Some interesting links in Daniel Drezner's Evaluating the Threat from Al-Qaeda, including an article by Georgetown University counterterrorism specialist Dan Byman. This is highly relevant to Robin's recent posts on the intelligence that sparked the current Orange alert, and her subsequent update today in Al-Qaeda On the Move?
The links in Drezner's post also serve as a very interesting update to my June 2002 post that asked What the Muhajir Case tells us about al-Qaeda's U.S. arm, and Dan Darling's June 2003 open-source intelligence backgrounder on Al-Qaeda in the U.S.

Here are some quick tips for adding simple Textile formatting to your comments, though you can also use proper HTML tags:
*This* puts text in bold.
_This_ puts text in italics.
bq. This "bq." at the beginning of a paragraph, flush with the left hand side and with a space after it, is the code to indent one paragraph of text as a block quote.
To add a live URL, "Text to display":http://windsofchange.net/ (no spaces between) will show up as Text to display. Always use this for links - otherwise you will screw up the columns on our main blog page.
