Al-Qaeda in Iraq faces an “extraordinary crisis”. Last year’s mass defection of ordinary Sunnis from al-Qaeda to the US military “created panic, fear and the unwillingness to fight”. The terrorist group’s security structure suffered “total collapse”.These are the words not of al-Qaeda’s enemies but of one of its own leaders in Anbar province — once…

Iran – Not Done with Nukes After All?
So… Has Iran really stopped its Nuclear Weapons Program?
