The following attacks, although usually carried out by Islamist fundamentalists who may have been inspired by al-Qaeda, have not actually been attributed to al-Qaeda or one of its branches and their removal from the infobox should be considered:
If the infobox template survives TfD and no one objects to the removal of these 6 attacks within a few days, I will remove them from the infobox (if, of course they are not removed by then). Cheers,

Where did you read that about London? I removed the London attacks from the template on the basis of reporting of the UK government's assessment that al-Qaeda was not involved and the bombers were independent actors but was promptly reverted. The whole existence of this box is POV: Islamist bombings are simply not carried out by some vast monolithic terrorist army. As such there is no cmapaign, and there should be no campaign box. These attacks have features in common, but command responsibility of an organisation that carries them all out is certainly not one of them. 79.68.156.222 ( talk) 14:53, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
The USS Cole bombing was not terrorism, as it was an attack against a military target. It should either be removed from this list or the Al-Qaeda terror campaign link should be changed. -- ChrisRuvolo ( t) 01:35, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
I’m a civilian - if I kill a soldier of another nation that my nation is not at war with, then I have committed murder. That is a criminal act, not a military act. The military can still be subjected to criminal and/or terrorist activity.
The Cole was not at war, and not attacked by any recognised state military. One definition of a terrorist act is …activities that involve violent acts… to influence the policy of a government by intimidation or coercion…. The Cole bombing fits that definition.

This template has a link to the Khobar Towers bombing; however, this bombing was done by Hizballah Al-Hijaz and not al-Qaeda. Should this link (and the template from the Khobar article) be removed? Morphh (talk) 22:23, 19 May 2007 (UTC)
I guess Putin got himself a Wiki account did he? The Second Chechnyan War is not related to al-Qaeda in any fashion. It is related to the First Chechnyan War, and in turn, to a much longer struggle. Removing it from this template. Sherurcij ( Because you can't fight terror by spreading fear) 01:11, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
The London bombings were not perpetrated by Al-Qaeda. main article provides source to show this. Vexorg ( talk) 17:34, 3 February 2009 (UTC)
