Officials were surprised that the terrorists were able to operate for years without being detected in a police state where civil liberties are largely nonexistent. http://www.harpers.org/AlQaeda.html   (3494 words)      Al Qaida - SourceWatch This is a complex issue but, putting it very simply, what you have in both cases is loose networks of likeminded individuals-sometimes they pay homage to some patron figure who they may never have met and with whom they have no concrete relationship.
