From Rueters today:
DUBAI (Reuters) - Al Qaeda's deputy leader Ayman al-Zawahri said in a videotape broadcast Monday al Qaeda would continue to attack the United States until Washington changed its policies toward the Muslim world.
We are a nation of patience and we will continue fighting you (United States) until the last hour," Zawahri said in the excerpts of the tape aired on Arab television Al Jazeera.
"Our final advice to America, although I know they will not heed it: You must choose between two methods in dealing with Muslims. Cooperate with them with respect and based on mutual interests or deal with them as free loot, robbed land and violated sanctity," he said.
............
"As for the American elections, the two candidates are competing for Israel's favor -- that is, competing for the crime against the Muslim nation in Palestine which has lasted for 87 years to continue."
"This proves that there is no solution with America except to force it to submit to what is right through force," he said.
Bold is mine, we can only hope that last hour is close at hand! Where have they been for the last 3 years? There were reports that AQ was pissed they couldn't disrupt the elections, no not in the US but in their own back yard in Afghanistan.
