"In his speech, Zawahiri spoke more in sorrow than anger when he gave Americans "a final piece of advice." He said that Americans had again elected leaders who would keep the status quo in U.S. foreign policy toward the Islamic world. Noting that al-Qaeda had repeatedly warned against this course of action, Zawahiri implied that Americans would get no more warnings and that they would have only themselves to blame for future disasters."

I dunno. I detect a bit too much collusive empathy here.

This all comes off to me as angling and self-promotion. If Scheuer is wrong, it costs him nothing, no one will care or remember. If something does happen, anything, he can say he was right all along, so he attains perfect justification and apotheosis as a martyr to Bush's approach.
