Redefining terror

Article Abstract:

The predictions of the imminent defeat of Al Qaeda in Iraq after the death of Abu Musab Al Zarqawi are met with deep skepticism. Concerns are raised for the future nature of the conflict between Al Qaeda and the west on the grounds of the religious certainty the suicide bomber exhibited and about the inspiration his death would provide for his followers to achieve their religious-political objectives.
