No Al Queda!.........................?

Ok a lot of people are getting crazy on me so I'm going to post standard facts... (copied)

The leadership of Al Qaeda has become geographically inaccessible, since 9/11 and the launching of the War on Terrorism and due to its secrecy and structure of semi-autonomous groups, the size and degree of responsibility for particular attacks are difficult to establish.

What exactly Al Qaeda is, or was, remains a difference of opinion for some. Writer and journalist Adam Curtis believes that the idea of Al Qaeda, as a formal organization, is an invention of Americans. He claims the name was first brought to the attention of the public in 2001 at the trial of Osama bin Laden and four men who were accused of the 1998 U.S. embassy bombings in East Africa. In a court of law, the U.S. Department of Justice was required to prove that Osama bin Laden was a leader of a criminal group. The name of the organization and elements of its structure were provided by Jamal al-Fadl, who declared himself as a founding member of Al-Qaeda as well as a former employee of bin Laden.

In actuality, bin Laden and other claimed members had become the focus of a loose alliance of cynical Islamist militants who were attracted by the new strategy. There was no organization. These were individual radicals who planned their own operations and looked to bin Laden for financial support and aid, however; he was not the leader of these individuals. In fact, to date, there is no evidence that bin Laden has ever used the term “Al Qaeda” to refer to the name of the organization until after 9/11 when he learned of the name in which the Americans had created.

During and after the trial, many questioned the trustworthiness of al-Fadl’s testimony because of his history of dishonesty and due to the fact he was testifying as part of a plea bargain agreement after being convicted of conspiring to attack U.S. military institutions.

"Al Qaeda is not an organization. Al Qaeda is a way of working ... but this has the hallmark of that approach."

Hilary Clinton: Sep 10th 2011
Al Queda have sent us a new threat "Smirks" but we all knew this was coming anyway if this continues we will have no choice but to take action.

Anyway I'm interested on your thoughts, just throwing one side of the debate at you so don't take it too seriously

Maybe but to say that "The name of the organization and elements of its structure were provided by one man "Jamal al-Fadl" who was given a plea bargain agreement in exchange for information makes it hard too believe anything is true, seeing as nothing can be verified also the Taliban and Osama are against the west so they wouldn't show any remorse but that's does not mean they were responsibly. As they have never admitted the fact.

@Every1diesalone
I'm not saying the attacks are fake what I mean too say is this... Taliban vs West: yes we can all accept this fact because there is evidence to proof this. If we look at Tony Blairs statement on "Al Queda being a method of thinking" this has to mean that Al Queda is more like a database for criminal methods and not an organization so if any attack is unconfirmed they bring Al Queda into action. My only grudge is a country should not be able to invade on unsubstantial evidence

I could go on forever, I'm looking for someone to proof me wron

I thought the Taliban took responsibility for the car bomb?

Oh I forgot too say, what about the C.I.A admitting that Al Qaeda don't exist, and now conveniently a Human rights organization have found documents in Libia stating that the C.I.A, MI6, Al Quaeda and Gadafee's forces were working together after 9/11.

Your missing a piece of history, America first heard of Al Qaeda after the first attack on the World Trade Centers, when their plan was to blow the base of the towers to collapse the buildings, but the amount of explosives in the car bombs just wasn't enough. After that President Clinton had spy drones fly over Afghanistan and spy on Al Qaeda training camps, we fired a few cruise missiles into Afghanistan. People often criticize Clinton for not being more aggressive with Al Qaeda, CIA even have shown footage where Osama Bin Laden was in this training camps, this video has been declassified and open to the public for almost a decade.

Al Queda, I never heard of but Al Qaeda, I have.

And you are taking most of the quotes out of context
