Modern Islamic militancy is varied and complex. Al-Qaeda is as much an ideology or a set of values as a single organisation led by a single leader. The values and ideas, the 'wants', of militants are very varied. Recent Islamic militants have shown many different motivations.

Interestingly enough people are kind of missing Ben Ali. He was overthrown and left the country. Ever since his leaving, Tunisia has been in an ugly state and residents are missing how comfortable they were when he was in power.

One of the things I personally didn't know about Al Qaeda was that some of the people involved are very smart people. The way they use their intelligence is different from how we would use them. I found this interesting because being an explosives expert sounds like it involves a lot of skill and knowledge.
