President Obamas advisers give him credit for energizing the Arab revolts and saving the Libyan rebels. For al Qaedas leadership, this is all a gift from Allah.
Al Qaeda centrals views are detailed in the latest issue of their English-language propaganda magazine Inspire, which features a special section on The Revolution. American-born cleric Anwar al-Awlaki writes in an essay entitled The Tsunami of Change that, Our mujahideen brothers in Tunisia, Egypt, Libya and the rest of the Muslim world will get a chance to breathe again after three decades of suffocation. For the scholars and activists of Egypt to be able to speak again freely, it would represent a great leap forward for the mujahideen.
Al Qaeda has always recognized that the greatest obstacles to jihadist progress in the Middle East were what they call the apostate regimes, the generally pro-Western kings and authoritarian rulers who have kept a lid on violent extremists like al Qaeda and other groups. As these regimes totter and fall, the conditions are being created for the kind of radical change the Islamists have been working towards for decades.

Have no idea but it should be shut down and worry about it 10 or 20 years from now. :)
Obama is getting what he wants. He is the Master of Disaster. The Black Cloud. Chaos is his Game. He sees himself as Obama of Arabia.
Education and awareness are the weapons of choice for their young adults. Do you have any idea of net penetration and participation?
The sheer presence and awareness that is a western device is GREAT by itself and should almost be enough to make the elder illiterate fockers quiver.
I am sure they love the net, cars, ideas, communication and music... thus its one hell of a weapon.
Is there anyone that didn’t expect this? Every person with their head outside of their ass saw this coming. Of course that still leaves the problem of the current Obama regime now arming these people.
And two years left still.
Now, now - give credit where credit is due. Obama was on the golf course when this was being set up, and on vacation when it was carried out. It's just so frustrating when a woman's work isn't acknowledged:
