Can we talk?

 'Kinder & gentler al Qaeda"
"As the al Qaeda leader's brother, he says they are ideologically inseparable, and that if anyone can talk his brother out of violence it's him....A source with direct knowledge of Egyptian government talks with jihadists in the Sinai says Zawahiri is helping negotiations. The source says Zawahiri has the respect of the Islamists and the trust of the new government.... He says he told his interrogators he could work a truce with Islamists but he says his jailers didn't want to know. "If this idea had succeed, September 11 would not have even happened in the first place. I hope this opportunity today is not wasted."
Osama bin Laden had a similar proposal in 2004, it was quickly followed a year later by the deadly 7/7 subway attack in London killing 52 people.
Zawahiri offers no guarantees that he has some quick fix. "This is a very tough mission. You have to be logical. If you want to live in peace then you must make others feel that they will live in peace."
He says his brother will listen to him, .... "We want to turn this page and forget the past." ... It wouldn't be the first time the terms are unacceptably high."

Steve Pieczenik, Dep Undersecrtary of Def and longtime official from Carter-Clinton eras did a live interview on Alex Jones Sept 16. He talked about Israel's involvement in 911. this is a very successful and high powered guy. Jones has since censored him from return visits on his show and the video is disappearing fast from the web.
