God Bless America
Bin Laden has dozens if not hundreds of agents at the ready in the U.S. and Europe, many of whom are educated Arab militants who receive sophisticated training in bomb-making and communications in Afghanistan. In recent months, police in Europe arrested 20 residents suspected of planning to bomb the European parliament in Strasbourg.
But it is Afghanistan where bin Laden has the means, the freedom and space to build up his network. Al'Qaeda now has some 3,000 members from 12 different countries in Afghanistan who fight for the Taliban in the 055 Arab Brigade, which bin Laden finances and commands.
From everything I have heard on CNN (yes they do have the best analysis of this) that this terrorist network is all interwoven in 60 countries and their analyst thought that Bin Laden and Sadaam were linked with Bin Laden supporters involved in this act of terrorism but it took more than BinLaden to pull it off! Wish I could remember who gave the analysis but he had a map of all terrorist organizations and where they were headquartered.
