#2 good Stratfor commentary (I usually get mine from Al-Aska Paul) - Perv's in a tight spot, we need to keep the pressure on him while hoping th eMMA nuts don't kill him. Either way, Pakland either gets with the kill-Al-Qaeda program or becomes a target

#3 Stratfor used to be good, back before they raised their prices sky-high and started devoting most of their screen real estate to oil company topics of interest. Ah well, happens with most internet phenomenons, I suppose. Start out great, then peter out. It's happening here, too, what with the site owners' refusal to police the trolls. Due to not getting smacked, the trolls are growing and gathering strength, as well. Same thing happened when Stratfor tried to implement a public message board.

#7 Yeah, but what happens if al Qaeda adopts a strategy revolving around the November elections? That is, to dial operations back a notch and lower their profile just enough to allow the Western fifth-column media to lend credence to the Quislingcrats' notion that the Islamic terrorism threat is "exaggerated"?

Donald Sensing has said that al Qaeda's not exactly in the first rank of strategic planners. Granted, but the strategy I've outlined above gives them upside in two big areas: first, it gives them time to lick their wounds and regroup for the next round of high-profile ops; and second, by indirectly aiding the election of a Quislingcrat US President, they assure that the 82nd Airborne Div., 75th Rangers, etc., will be replaced with Officer Friendly reading from his Miranda Warning card translated into Arabic.
