However, those who are willing to leave it at al Qaeda do not nearly go far
enough. Although the attack in London was not nearly as sophisticated as
either the March 11, 2004 attack in Madrid or the September 11, 2001 attack
against New York and Washington, it did require organization, timing,
planning, and money. This could not be accomplished by an organization
scrambling for its own survival in Afghanistan or western Pakistan. With
this attack, al Qaeda has revealed that they have a new base of operations
from which it can continue to strike against the free world. Increasingly,
it is becoming clear that this base is in Iran, which means al Qaeda is
surviving, and recovering, at the behest of the Iranian mullahcracy’s
geopolitical ally and military benefactor: the Chinese Communist Party.

THIS guy is in the twilight zone!
