Teribus--

Still waiting for--any--evidence, based on the specific current situation in the MidEast-- -as opposed to cherry-picked history--- that al-Qaeda has any chance to take over Iraq---ever.

If I felt you were worth my time, I could easily pick a counterexample to Operation Barbarossa---and point out the fallacy of your parallel. Sorry, I have better things to do.
(And I recognize the rather pathetic attempt to dodge my question).

Now where is your logic that al-Qaeda can take over Iraq? Which, as I've noted more than once, is what GWB--and now McCain-- constantly threatens us with.

I note with interest you're no longer denying that the Saudi regime, far from sympathizing with al-Qaeda, feels under threat by it. Maybe you're capable of learning after all.

And you may possibly have learned that "complete pillock" is not usually considered a logical response to a question--except possibly in your circles. Pity you don't get out more.

Awaiting your next calm, well-reasoned response.
