    Qaeda has not yet been destroyed. It and other like-


    minded groups remain willing and able to strike us. Al
    Qaeda leaders still at large are working to reconstitute the
    organization and to resume its terrorist operations. We must
    eradicate these organizations by denying them their sources
    of financing and eliminating their ability to hijack charitable
    organizations for their terrorist purposes. We must be
    prepared for a long war, and we must not falter.

    We must also look beyond the immediate danger of terrorist


    attacks to the conditions that allow terrorism to take root
    around the world. These conditions are no less threatening to
    U.S. national security than terrorism itself. The problems that
    terrorists exploit—poverty, alienation, and ethnic tensions—
    will grow more acute over the next decade. This will
    especially be the case in those parts of the world that have
    served as the most fertile recruiting grounds for Islamic
    extremist groups.

    We have already seen—in Afghan-istan and elsewhere—that


    domestic unrest and conflict in weak states is one of the
    factors that create an environment conducive to terrorism. 99
