But that sure as hell doesn't say that command and control has moved there. I'm not saying that terrorist shit doesn't go down in Pakistan. I'm saying that nobody knows what Al Quaeda is, where it is (or isn't), who runs it, or what's next. Al Quaeda is now like Quantum Mechanics and we can turn to Richard Feynman, considered to be the only person to ever understand it, for the answer, "Anybody who says they understand Quantum Mechanics doesn't." And I would say the same is true for Al Quaeda. But, if there's doubt, let's take a look at how well the Bush Administration understands them: Problem: Al Quaeda behind 9/11, may strike again. Solution: Invade Afghanistan, Invade Iraq, do some other security stuff. 5 Year Result: Al Quaeda still attacking, not understood. Analysis: That's not good enough, which means we've had a failure of leadership. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Introducing the Fusion Authority Quarterly Update. 80 pages of hard-hitting, up-to-date ColdFusion information by your peers, delivered to your door four times a year. http://www.fusionauthority.com/quarterly Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/message.cfm/messageid:213103 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.5
