who do not think this is the work of AQ; they continue to think it's a lone psycho, or perhaps, two idiots, i.e., American militants or Americans who want everyone to think it's AQ.   What are the odds that two "idiots" could conspire and conjure up the nerve to execute these snippings *AND* escape? Coordinated hits, Yes... idiots... I think not. Training and expertise are clearly integral to this plot. Who *trains* for that? My gut still makes me say AQ cell.

Yeah, I no longer think it's a lone psycho (initial thoughts). There's just too much aforethought here. It seems "well-planned" out, there's the need for familarity with roads and escape routes, considerable distances, and cleverness in eluding police.....all without leaving many clues (if we believe police reports).
