Thoughts for the Day

“There are no globalized, youth-led, grassroots
 social movements advocating for democratic 
culture across Muslim-majority societies.
There is no equivalent of Al-Qaeda 
without the terrorism.”
“We all hoped in 2001 that we could put in place 
an Afghan government under President Karzai
 that would be able to control the country,
make sure al-Qaeda didn't come back, and 
make sure the Taliban wasn't resurging. 
It didn't work out.”
“True enough, Osama bin Laden is dead and 
other al-Qaeda leaders have joined him. 
But, the assassination of Ambassador Chris 
Stevens and three other Americans 
in Benghazi is a brutal reminder that 
radical Islamic terror groups 
have not disappeared and certainly 
are not dormant.”
