There is no such thing as Al Qaeda. It is just an invention of the pols and the press to put a name and a face we can hate on everything from tribalism to Muslim extremism and gin up support for unnecessary but lucrative defense spending and war. It will be a long time before tribalism and extremism go away, but we can go back to minding our own business and not need to be so concerned about it anymore.

Spot on.
I don't think there's been an Al Qaeda in over a decade.
