English term or phrase: crowded field
Estou a traduzir um artigo para ser publicado numa revista portuguesa sobre a morte de Osama bin Laden e o que ela poderá significar para o futuro da al-Qaeda, do Paquistão e do Afeganistão...

"Ever since evading his pursuers in the Tora Bora mountains of Afghanistan in November 2001, Mr bin Laden’s slipperiness in the face of America’s efforts to find him had inspired jihadists everywhere. In the crowded field of Islamist terrorism it also preserved al-Qaeda, his loose-limbed organisation, as the leading brand."

Sim, tem razão. Pode ainda colocar "multifacetado" terrorismo, ou diversificado.

Asker: Inclino-me mais para "miscelânea", isto é, o terrorismo islamita não ser representado apenas por uma organização mas por muitas... Seja como for, agradeço!

Asker: Boa para multifacetado!!! Obrigada!
