Oh, here we go, Al-Quaeda...

Yep. Here we go alright. Was there any doubt? One thing you learn in debate. Don't make a comment that will put you in a corner. The left never seems to learn this lesson. They constantly position themselves so that later on they look positively stupid, with no wiggle room. It was a given that al Qaeda and the Taliban operated throughout the region. They were almost a religion, or a subset of a religion. Those types of efforts don't stop at borders. Duh!
