The Evil Bastards

"The U.S. official said "a political spinoff (of al-Qaida) is one of the greatest fears" of U.S. counter-terrorism authorities, in which bin Laden and the terror network follow the path of the Palestine Liberation Organization, Hezbollah and members of the Irish Republican Army. Over the years, those groups evolved from having an emphasis on committing terrorism into broader organizations with influential, widely accepted political wings."

Yes, you heard that right. One of the greatest fears of U.S. counter-terrorist experts is that terrorists will de-emphasize terrorism and attempt to persuade others of their views by more legitimate means.

Will this madman stop at nothing?
