crisis)
add to this all air travel in and out is now shut down per FNC . . .
To: Fledermaus
What I read claimed it was possibly AQ, since his assassins were Arabs, not Afghans, and because the timing was so curious. But who knows.
To: Judith Anne
Bhutto was safer under house arrest with Musharef keeping the people under strict marshal law. Methinks history will agree with you.
To: FreeReign
You dismissed Al Qaeda as a Red Herring and you compared Al Qaeda to such scapegoat objects as a gun and an SUV. As I intend to continue to do. There is no contradiction. A gun is a tool; An SUV is a tool. Exactly as al-Qaeda is. Tools are not "scapegoats". Is English your first language?
What part of "the problem is not al-Qaeda; it is with the providers of the means for al-Qaeda to exist" don't you understand?

Wasn’t that the Taliban? His assassins were Tunisian, not Taliban?
