Back to Afghanistan

islamoyankeeApril 20, 2004

Some of you may have heard of a country called Afghanistan. The US invaded in 2001 because the country was the home base of Al-Qaeda, the group responsible for the terrorist attacks of 9/11. The reason we believe AQ moved there is because Afghanistan was considered a failed state, which made it a haven for illegal activities, including planning terrorist attacks. To me the logical response to such a theory is that we should not let another state fail, least of all a state over which we have control.

Well, the collective (yes there is more than Ghost Dog and myself, although you wouldn’t know it from the majority of posts) decided if we got two months of greater than a 1,000 hits we’d register a domain for ourselves. We crossed the threshold last night. Those of you who have been coming to us from http://islamicate.typepad.com/islamicate/ can continue to do so. However, you can now also find us at https://islamicate.com/. To most of you it will mean nothing in terms of visiting the site. For us, it’s an important milestone. I’ll be doing a slight restructuring of the site…
