Al Qaeda's second in command Ayman Al-Zawahiri has surfaced again, this time threatening more attacks against the U.S. and the West.
A lesson in strategy here...
Osama said early on his goal was to destroy America's economy, the engine that supports all our incursions into foreign nations. After his attack on the Twin Towers, the results have been successful beyond his wildest imagination.
That attack resulted in hundreds of billions wasted on massive new layers of supposed enhanced security, huge new bureaucracies and thousands of freedom-robbing new laws. The spending and the bureaucracy continues to grow, the laws get more onerous by the day, and all Al-Qaeda needs to do is send some stumblebum idiot over every now and again to botch a gasoline bombing attempt - right past all this massive and incredibly expensive new security we have - to keep us forever in a state of national panic and fear.
And the occasional threat, as stated above. Al-Qaeda has learned that a nation full of creampuffs who will give up everything to be "safe", will respond to another vocal threat just like Pavlov's dogs did to a ringing dinner bell.
The latest message, which cost Al-Qaeda no money and no lives, will have the same effect here as before. Billions more dollars thrown down the rabbit hole on more of that supposed security, and more of our freedoms lost.
Osama's real goal, but far better than he ever dreamed of.
Amazing what a few dozen foreign malcontents - with nothing more than a video camera - can do to a nation led and controlled by gutless cowards.
Will there ever be another attack as horrible as the 911 attack?
No.
Al-Qaeda knows that such an attack could easily result in the United States finally taking the gloves off and literally wiping them from the face of the earth.
So, expect a few more stumblebum amateurs, sacrificial lambs as it were, and the occasional new threat from Al-Qaeda's leaders.
That's all its taking to destroy us, along with the insane policies of a government that has no clue.

Thanks for sharing the pics & stories. That closing post was the saddest thing I ever read. I hope you sold everything at a comfortable profit and were able to get what you wanted when you relocated.
As to this post, I am convinced that there is a method to the madness to which the economy is being subjected, and the Establishment wants itself and its cronies in possession of all resources so everybody else in the country must bow to their whims: It's not rocket science (pardon the pun), just standard authoritarian subversion.
