From Ellie Bittourna: Al-Qaida sent out a 90-minute video containing a threat for the continuation of attacks in Iraq even after U.S. troops have left and that they will institute new major attacks. The video was set out for the public to see on Friday, September 19, a week after the seventh anniversary of the 9-11 attacks. This raised a few inquiries about Al-Qaida's real dedication to their claims for future attacks since this video has been issued on the day of the anniversary in previous years.
Last year Osama Bin Ladin spoke in a clip of the video stating how proud they were of their successful attacks. In the video issued Friday, top leaders of Al-Qaida were stated saying the, mujahedeen, which means "holy warriors" are increasing in size every day. They also dismissed all claims that the U.S. and Iraqi military were gaining success on terrorist groups. Whatever Al-Qaida has planned in the future, it has been taken into question lately their actual fulfillment of promises because of this video. A researcher for terrorist groups said that the video was "all bark and no bite," and that they might be having problems producing new attacks.
