There is no terrorist group called Al Qaida. And, any informed Intelligence officer knows this. But, there is a propaganda campaign to make the public believe in the presence of an identified enemy. The country behind this propaganda is the US - Pierre-Henry, French Military Intelligence
In the past, the BBC did a special on how Al Qaeda had been used by the Bush Administration and their PNAC associates (Project for New American Century) to justify their war in Iraq. According to a senior US military intelligence official there are fewer than 100 so-called Al Qaeda operatives in the whole of Afghanistan.
Former British Foreign Secretary Robin Cook wrote that the word Al-Qaeda should be translated as "the database", and originally referred to the computer file of the thousands of mujahideen militants who were recruited and trained with CIA help to defeat the Russians.

The thing that gets me is when I bring these topics up with friends and family I either get ridiculed or ignored.
My credibility suffers and I hate it. Not my ego but my love. I can't stand the people I care about being manipulated this way, I know everyone must 'awake' on their own but surely it's not bad to give a nudge.
Thank the heavens I have you guys at ATS to talk to - I would loose my sanity otherwise!
Peace

Does anybody even know why we are in Afghanistan? Israeli gas pipeline? Rare earth elements ? Gold? Prepare to destroy Pakistan or Iran? Drugs? It's amazing what the American people have really put up with since GW took control. Is freedom worth fighting for or what? Will we just sit back and let our government and the Fed destroy our country and way of life for good? The PTB seem to be hellbent on destroying us if you step back and take a look for 2 seconds... Bin Laden has likely been dead for years. Such BS. Trllions down the drain and our economy in ruins. Sad state of affairs.
