The terrorist threat has evolved in the 11 years since 9/11. In the Philippines, groups once affiliated with al-Qaeda have turned to crime. Philippine authorities link the Abu Sayyaf and members of the MNLF to recent kidnappings in the southern Philippines. Among the people kidnapped are an Australian, 2 Europeans and, most recently, a Jordanian journalist who was summoned by al-Qaeda’s top leaders for an interview shortly before the 9/11 attacks.
