In New Video, Al-Qaeda Leader Al-Zawahiri Urges Pakistanis To Rise Up Against Pakistan Army, Says: 'The American Jew Warren Weinstein... Will Not Return To His Family... Until Our Demands [For the Release of Aafia Siddiqui and Other Al-Qaeda, Taliban Prisoners] Are Met'

In a new video statement, Al-Qaeda leader Ayman Al-Zawahiri issued a clarion call to the people of Pakistan, urging them to rise up by the millions against the Pakistan Army generals and the corrupt government in Islamabad.
