Ignorant? Did you read what I typed. I said Al Q had(s) massive $$$$ support, a homebase where they're untouchable (Aghanistan, parts of Pakistan, Yemen, even parts of Saudi Arabia, cells all over the world),
and most importantly a willingness to commit suicide. The AWB are a group of farmers with khaki uniforms with their own anti-integration ideas. Whites in SA represent 9% of the population, unlike Muslims in the ME who represent close to a billion people. Very few whites support the AWB further.
Yes a pipe bomb could do damage, but the bigger danger is in Al Quada blowing something up in the WC than a few farmers from FS/Gauteng.
There were pipe bomb incidents in the US WC. Nothing happened.
The Whites have a lot more to lose if a war breaks out, although I don't believe it will.
