Quote of the day.

The quote of the day comes from an AP piece, which talks about the differences in the new Al Quaeda recruits.

Jenkins said al-Qaida recruiters are very good at spotting the vulnerable — often young men undergoing personal crises — whether drugs, crime, joblessness, poverty or a spiritual hunger. They are offered an ideology that explains the difficulties and provides a new mind-set.

"This is the way cults recruit," Jenkins said. "To a certain extent ... this is the way armies recruit."
