Osama bin Laden wanted to rebrand al-Qaeda

20:58  Muhammad Shahbaz Khan  No comments

Osama bin Laden was thinking of renaming al-Qaeda, a letter discovered by US troops reveals.
It was found in the house in Pakistan where he was killed and shows he thought his terror network’s name should have a more religious meaning.
He wanted to convince Muslims worldwide they were in a holy war with America and was worried the full name al-Qaeda al-Jihad, meaning The Base of Holy War, had become shortened.
Losing the word jihad let the West “claim deceptively they are not at war with Islam,” he wrote. He suggested Taifat al-Tawhed Wal-Jihad (Monotheism and Jihad Group) or Jama’at l’Adat al-Khilafat al-Rashida (Restoration of the Caliphate Group).
3Pakistan has agreed to release the youngest of Bin Laden’s three widows, Amal Abdulfattah, and allow her to return to her native Yemen.

Al-Qaida deputy: U.S. will regret killing Bin Laden

07:42  Muhammad Shahbaz Khan  No comments

In a 30-minute video released Wednesday, Egyptian-born Ayman al-Zawahiri says Arab revolts are united in their struggle against the U.S.
The United States will regret its killing of Osama bin Laden, al-Qaeda deputy Ayman al-Zawahiri said in a video that surfaced on the internet Wednesday.
In his first statement since bin Laden was killed on May 2, al-Zawahiri said, "Now you rejoice over the martyrdom of Sheikh Osama bin Laden, the holy warrior, but also you will regret it."
In the nearly 30-minute video, he said Washington was happy about the death of Saddam Hussein, but that Iraq then fell into the hands of mujahideen, or holy warriors.
Al-Zawahiri said that Muslims in Egypt, Libya, Tunisia and Syria share the same struggles against the United States. He urged Pakistan's youth to follow those in Arab nations in seeking to overthrow their government.
However, he called on al-Qaeda's followers to abstain from acts that would "cause risk to masses in mosques, markets or public spaces".
It is widely believed that al-Qaeda's deadly attacks in Iraq and Pakistan over the last several years led to fierce criticism of its tactics even in extremist circles.
