"How Al Qaeda inspires the disaffected may be its most potent weapon - more so than people like Zarqawi. The beliefs that inspired these men are far more difficult to counter. Both the Canadian cell and Mr. Zarqawi were self-motivated - not direct recruits of the bin Laden organization. Experts say it thus may be important to remember that the biggest threat from Al Qaeda is not its people, but its ideas, and the manner in which they inspire the disaffected and angry in Muslim communities worldwide."
