What are the chances of an Al-Qaeda strike in other countries?

Jason Burke (Author) gives expert video advice on: Are we in imminent danger?; Why do Al Qaeda target civilians?; What is our foreign policy doing to our domestic security? and more...

The three countries that are most at risk, due to the prominence they have, and due to their own specific vulnerabilities, are the US, Israel, and Britain. The US because it is the Great Satan, Israel for the obvious historic reasons, Britain because we are in the front line in a way that other countries aren't because of our foreign policy and our close support to the United States. Because people who can't get to the US can get to the UK more easily, and because we have historic cultural links with Pakistan, which is where, for the moment, the Al-Qaeda hardcore are most operative, or have most of their bases. Those three factors make the UK far more of a target than it was, for example, five years ago, or certainly ten years ago.
