Ein aufschlussreicher Artikel von David Burke über das Phänomen "al-Quaida", den ich euch nicht vorenthalten will:
[Links nur für registrierte Nutzer]The man sitting opposite me in the hotel room in downtown Baghdad was adamant. His group did not ever combine forces with al-Qaida. They had never done so and they never would. "We met some of them, but we have refused to work with them because it is too dangerous," he said. "They are really bloodthirsty people. They do not care if they kill honest Iraqi people. They are crazy, I tell you."
Interessanter Aspekt: Es geht nebenbei auch um die Verwurzelung des heutigen radikalen Islamismus in dem revolutionsorientierten Ideologien der radikalen Linken.
