A 3rd alternative might be that al Qaeda is thinking tactically(short term) and not strategically(long term)? ...............
I think you give them too much credit. They are opportunists who do what they can do. Sure they have theoreticians and thinkers. Sure they can damage us. Perhaps with WMDs. But I think they do what they can, whenever they can arrange execution which can take a while, often sometimes their destructive acts are years in the planning and making.

A 3rd alternative might be that al Qaeda is thinking tactically(short term) and not strategically(long term)?Or how about: long term, but not strategically? It's their strategy vis-à-vis the west, the U.S., Israel, that seems like a dog's breakfast.
Thanks again dennisw.
