Farewell al Qaeda?

Another crackpot movement bites the dust?

"The reason: Al Qaeda has gone too far even for many jihadists to stomach. They are horrified by Al Qaeda's brutal campaign in Iraq, by the reality that most of Al Qaeda's victims around the world are Muslim and by the fact that the terror network has continued to target civilians for slaughter in the West."

...

"Recent polls show that Al Qaeda has hemorrhaged support in places where its terrorist campaign has reached people's doorsteps. By one measure, pro-Al Qaeda sentiment is now down to 10% in Saudi Arabia - and has dropped from 70% to 4% in the Northwest Frontier Province of Pakistan. The number of Al Qaeda sympathizers in Britain fell dramatically after the 2005 London bombings."
