foreign policy might be helping terrorists indirectly i think the united states. american strategists would have to be fools not to see what al-qaeda is doing not to ask the question if it's good for al qaeda can it be good for us and not to look at us saad and say he may be a ruthless dictator and what he's doing but what comes after him when he falls i think al qaeda does its best work or it works best when it finds a country that is fundamentally a failed state in yemen somalia afghanistan under the taliban and i think in those conditions that's where al qaida can plan and recruit far better than it can when you have a a regime which is a hard line regime running the situation whether it's secular or whether syria torn apart by civil war and that that's it seems like a good environment for that i think i think that seriously. syria is really a potential disaster in that we could have there are a proxy war between the sunni and shia all over that region there already have sunni coming in from iraq they already have al qaida in there apparently. you could have al
