Anything's possible. But the real question remains - why does one politically smart and (unfortunately) successful attack follow two years of politically witless attacks?

I cannot answer your question as I disagree with the premise.

With decentralization of command, aq's leaders have been enabled to plan and execute operations they deem feasible in their individual areas of operation. Viewed from this perspective, I believe the attacks all make sense...though I agree they do not always appear to be linked in a rational way, the attacks you listed were certainly effective.

From my pov all terrorist attacks are politically incorrect.I don't know what a politically correct terrorist attack looks like.
