Al Qaeda Still Packs a Punch

Seth G. Jones on Why They Remain the Most Dangerous Terrorists in the World

Since the attacks of September 11, 2001, the United States has done a lot to weaken Al Qaeda. But a boatload of mistakes were also made along the way, and there’s plenty left to worry about. That’s the opinion of Seth G. Jones, author of Hunting in the Shadows: The Pursuit of al Qa’ida since 9/11, an account of the past decade of U.S. efforts to eradicate Al Qaeda and its affiliates. Jones drops by Zócalo to undergo a grueling interrogation by Editor T.A. Frank in The 3-Minute Drill.
