THE LOOMING TOWER AL-QAEDA AND THE ROAD TO 9/11 CH. 8 PARADISE Hasan al-Turabi Staged a military coup d?etat against the civilian, democratic gov?t of Sudan in 1989. He attributed the failures of the Arab world to the fact that its gov?ts were insufficiently Islamic and too dependent on the West. He envisioned the creation of an international Muslim community, the ummah, headquartered in Sudan, which would then spill into other countries, carrying out the Islamist revolution in and ever-widening circle. Sudan and bin Laden The government of Sudan was eager to have bin Laden live and work in their country. They sent him a letter of invitation, followed by having several members of the Sudanese intelligence service meet with him.

THE LOOMING TOWERAL-QAEDA AND THE ROAD TO 9/11 CH. 10 PARADISE LOST Training for terrorism Young men from all over came to Khartoum to train for al-Qaeda. Their motivations varied, but they had in common a belief that Islam (pure and primitive, unmitigated by modernity and uncompromised by politics) would cure the wounds that socialism or Arab nationalism had failed to heal. bin Laden?s main task was to direct them toward a common enemy. ?America the weak? bin Laden told the al-Qaeda recruits that though America appeared so mighty, it was actually weak and cowardly. For all its wealth and resources, America lacks conviction. Tall tales Al-Qaeda was not actually responsible for many of the feats that bin Laden gave them credit for.
