what a twit!!!!, page-8

He is how ever partially correct.

it will never be stamped out and it can never be given in to...some what of a paradox.

The only possible solution is through negotiation.

Most on both sides will not like the idea, they rarely do.

Israel and Palestine,India and Pakistan, Prodestants and Catholics etc all hated the idea of negotiation, for not to win the negotiation is giving in and losing.

Can any body unequivocally tell me what JI and Al Quaida's ultimate goal is?

JI have supposedly claimed rsponsibility for Embassy attack saying there will be more if Australian troops are not removed from Iraq.
I have some difficulty in accepting this as a reason behind the organisation. Bali was before Iraq and the coalition of the willing.

There is obviously some fanatical fringe groups being funded to cause mayhem but behind these disposable fringe groups is a structured organisation that seeking something else other the destruction of western civalization after all..their reported leaders have revelled in this western culture.
There is always a group ready to fight and destroy, they just need to be given a cause but behind them is the real agenda. Some say Bin Laden lost a major contract in the clean up of Kuwait oil fields to an American company that did something underhanded to win the contract and he swore vengence on the US from that moment.

Could it be that simple?

fighting the ants won't win this war...the queen needs to be brought into the open.
