What Does Al Qaeda Want?

Larry Mantle asks Islamic scholar and author Reza Aslan the question "What does Al Qaeda want?" On Wednesday Larry talked with author Raymond Ibrahim about his new book The Al Qaeda Reader (Doubleday). Ibrahim translated many writings and speeches of Osama Bin Laden and Ayman Al Zawahiri, and concluded that Al Qaeda has a clear anti-Western theology deeply rooted in history and the Koran. Aslan disagrees. He interprets Al Qaeda's statements as a hodge-podge of Anti-American complaints, offering no comprehensive policy, goals or insight into Islamic thought or theology. Reza Aslan is a religious scholar, Marketplace and CBS News Middle East analyst, and author of No God But God: The Origins, Evolution and Future of Islam (Random House).
