#5 Instead of identifying nations that are being targeted by Al Qaeda, wouldn't it be easier to list the nations that aren't being targeted?

It seems Al Qaeda is waging holy war on the 21st Century, if anything.

#7 If the Chicoms can keep their western provence from blowing up and spreading, the West's battles with Al and the Qaedas would serve to weaken the West, which would help the Chicom's global position. Al Q is a self-funding unit, so they won't draw on the Chicom's resources. However, the Chicoms better start studying the physics of boomerangs, just in case.
