Here are two interesting links from Southeast Asia, both of which treat 9/11 as a major issue. It shows the degree to which 9/11 succeeded in kindling a world war, the full flame of which we have yet to see.
The first, from Malaysia's New Straits Times, includes statements from Southeast Asia's foremost opponent of al Qaeda, Rohan Gunaratna. It concerns an interesting figure in terrorism, who pulled off an elaborate triple-cross of the United States, Egypt, and Islamic radicals.
Thailand's The Nation, which is owned by one of the opposition figures mentioned a few posts below, has a 9/11 post here. It is a pretty good summary of how the war is going in Southeast Asia, if you will let pass the swipes at Bush and the ruling Prime Minister, Thaksin Shinawatra. Those are par for the course.
