#1 Binny may have been a joke, but ignoring or dissing a threat makes them only more determined to "have the last laugh". I suspect he learned from 9-11, too, and is patiently awaiting WMD's before proceeding with his grand finale.

#2 ...who say al-Qaida was not taken seriously at the time, because they were not the real heroes in Afghanistan...In Afghanistan, bin Laden really was a joke.

That was before 9/11, now almost a decade in the past. Are al-Qaida and bin Laden still a joke to the jihadis now? That is the question the reporter and those he quotes do not even approach addressing.
