It seems the Iranians are not far from the truth in their statement: For his part, the Algerian president said that his country is prepared to expand cooperation with Iran in all fields, including the campaigns against terrorism and illicit drugs. Terrorist groups like Al-Qaeda have given some powers a pretext to implement their plots against Islam in the name of the campaign against terrorism, Bouteflika observed. “However, Al-Qaeda was in fact created by them and is an extremely suspicious phenomenon,” he added. [here] From BBC: The reality was that bin Laden and Ayman Zawahiri had become the focus of a loose association of disillusioned Islamist militants who were attracted by the new strategy. But there was no organisation. These were militants who mostly planned their own operations and looked to bin Laden for funding and assistance. He was not their commander.

It made them identifiable as a group and therefore made it easier to prosecute any person associated with Al Qaeda for any acts or statements made by bin Laden—who talked a lot. ... But in the wake of panic created by the attacks, the politicians reached for the model which had been created by the trial earlier that year: the hijackers were just the tip of a vast, international terrorist network which was called, “Al Qaeda.” [more]

were still in progress. To SEE it go [here

- The basic truth is that Al Qaeda does not exist and never has. Al Qaeda
is a manufactured enemy who was created by the Bush Administration in
order to have an excuse to wage a war for the control of the world"s
