World News - Al-Qaeda Calls: kidnap Westerners in exchange for prisoners

The leader of al-Qaeda called on its members to kidnap Westerners in exchange for the jihadists who are in prison. Includes a blind cleric serving a life sentence in the United States because the city of New York blasting plan years ago in 1993.

As quoted from page www.huffingtonpost.com, Sunday, October 28, 2012, stated that in a two-hour videotape bedurasi posted this week on militant forums, Ayman al-Zawahri Egyptian-born al Qaeda leader urges support for Syrian uprising and calling on law enforcement Islamic law in Egypt.

He said, "Kidnapping citizens of the countries waging war against Muslims is the only way to liberate our prisoners, and Sheik Omar Abdel-Rahman," said the Egyptian cleric.

"This is the only language they understand," said al-Zawahri, who appears wearing a white turban and robe. "We will continue to seize again, until we can free our prisoners," he added.

There are few clues about the existence of the video that appeared on militant forums. The video was recorded with a brown curtain backdrop. He is regularly released video and audio statements.

Two weeks ago, the audio recordings contain statements urging holy war through anti-Islam movie amateurs produced in the United States. He also released a video on the anniversary of the attacks of 11 September 2001 and claimed that the militants were "defeated America in Iraq".

Liberation Abdel-Rahman has been a rallying cause militant Islam and the jihadist. A group called the name has claimed responsibility for the attack that took place in June before at the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, which caused no casualties.

The attack did not cause casualties, but a larger attack on September 11 claimed the lives of four Americans, including U.S. Ambassador in Libya, Chris Stevens.

Relatives and supporters of Abdel-Rahman had a dialogue with the U.S. Embassy in Cairo for months. The new president of Egypt, Mohammed Morsi, under pressure from a leading Egyptian jihadist who was recently released from prison and forced to swear to order his release.

Al-Zawahri seems to follow the debate over Egypt's political future of the country, when he was called on Egypt's ultraconservative clerics to ensure clearly Islamic sharia law in the new constitution. Members of Egyptian Salafi trend has forced the Muslim Brotherhood, the Islamist group which is the origin Morsi, making the role of Sharia tereksplisit. Liberal groups fear that Islamist groups will include language that can be used to curb freedom of expression and the rights of women and minorities.

"Sharia must be a source of law. It should be stated," Zawahri said. "This is the first step to clean up the constitution and laws to implement Islamic Sharia law," he said. Egypt's old constitution and most of the new designs will include some reference to "Sharia" or "principle" of sharia, but the exact expression can have large effects on the judgment in the future constitutionality of laws.

Leader of Al-Qaida also called on Muslims, especially in countries bordering Syria, to support the insurgency there. "I urged Muslims everywhere to rise up and support the brothers in Syria and to get rid of the criminal regime," he said. "The Syrian people have the right to defend themselves by any means."

Syria uprising transformation into open warfare has provided opportunities for foreign fighters and extremists to play a bigger role in the uprising, analysts said. President Bashar Assad's regime has long blamed "terrorists" for the crisis in the foreign country.

Al-Zawahri accused the international community is indirectly approved the killings in Syria. "The international community gives Assad a license to kill and the opportunity to rein in the Syrian revolution," he said.

"They are afraid of the government who sought victory for Islam and Muslims." Most of Syria's Sunni insurgents have received support from fellow Sunni Gulf, while the Assad regime, dominated by a Shiite offshoot sect allied with the Shiite-led Iran. viva
