Desperation led Zawahiri to lash out at Obama on a recent audiotape. Al Qaeda has plenty to be nervous about.

    After bombing the HSBC and English Ambassador by Al Qaeda in ??stanbul, A turkish general from General Staff of Turkey, who was so effective, accused somebody of being English spy in tv reportage. I wonder what the connections of Al Qaeda are in Turkey or in another country. Why the general expressed a point of view in direction of Al Qeada? Are there any problem between Turkey and Great Britain?

    is it not enough that nature is punishing the TYRANTS most where it hurts most
    in a hurting economy with a recession for the war atrocities they are still comitting

    beware the silent wrath of god for crimes against millions in iraq and afganistan in the name of fighting your own demons and lust for greed immersed in the lies about some so called terrorists

    just like the USSR and remember what happened to the soviets

    Pakistan is a great nation and there are many things to write home about. There are problems, is there a country that has no problems. Even the greatest nations went through a turbulent period where every day there were questions about their very existence. Can you forget that United States of America nearly split into confederates and the unionists? Only with the great leadership of Abraham Lincoln and some luck did America stayed together after the confederate army was defeated at the Gettysburg. And look where USA is today. We must tell our people that there is hope at the end of tunnel. Look what we have achieved in the last 60 years, a country with no infrastructure to speak of and which did not even have a needle to bind papers at the time of independence is now feeding 170 million people.
    Yes there is corruption and bad governance but does that mean that we tell our people everyday that your country is going to finish tomorrow. Lets give them something concrete steps to think about and work on, lets give them some ideas to survive and prosper and this is my belief that if we keep doing our work as opinion makers than eventually the word will get through and we shall see our great country of Pakistan at the top of ever positive endeavour in the world. Let???s take our country back.

    The US is also butchering other people by bombing their homes and communities. This was not mentioned in this article. Kepel is trying to wipe off the brutalities of the US by writing about the Al Qaeda. The US is also desparate to move out from Iraq, concentrate on Afghanistan and trying to prevent the rise of Russia and China. What about the US economy? Isn't the US desparate too?
