Does it really matter what they call themselves?  I don't care what their name is, I care who they're killing.   They can call themselves the islamic red-nosed clown lovers for all I care.

Actually, that's only one theory.  There's an interview in which a senior member (possibly Bin Laden, i don't remember) says that in the early days they trained at one location, and that was known as "the base", and that's  what they ended up calling themselves.

I was just wondering how many of you guys on here actually know what their name means.  Just curious.  If no one knows, I'll let you know however, I'm willing to bet someone is going to Google it or wiki it.  So answer honestly, without searching (I didn't) I've known this since the 90's, what does their name mean?
Yes I think it means.......... " I love liberals", or "allied with liberals"......something like that.

Because Conservatives don't like to be reminded that Liberals get more sex whilst they have to resort to peadophilia?  Is that it?

Barney Frank anyone?  I wouldn't use politicians in general as examples of appropriate sexual conduct.  Too much temptation to use your power to get "favors".
