He says: additional thirty thousand soldiers, to defeat al-Qaeda in Afghanistan. He says: America will not become intimidated and will destroy their enemies, wherever they were hiding. This is not George Bush. That Barack Hussein Obama. It has been eight years and four months since September 11 and the U.S. Afraid of something again. The fear is all the same: al-Qaeda. But eight years and four months later, Al-Qaeda become different. The terrorist network proves that they can use a virtual communications really good.

It has been eight and a half years since Twin Towers were destroyed. It has been eight and a half years since the war against terror in Afghanistan began. After the second war in Iraq. Tthere is a changes going on in White House but America no longer feels safe.

Al Qaeda changed it's face. It expanded to the whole world. Become a network. The list of countries in which Al Qaeda has a bases really inpressive: Sudan, Nigeria, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Yemen, Somalia, Ethiopia, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Indonesia, Bosnia, Croatia, Albania, Algeria, Tunisia, Morocco, Lebanon, Philippines, Russia, Chechnya, Tajikistan, Azerbaijan, Dagestan, Kenya , Tanzania, Kashmir, India, United Kingdom, the Netherlands. Moreover, Al Qaeda can count on followers inside of the US: New York, Boston, Texas, Florida, Virginia and California - and in the UK, in London and Manchester. Supporters of Bin Laden were arrested in various places, in Jordan, Seattle, France, Denmark, Uruguay and Australia.

Economic and financial relations of al-Qaeda are impressive as well, it includes groups of Muslims from Kuwait, Qatar and Dubai. Cash flow is filled from the top 400 financiers, two-thirds of them - the Arabs, and others - Pakistanis and other Asians, with hundreds of companies around the world. There is a money laundering going on everywhere: from South America to the United States from Switzerland to Africa, the Middle East to the former Soviet Asia.

Media War is a fundamental aspect of the network of al-Qaida. Groups of programmers support the Web sites in more than eighteen languages, from Albanian to Swedish. Al Qaed has it's own schools of indoctrination and operational training in all parts of the world: Iraq and Yemen, and in the heart of Saudi Arabia, there is a financial network of al-Qaeda in Central Asia, and the headquarters of jihadism is in Indonesia. In Africa, the most functional structures are located in Uganda and Nigeria, Somalia and Ethiopia. Total transactions for drug smuggling, made by emissaries of Al Qaeda with Colombian drug cartels, have led to the fact that the operational core of jihadism has been settled in Latin America, in Bogota. The main purpose of Al-Qaeda is to equip their attacking ability with a explosive devices with radiological substances. Or with the chemicals, and biologically active substances.

Bin Lade gets radioactive material from Georgia. Because of its geographical position: Georgia is located between Russia, Asia Minor and Turkey. Georgia is a market for terrorists from all over the world. Because of it's customs. The borders are open for different kinds of chemicals and weapon.

Another reason is that Georgia was a natural reservoir of radioactive materials at the time of Soviet era. Another way, which is getting more and more important, passes through the former Soviet Union and comes to Pakistan, Afghanistan, Thailand and Indonesia. And the market is growing from day to day. And the problem is that "Terrorists Network" has no problem with the money to buy black market weapons of mass destruction.

In addition to drug smuggling A Qaeda gets a lot of donations from different Muslim organizations. Scattered around the world and firmly structured in the U.S. and Europe. And it gets Al Qaeda about from 300 to 400 billion dollars a year.
