Said Jerrli, who uses and pays dearly for Islamist lubricating oil and gasoline; or, does he have his own oil well and refinery in his basement?

Regarding Vet1971''s comments. The Arabs didn''t invent garbage. The so called "Arab numerals" where Indian(Hindu) numbers and the arabs just took credit for it - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arabic_numeral. Same goes for Shampoo ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shampoo). So, just because you say it''s yours, doesn''t mean it''s yours. Those guys(Indians), Persians and the Greeks invented most of what you Arabs claim.

Old news - now just public information

"Jihad ideology is spreading online
Radical tracts reach new ''foot soldiers''
By Mark Mazzetti / The New York Times
Published: November 14, 2006

WASHINGTON: As the radical Islamic ideology sometimes known as jihadism spreads globally through on- line forums and chat rooms, a group of obscure Arab religious thinkers may exert more influence than Osama bin Laden and other well-known leaders of Al Qaeda, a research group at the U.S. Military Academy has found.

In a study billed as the "first systematic mapping" of jihadist ideology, the Combating Terrorism Center at West Point has found that bin Laden and his deputy, Ayman al-Zawahiri, have had only a minor influence on the movement''s intellectual foundation. Among the network''s ideologists, they are seen more as propagandists than strategic thinkers.

And while the two Qaeda leaders have released a flurry of video and audio messages to their followers over the past year, the study found that the scholarly work of a group of Saudi and Jordanian clerics was resonating more deeply among those who may form the next generation of militants.

...

Although situated at West Point, the center is an independent think tank funded by private and government sources."

An update on "Duck and Cover" techniques for dealing with nuclear attacks will be coming from CBS security experts soon.

Hey, as*s*holes, without the West, you wouldn''''t have no INTERNET!!

Crawl back into your caves and clean out your fleas, miserable leeches.

It''s true the first digital computer was designed and completed by Alan Turing, a Britisher at Blechley Park who cracked the Nazi enigma code and was instrumental in winning wwII with his paper-tape drives.
But he used ARAB numerals, just like your computer does now. Or have you learned multiplication and long division with Roman numerals, or "Western Technology" as you termed it?

Funny you mentioned cleanng out fleas. It was the "Western" countries wallowing in fleas and stench when the Arabs invented soap. Perhaps your family does not use Arab inventions like soap because it is not a "Western" invention.

FeelFree1, your job must be to spend all your waking time midigating and marginalizing the threat of radical Islam, what does that treasonous job pay? What would makes more sense is you are a diehard militant. It is incomprehensible that every threat, every story about the radicals, from your perspective, is nothing more than fantasy, some gov. perpetrated "fear campaign". This agenda would only have any validity if it were not for the daily attacks and carnage brought to us by your radical brothers. However, your agenda of continuous denial is midigated by the single largest attack on American soil, namely 911.

A garbage story.

Is there a quota for how many times the word al Queda must be used in a news segment or news page?

Does the label "al Queda" actually mean anything anymore?

- or are they just stamping it on anybody they want? -- to keep fear going?

Must be.
