    Don't take it personal, I would have found it equally funny had it been directed at anyone else :).

    To see far is one thing, going there is another.

    I'm not sure, but I think that's what he meant. At least, that's what my sarcastic reply would've meant.

    Why are you asking me? I didn't come up with the number, I just quoted it. I did, however (since you asked) do a search for al-qaeda attacks and found the following post-911 from different sources, not the British guy:

    Definite major bombings:
    Spain
    Riyadh
    Saudi Arabia (twice)
    Casablanca
    British Consulate
    HSBC Bank

    Just listed as attacks:
    Tunisia
    Pakistan
    Yemen
    Kuwait
    Bali
    Moscow
    Mombasa

    So that looks like 14 that I found in about five minutes. Again, don't know if all or how many of these were considered "major" or if the British guy had others in mind. Nothing more in-depth can be found from him on the web.

    Mango needs to jump in, he is much better at this kind of thing than I.
