Ask Al-Qaeda

Al Qaeda's media arm, Al-Sahab, announced last month that Osama bin Laden's deputy, Ayman al-Zawahri, would take questions from the public in an "online interview."

More than 900 entries, some with multiple questions, were posted on a militant Web site before the January 16 deadline.

So far, al Qaeda hasn't given any answers. Al Qaeda said only that al-Zawahiri would respond "as soon as possible," and the questions disappeared from the site after the cutoff date without any response.

It is impossible to confirm independently whether any of questioners are really active fighters. Nor is it possible to verify that the interview offer really came from al-Zawahiri, although it was posted with the logo of Al-Sahab, which issues his videotapes.

Oh, this is rich. I wonder if * submitted any questions? If so, what do you think he asked?

1. Dear al Qaeda: I've been happily married for many years, but I've met another woman

at work who I find myself attracted to. "Condi" shares my attraction, and has made it clear she's willing to pursue it. I want to be a good husband and father, but I can't stop thinking about her. What should I do?

2. Where are you?

5. "Dear Bin Laden - when are you going to strike again?"

"I'll make sure that nobody gets in your way, just let me know when and where so I can make sure not to be there"

3. "If I were to visit you, how would I get there?" "Where in Karachi are you staying?"

4. I think those questions are fascinating. I tend to think that all OBL's followers

are in lock-step, but there's dissension even among them. Thanks for posting this!
