How
is it properly spelled, anyways? [img]graemlins/uhoh1.gif[/img]
When I enter some of the terms into google, I get this...
Al Qaida - 252,000 results
Al Qaeda - 535,000 results
Al Queda - 23,100 results
Al Queida - 721 results
Al Quaida - 20,200 results
Al Queida - 90 results
At CNN they use Al Qaeda, at the BBC Al-Qaeda. Here in the Netherlands they mostly use Al Qaida. The plot is thickening...
edit: and yes, of course I know you're right about that, MagiK. It varies from language to language and from people to people how it's translated.
