You sound like George W. Bush's spokesperson.
All you need is money to keep Al Qaeda going.

so if i had millions of dollars, a terrorist army is just going to appear in front of me? i always thought that alot of recruiting and planning by people went into building a terrorist organization
money is an important role, but without good strategists, they're left with nothing but hi jackers and murderers....look at the rebels in the phillipines....all they do is take hostages in thier own country....even germany would be able to wipe them out in a few years if they wanted to

No what I meant was even if Osama or top leaders were captured Al Qaeda would have many to take their place. All they would need is a money supply that Osama provides for them.

lol @ van
yeah i kinda figure they would overlap... what i was heading towards above was questioning whether everything relays through a centralised distribution centre so information packets route through somewhere first.. call it a central communications headquarters something like
soldier -> satellite -> distribution centre -> satellite -> target
in which case the distribution centre would be the target... the satellites wont carry all the processing power, they're simply for ferrying information around... in very simple terms. take out the central point and you've broken the military's communication network.
like.. in the UK theres GCHQ 'goverment communications hq' and several smaller posts at bletchley park (the former hq, and the place where we cracked enigma) there are other posts like we have some in cyprus, the US even has a controversial one over here in a base in the north called Menwith Hill... i live in a town with a lot of military contractors and connections.. like we have a place that does all the maps of the world for our navy (and few lines of dents in fields here and there from when the germans tried to hit it on boming runs!) and we have various military contractors here and there.
smerlus:
you got it right when you said it's like the internet...if one thing goes down, something will take it's place....it may or may not be better and will temporarily disrupt things but i don't see how they plan on totally cutting off transmissions unless they plan on bombing the pentagon, norfolk and san diego...even them, i'm sure there's a couple places i'm missing

This coming from a college freshman who's never seen Scarface, called himself a pimp, then asked how to get into a girls pants. ::)
You can't argue with facts

I'm sick of these fucking terrorists giving Islam a bad name. They make it hard for us to live peacefully because they make us look bad.
