I think the country the Islamists can definently grab is Libya, there is no strong central army there to prevent a take over like Egypt has. Tunisia already has radical Islamists returning to the country.

(CNN) -- When historians in future years grapple with the significance of the overthrow of the Mubarak regime in Egypt 10 days ago, coming as it did in the wake of the "Jasmine" January 14 Revolution in Tunisia, they may judge it not only as a seismic event, shattering and renewing the Arab political order, but also the key watershed moment in confronting the global al Qaeda threat.
The political, economic, and cultural stagnation that al Qaeda fed off for more than two decades has been replaced by the fastest moving change the region has ever witnessed, the most promising of Arab Springs.
The burgeoning democracy movement across the Middle East appears to have caught al Qaeda off guard and threatens to reduce the terrorist group to irrelevance.

Yemen would be more at risk from what I'm hearing.
Al Qaeda requires the support of the people, why would they allow another repressive regime to immediately take over?

So the military takes over and you think that somehow freedom reigns throughout the middle east?
If anything, Al Qaeda will become much more powerful in all this turmoil and unrest.
I mean, they are terrorists after all. It's not like they promote turmoil and unrest just for the heck of it.

Which "people"?
ALL that don't tow their line of Sharia LAW...were you born under a rock?
That's not what is happening.
Not saying it may not happen. But the protestors aren't looking for theocracy.

I think it is way too early to be predicting anything here.
While it would be a nice idea for this to occur, I think it's a bit more hope than anything else.
Egypt and Libya were secular dictatorships, so was Iraq (im not sure of Tunisia)
Iraq put a theacracy in place that looks like Irans theocracy.
At this point we have no reason to think that these dictators won't be replaced with what al Q wants. another country run strictly by shiara law.
Is that true?
Is Iraq set up as a Theocracy?
I am happy to be corrected but I thought they were set up as a democratic republic?
They stand to profit handsomely by the termoil. I mean after all? Obama is now bargaining with the Taliban...
White House shifts Afghanistan strategy towards talks with Taliban
Whoopsy!

Iraq will very likely fall apart within this decade.
It sounds like Nostradamus, but that's where Iraq will end.
They stand to profit handsomely by the termoil. I mean after all? Obama is now bargaining with the Taliban...
White House shifts Afghanistan strategy towards talks with Taliban
Whoopsy!
Whole NATO wants to get out of Afghanistan.
There is nothing you can win in Afghanistan.
The Taliban are no 100-men gang, they will have a role to play in Afghanistan's political system if Afghanistan shall ever come to peace.
The Karzai system doesn't include the whole Afghani society, it is doomed to fail.

Anybody who buys this line of shit should be blogging over at People.com.
who is the #2 man in Al Qaeda, and what is his backgroundBut nevermind the ROOT organization of the Muslim Brotherhood...right Chrissy?
Um..what does that have to do with anything.
Al Qaeda basically morphed from the Muj in Afghanistan. That's where the proof of concept took place.
