tejek, re:There is little evidence that we have successfully engaged them in "the financial field" Please, did you miss the near daily reports of bank account closings or blocks not only inside the USA but from our allies all over the world. re:In Afghanistan, word is coming out that the Taliban and the warlords are on the ascendancy and that Karzai only controls Kabul. I've read that a few weeks or was it months back, but our media seems busy chasing after some guy who cut off his wifes head and his bimbo girlfriend. Do you have any recent news links? I would expect there to be some ebb and flow of control as I don't think we've committed enough force and money to the effort in Afghanistan. re:If you believe that that these two events are minor, particularly when coming back to back to each other, I think it was a one time "big" event to show they are still kicking and an attempt to recruit some new members. Since they are sorely disrupted, again if we leave Saudi (for whatever reason) it sort of gives some Wahabis less to fight for. Either they're planning the "big one" for the USA or we've hurt them, have you seen any attacks since 9/11 in the USA?
