Who Needs al-Qaeda?

When we have a surfeit of home-grown terrorists.
How can a ragtag group of Arabs hope to compete with all the neo-Nazi, Christian Identity, and white supremacist terrorists spread throughout the country? Why, there are more hate groups in the United States than al-Qaeda has members. Add in the occasional wacko who decides to shoot up his school because he got bad grades or couldn't get a date. Al-Qaeda might be trying a terrorist attack every week and we wouldn't even notice what with all the hate crimes Americans are committing on ourselves.
