520 _aHow much of a threat is al-Qaeda today? Ten years after september 11th, it remains shrouded in myth, lurking everywhere, ceaselessly plotting to kill innocent people en masse. While there ir currently extensive and ongoing analysis of bin Laden's compound in Abbottabad and what it containde, there has been little debate over his organization's viability.
