Al-Qa'eda Moth is a western which finds itself divided into a three-pronged attack upon the senses. The first section deals with a nineteenth century narrative that typifies the films of John Wayne. The second strand involves a twentieth century version of the same story line. The third progression on our chess board, however, intellectualises this process and provides a template for dreaming. Using William Gayley Simpson's Which Way Western Man? as a briefing or sounding board --- Harlequin Thoomey, Toblerone Harpie, Old Man Smithers, Blackbird Leys Dingo et al speculate on western culture and its future. Can such a debate contribute to what Maurice Bardeche called the defence of the Occident? Our interweaving stories then combine in order to hint at a new Titan's creation.
