Ok as long as Alqeda/Taliban were fighting aganist Russia they were Holy Warriors, and Good guys, however when they turned against US they are terrorists now. Do you think the World is so silly to buy this argument.
the suicide attack against the CIA at Combat Outpost Chapman in Khost province on Dec. 30, 2009, was carried out by an al Qaeda operative named Dr. Abu Dujanah al Khurasani.

brother you are missing a point here that I am trying to make in all of my previous posts, it's not about persons or Groups, it's about ideology which is based on the principles of terrorism. I am avoiding to go at length on this topic in the absence of (Sunni-Wahabies) which is not fair in my opinion. Because one could think I am trying to propagandize against them which i don't believe in.
In short it's not hard to figure the ideology of Taliban or Alqaeda is based on the very same terrorist ideology from the day one it has not changed a bit before/after the afghan war, and it's only matter of time that they would show their true colors. You only consider them terrorists now because they blew up two towers in NY. If you study their history from the early days of Islam till todate you won't find any significant difference.
And it's the fundamental mistake that CIA and US made, they never bothered to understand their 'ideology' they never tried to look deep into their history therefore it resulted in all this mess that we all are suffering from today.

The Jordanian doctor arrived in a red station wagon that came directly from Pakistan and sped through checkpoints at a CIA base in Afghanistan before stopping abruptly at an improvised interrogation center. Outside stood one of the CIA's top experts on al-Qaeda, ready to greet the doctor and hear him describe a way to kill Ayman al-Zawahiri, the organization's number two and a man long at the top of U.S. target lists.
The Jordanian exited the car with one hand in his pocket, according to the accounts of several U.S. officials briefed on the incident. An American security guard approached him to conduct a pat-down search and asked him to remove his hand. Instead, the Jordanian triggered a switch.
A sharp "CLMMMP" coincided with a brief flash and a small puff of smoke as thousands of steel pellets shredded glass, metal, cement and flesh in every direction.

Khost is a sensitive issue because bin Laden never made it back alive to there. Those mujhadine will fight hard to avenge his death and take those responsible with them if necessary.
On September 26, 2009, the Al‐Fajr Media Center released the 15th issue of “Vanguards of Khorasan”, a well‐known Taliban propaganda magazine. The magazine issue featured, among other things, an interview with “Abu Dujanah al‐Khorasani”, a notorious jihadi cyberactivist.
Al‐Khorasani has since been identified as Jordanian national Hammam Khalil Abu Mallal al‐Balawi, the alleged perpetrator of a suicide bombing attack that killed eight people at a CIA base in the southeastern Afghan province of Khost.

Ok, so all the signals are out there and they are very loud but the US is just deaf. WTF? We think it's like some phenomena and we refuse to see that we are at war. WTF?
We sit in our living rooms and have fun and go about life like nothing is wrong and life is good... but we are at war. No one is even noticing. WTF?
Even 911 is forgotten. Oh, that was long ago, can't happen again, if it does, well then we'll deal with it when it happens, but it probably won't, pass the remote.
Ok, I'm getting an on demand movie and not going to worry about terrorism. I've got a nice bottle of cabernet, a nice cozy fire in the fireplace and F the world. Yeah America!!!

That is a very powerful bomb to go unnoticed by the driver.
The underwear bomber had too many details to explode.
Just heard on Dateline the Saudi Counter Terrorism official
was injured by an underwear bomber.
The Detroit plane bomber might have been drugged and incompetent.
