Next -- if you're rebuilding an empire and trying to cure the "middle ages" period that Islam has drifted into, why would you announce yourself by attacking the giant?
Here you have Al-Quada and allied groups who, right now, are a bunch of yahoos. Why fuck with us when their real goal is to knock out Iraq and Saudi Arabia and Syria and all these camel jockey governments that have become the dominant force in the Middle East?
The answer is easy -- who toppled the Arab government in Iraq? And who, now, is attempting to unite the tribal groups and create a muslim nation that isn't really an "Arab force?"
That's right, we're fulfilling Al-Quada's roadmap. Their real mission, right now, is not to topple us. Their mission is to topple Iraq, Iran, Syria, Saudi Arabia and whoever else.
They knew we'd hit Iraq. They know we'll hit Iran and Syria. They know Saudi Arabia can't breathe as long as they maintain an alliance with us, which they must do because they're weak.
At the end of the day, it's a disturbingly simple plan. The headshop boys stay hidden while the wild and wooly 20 year old crazies keep us hopping and the hyper-defensive, American-hating Arab governments dare us to attack them. The more agitation, the weaker the totalitarian governments become. Maybe some will even fall without the US freaking out all over them. After all, what you don't hear, is that terrorist actions also take place in these countries. Buses and trains and shootings and bombs are going up all the time and the news thinks, har-har, Syria's dumberer, and doesn't give it coverage. On occasion, you hear about it in Saudi Arabia, yes? That gets covered because the media knows that the Saudi's are this far -- this far -- from crumbling like a house of cards.
