"As for the second half of the long-term plan, it consists of hurrying to the fields of Jihad like Afghanistan, Iraq
and Somalia for Jihadi preparation and training. Thus it is a must to hurry to the fields of Jihad for two reasons:
the first is to defeat the enemies of the Ummah (Muslim community) and repel the Zionist Crusade, and the
second is for Jihadi preparation and training to prepare for the next stage of the Jihad."
STORYLINE
Al-Qaida's No. 2, Ayman al-Zawahri, on Wednesday issued a new video tape calling on Muslims to unite in
jihad, or holy war, and support the Islamist movement in Iraq.
Al-Zawahri is seen in the one-hour and 35 minutes tape dressed in white and addressing a wide array of
topics from Iraq to Saudi Arabia, the Palestinian territories and Egypt.
Al-Qaida's deputy chief called on all Muslims to join the holy war against the West.
It was not possible to verify from the tape's transcript whether it was recorded before last week's attempted
bombings in Britain, and al-Zawahri did not allude to them.
The tape raised a wide array of political topics linked to the Middle East, with al-Zawahri each time calling for a
more radical stance against US and its regional allies.
He also encouraged Iraqis and Muslims in general to show greater support to the Islamic State of Iraq, an
al-Qaida insurgent front in the country, despite detractors saying it lacks "necessary qualifications."
Al-Qaida's deputy leader did not name these detractors, but implicitly acknowledged some problems.
"The first thing which our beloved brothers in Iraq must realise is the critical nature of unity," al-Zawahri said.
He also called on Kurds from northern Iraq to join forces with insurgents.
It was not clear what problems al-Zawahri was alluding to, but a number of major Sunni Arab tribes have
turned against the Islamic State in recent months and have cooperated with US forces in the Iraqi provinces of
Anbar and Diyala.
Some Sunnis have complained that the Islamic State tried to impose harsh rules on the population, alienating
many people who had backed the resistance.
Later, al-Zawahri further alluded to the insurgents' possible shortcomings in governing the zones they control
in Iraq and to interior tensions among militants.
"The mujahideen (insurgents) are not innocent of deficiency, error and slips, because they are humans who
are sometimes right and sometimes wrong, as humans are," al-Zawahri said.
"The mujahideen must solve their problems among themselves," he said, calling on the insurgents not to make
public their internal disputes.
The lengthy tape then included video exerts such as footage from Thomas Kean, the Chair of the September
11 Commission, stating that al-Qaida was one of the biggest security threats ever faced by the US.
In what appeared a similar attempt to convince Muslim viewers of al-Qaida's might, the tape then inserted
quotes from an Arab newspaper commentator stating he believed the terrorist group remained as strong as
before.
Al-Qaida leader Osama Bin Laden's deputy then lashed out at Egypt and Saudi Arabia for supporting the
United States in the Middle East.
The tape played television footage from US and other TV channels quoting various officials and journalists
discussing corruption in Saudi Arabia.
In a lengthy development apparently addressed at Iraqis, he warned against the rise of Saudi influence in Iraq.
"If the agents of the Saudi state were to take control of government in Iraq or the regions of the people of the
Sunnah, the Iraqis would then suffer the same repression and humiliation which the people suffer under Saudi
rule under the pretext of combating terrorism and preserving security ie combating Jihad and preserving
America's security," al-Zawahri said.
He also talked of his "long-term plan" and encouraged Muslims to hurry "to the fields of Jihad like Afghanistan,
Iraq and Somalia for Jihadi preparation and training" in order to "defeat the enemies of the Ummah (Muslim
community) and repel the Zionist Crusade."
The IntelCentre, a US-based intelligence group that monitors militant messages, said al-Zawahri's new video,
was released by as-Sahab, al-Qaida's media wing.
Entitled "The Advice of One Concerned," it was the eighth video featuring a statement from al-Zawahri this
year.

Dopesheet: Al Qaeda's deputy leader Ayman al-Zawahri said in a videotape broadcast on Monday al Qaeda
would continue to attack the United States until Washington changed its policies towards 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.
Egyptian-born Zawahri is Osama bin Laden's right hand man and has been pictured travelling with the al
Qaeda leader through Afghanistan. He is on the FBI's list of its 22 "most wanted terrorists".
The latest video, in which Zawahri was wearing a white turban and sitting with an automatic rifle next to him,
appeared to have been taped before the U.S. presidential polls because he said it did not matter to al Qaeda
whether Americans chose U.S. President George W. Bush or Democratic challenger John Kerry.
Zawahri mentioned in passing Iraq's polls which are due to be held in January.
"As for the American elections, the two candidates are competing for Israel's favour-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.
A U.S. intelligence official said the U.S. intelligence community would conduct a technical analysis of the tape.
Al Jazeera last month aired a videotape from bin Laden warning of possible new Sept. 11-style attacks. He
said in a full Internet broadcast of the video that Bush had dragged the United States into a quagmire in Iraq
and warned of retaliation for Iraqi deaths.
It appeared to be bin Laden's first direct threat against the United States over deaths in Iraq.
Fighters loyal to Washington's top foe in Iraq,
Jordanian militant Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, recently pledged allegiance to the al Qaeda leader. Zarqawi's group
has claimed the bloodiest attacks in Iraq and hostage beheadings.
Zawahri said Arab and Muslim states would share Baghdad's fate if they gave up jihad (holy war) and
reiterated al Qaeda's aim to "purify our countries from aggressors and stand up to whoever attacks us, violates
our sanctities or robs our riches".
"Those lands that are not occupied by crusader forces today will be their targets tomorrow," he said. Last
month al Jazeera aired an audio tape attributed to Zawahri in which he called for organised resistance against
"crusader America" and its allies and urged Muslims not to wait for Egypt, the Arabian Peninsula, Yemen and
Algeria to be taken.
In a Sept. 9 video-taped message he ridiculed U.S. forces which he said were "hiding in their trenches" in
Afghanistan. Zawahri and bin Laden, believed to be hiding in the border region between Pakistan and Afghanistan, have eluded capture since the Sept. 11 attacks, which were carried out by al Qaeda.

STORYLINE:
Pakistani President General Pervez Musharraf on Tuesday urged an end to outside interference in Iraq and
suggested that the country could be stabilised by a Muslim peacekeeping force.
The Pakistani leader made the comments in an address to a meeting of the Organisation of the Islamic
Conference (OIC) in Islamabad, in which he warned delegates that the Islamic world was on a "downward
slide."
"While the world views Islam as a militant, intolerant religion, this thought is reinforced by our own
obscurantist, extremist forces," Musharraf said. "Therefore, ladies and gentlemen, the Islamic world on the
whole is on a downward slide and we must face this."
He then went on to call for action by the Muslim world to help bring an end to the violence in Iraq and
suggested that a Muslim peacekeeping force could be deployed in order to help stabilise the country.
"If all the warring factions ... accept, then maybe a Muslim peacekeeping force under the United Nations could
be looked at," he said.
Musharraf, an important ally of the United States in its war against al-Qaida, didn't identify any of the countries
he said were meddling in Iraq.
He also didn't say whether Pakistan would offer troops for a possible peacekeeping force.
The US put out diplomatic feelers about creating an Arab-Muslim peacekeeping force for Iraq as long ago as
2004, but the idea foundered on the reluctance of Egypt and other Arab nations to get involved in Iraq's chaos.
Musharraf was opening a three-day annual meeting of foreign ministers from the OIC, the main organisation of
Muslim states.
He said the organisation needed reform and better funding so it could foster social and economic development
in the Muslim world and counter religious extremism.

"Selective fencing involves about 35 kilometres only, various patches of 5, 6 kilometres at 7 or 8 points. We
are doing it. We have taken a decision. On the other side, on Baluchistan side, it is about 250 kilometres of
selective fencing and mining required. We will do that in phase two. We will wait for any suggestions from
anyone to avoid fencing and mining. But if no suggestion comes, leave us to ourselves. This is Pakistan and
we will do it our way."
STORYLINE
Pakistani President General Pervez Musharraf said on Friday that Pakistan's relations with archrival India
have never been better.
Musharraf said confidence-building measures under the peace process that began three years ago were going
well and that he was "fairly optimistic" the two governments would be able to move forward to resolve all their
disputed issues, including Kashmir.
"Our relations have never been this good before in our history and we ought to be happy about that," he said
at a news conference in Rawalpindi on Friday.
"We are very glad the people of Pakistan and India want peace. This is another good sign," Musharraf said.
Pakistan and India have fought three wars since the partition of the subcontinent on independence from Britain
in 1947.
Two of the wars have been over Kashmir, the disputed Himalayan region divided between the nuclear
neighbours.
Since the peace talks began in early 2004, tensions have eased palpably between the two nations and
transport and cultural ties have expanded, but little progress has been made on Kashmir and other key issues.
Musharraf also said Pakistan would erect 35 kilometres (22 miles) of fencing to reinforce its porous mountain
border with Afghanistan, acknowledging for the first time that Pakistani frontier guards may be allowing
suspected Taliban and al-Qaida fighters to cross.
However, Musharraf denied that the Pakistani army or intelligence service was actively supporting militants.
Musharraf had proposed fencing and mining the border under Western pressure to do more to prevent Taliban
and al-Qaida militants from using Pakistan's wild borderlands as a base for operations against Afghan and
foreign troops on the other side.
"We are doing it. We have taken a decision," Musharraf said.
The first phase would see fencing erected at seven or eight locations along Pakistan's northwest frontier and
take "a few months to execute," Musharraf said.
He said mines would not be used in the initial phase because of concerns raised by the international
Community.
However, he said plans for a second phase still foresaw using both fencing and mines to secure 250
kilometres (150 miles) of the frontier further south, in Pakistan's Baluchistan province.
"We will wait for any suggestions from anyone to avoid fencing and mining. But if no suggestion comes, leave
us to ourselves," Musharraf said.

STORYLINE
Students at a radical mosque besieged by government forces in the Pakistani capital Islamabad began
surrendering to security forces on Friday, despite an earlier statement by the head of the mosque rejecting
calls for an unconditional surrender.
As the siege of the Lal Masjid, or Red Mosque, entered its third day, troops rocked the complex with gunfire
and explosions but appeared to be holding back from a potentially bloody final assault.
But Abdul Rashid Ghazi, the top-ranking cleric holed up inside the mosque complex, told a local television
station that he and his followers would not surrender and were ready for martyrdom.
The government is keen to avoid a bloodbath that would further damage President General Pervez
Musharraf's embattled administration, and said troops would not storm the mosque while women and children
were inside.
Pictures filmed by an AP Television crew showed several students - mostly women - surrendering to security
forces surrounding the mosque as the stand-off continued.
Soldiers backed by armoured vehicles and helicopters surrounded the Lal Masjid before dawn on Wednesday,
a day after the start of clashes between security forces and radical followers of the mosque that have killed 19
people.
Wednesday's violence brought to a head a six-month standoff between Pakistan's US-backed government and
its top cleric Maulana Abdul Aziz, who has challenged Musharraf with a drive to impose Taliban-style Islamic
law in the city.
Since January, the clerics have defied the government by sending their students to occupy a library, intimidate
storekeepers selling Western music and films, and kidnap alleged prostitutes and police as part of a
Taliban-style anti-vice campaign.
A swift resolution would be a welcome victory for Musharraf, who is under growing pressure at home and
abroad over spreading extremism and his botched attempt to fire Pakistan's chief justice.

STORYLINE:
A radical cleric captured by security forces while fleeing in a woman's burqa and high heels said on Thursday
that the nearly 1,000 followers still inside his government-besieged mosque in Pakistani capital Islamabad
should escape or surrender.
The comments by Maulana Abdul Aziz raised hopes that the standoff could end without a bloodbath, but his
brother remained inside the mosque with followers and said there was no reason to surrender.
Gunfire and explosions rolled repeatedly around the Red Mosque, or Lal Masjid, on Thursday.
Officials said up to 100 fighters armed with guns and grenades were holed up inside.
Hundreds of heavily armed troops, backed by armoured vehicles, ringed the complex as four helicopters
circled over the area, from which journalists were barred.
So far, at least 16 people, including eight militants, have been killed and scores injured in the standoff between
Pakistan's US-backed government and Aziz, who has challenged President General Pervez Musharraf with a
drive to impose Taliban-style Islamic law in the city.
A swift resolution would be a welcome victory for Musharraf, who is under growing pressure at home and
abroad over spreading extremism and his botched attempt to fire Pakistan's chief justice.
The violence erupted on Tuesday when militant students streamed out of the mosque to confront security
forces sent there after the kidnapping of six alleged Chinese prostitutes.
The brief abduction drew a protest from Beijing, and proved to be the last straw following a string of
provocations by the mosque stretching back six months.
The city's top administrator, Khalid Pervez, indicated that the shooting, a series of pre-dawn explosions and
the helicopters were ploys to escalate tension, rattle nerves and persuade the militants to give up.
Aziz's brother, Abdul Rashid Ghazi, who remains inside the mosque, told The Associated Press that no one
was being held against his or her will.
However, Deputy Information Minister Tariq Azim said some of the more than 1,100 supporters who had fled
the mosque and an adjoining girls' madrassa told them that Ghazi had retreated to a cellar along with 20
female "hostages" and that the holdouts had "large quantities of automatic weapons."
Azim said there would be no more negotiations with Ghazi.
"Enough time has already been wasted. It has to be total, unconditional surrender," he said.
Still, he said security forces were holding back from storming the complex to avoid civilian casualties.
Aziz was arrested on Wednesday evening after a female police officer checking women fleeing the mosque
tried to search his body, which was concealed by a full-length black burqa.
Azim said the cleric had also been wearing high-heeled shoes.
In an interview on state-run television, Aziz said that as many as 700 women and about 250 men remained
inside the mosque compound and an adjacent women's seminary, some armed with more than a dozen AK-47
assault rifles provided by "friends."
"If they can get out quietly they should go, or they can surrender if they want to," he said.
Seven men jumped over the mosque wall and tried to escape through a storm drain on Wednesday, but were
caught by security forces, said Colonel Mohammed Ali, a military spokesman.
Since January, the clerics have defied the government by sending their students to occupy a library, intimidate
storekeepers selling Western music and films and kidnap alleged prostitutes and police as part of a
Taliban-style anti-vice campaign.
Aziz and Ghazi will be put on trial on more than 25 police charges including kidnapping, incitement to murder
and arms offences, officials said, while women, children and males not involved in crimes are being granted
amnesty.
Students emerging from the mosque on Thursday said the morale of those who remained was good, and
many stressed that they left only at the insistence of worried parents.

Several explosions rang out on Thursday near a radical mosque besieged by security forces in the Pakistani
capital, hours after its top cleric was captured trying to sneak out of the complex under a woman's burqa.
It was not immediately clear what caused the series of heavy blasts which lit the sky near Islamabad's Lal
Masjid, or Red Mosque, beforedawn on Thursday.
A city police official, said security forces responded to shots fired from the mosque compound, but he had few
details.
Police were using loudspeakers to urge the militants to surrender, he said.

STORYLINE:
As gunfire and explosions rocked a besieged radical mosque in Pakistan's capital on Thursday, relatives of
students inside are gorwing increasingly concerned for their loved ones' safety. While hardcore miltants holed
up in the complex snubbed a plea from their captured leader to surrender, reports began to indicate on
Thursday that other had been detained inside against their will. Interior Minister Aftab Khan Sherpao said
women and children had been taken to the basement of the mosque complex to be used as human shields against an increasingly imminent raid. In the past two days over a thousand people have left the mosque
complex voluntarily. The military has searched all those leaving for weapons. Women and children were given
a general amnesty, whereas some of the men were arrested for firearms and other offences.
Relief workers, who entered the mosque premises to take away dead bodies, said the relatives of those inside
the mosque were being denied access to their loved ones.
Families, who sent their children to the well-reputed religious schools affiliated to the mosque, traveled to
Islamabad from across the country to get word of their children.
Mumshi Khan believes his 12 year-old son is inside the besieged complex, but has not heard from him. He is
frustrated that nobody seems to care about his family's plight.
The people holding out at the mosque are being led by radical cleric Abdul Rashid Ghazi. This week's violence
brought to a head a six-month standoff between Pakistan's U.S.-backed government and the mosque
administration - headed by Ghazi and his brother Abdul Aziz - who have challenged President Gen. Pervez
Musharraf with a drive to impose Taliban-style Islamic law in the city. The interior minister told a news
conference Thursday that the government believes Ghazi is using women and children as human shields. The
government, keen to avoid a bloodbath that would damage Musharraf's already embattled administration, said
it would not storm the mosque so long as women and children remained inside. But with tensions so high -
and sporadic gunfire and explosions continuing throughout the day - many families waiting for news were left
frustrated and upset.

STORYLINE:
Security forces clashed with militants outside a radical mosque in the Pakistani capital, Islamabad, on
Tuesday triggering gunfire that left one soldier dead and several students and troops injured.
The battle marked a major escalation in a standoff at the Lal Masjid, or Red Mosque, whose clerics have
challenged the military-led government by mounting a vigilante anti-vice campaign in Islamabad.
Trouble began when student followers of the mosque, including young men with guns and dozens of women
wearing black burqas, rushed toward a nearby police checkpoint early on Tuesday afternoon.
Police and paramilitary Rangers fired tear gas and, as the students retreated, an Associated Press
photographer saw at least four male students, some of them masked, fire shots toward security forces about
200 metres (yards) away.
Gunfire was also heard from the police position.
A man used the mosque's loudspeakers to order suicide bombers to get into position.
"They have attacked our mosque, the time for sacrifice has come," the man said.
An hour later, dozens of students were patrolling the area around the mosque, and sporadic shots were still
heard.
There was no sign of security forces, who have massed in the area in recent weeks, moving in on the mosque.
Some of the students carried gas masks and several were seen with gasoline-filled bottles and Molotov
cocktails.
About a dozen were armed with guns, including AK-47 assault rifles.
Dozens of stone-throwing students shattered windows of a government building near the mosque, chanting,
"Taliban, long live Taliban," a reference to Afghanistan's radical Islamic insurgents.
Abdul Rashid Ghazi, the mosque's deputy leader, said the Rangers sparked the trouble by erecting barricades
near the mosque.
When asked about the presence of armed students at his mosque, Ghazi said they "are our guards."
One paramilitary soldier hit in the clash died later at a hospital, Interior Minister Aftab Khan Sherpao said.
A doctor at the nearby Polyclinic Hospital said that about 60 people had been brought there for treatment
following Tuesday's clash.
Most were suffering from the effects of tear gas, but they also included several students, both male and
female, with bullet wounds, he said.
The doctor, who asked for anonymity because officials had told hospital staff not to speak to reporters, said
two members of the security forces were also being treated at the hospital for gunshot wounds.
Authorities have been at loggerheads with the mosque for months over a land dispute and after its followers
began a campaign to impose their version of Islamic law in the capital.
Students have carried out a string of kidnappings of police officers and alleged prostitutes, including several
Chinese nationals, and have threatened suicide attacks if security forces intervene.
Hundreds of police and paramilitary Rangers have taken up position near the mosque in recent days in what
officials have said is an effort to contain their activities.
Pakistan's President General Pervez Musharraf said last week that he was ready to raid the mosque, but
warned that suicide bombers from a militant group linked to al-Qaida had slipped into the mosque.

STORYLINE
A spate of kidnappings of policemen by Islamic students has increased pressure on President General Pervez
Musharraf's government to stop a pro-Taliban mosque in Pakistan's capital from lurching further out of state
control.
Stick-wielding students associated with Islamabad's Lal Masjid, or Red Mosque, who are also behind a
freelance anti-vice campaign, have abducted at least seven police since Friday, twice drawing armed forces
onto the city's streets.
"They should compromise and Musharraf should also compromise on these issues because if the public and
the government, they start against with each other, the country don't move to the progress," Badar, a resident in the capital told AP Television on Wednesday.
In the most recent standoff, students snatched three police in a scuffle on Monday evening to protest the
detention of 40 fellow students.
Dozens of troops were deployed to a residential neighbourhood, where bearded young men had barricaded a
lane leading to their seminary.
They later released the three police, but two of four officers taken by students on Friday remain in their
custody.
Opposition parties accuse intelligence agencies of manipulating the events to divert media attention from a
crisis triggered by Musharraf's controversial suspension of the country's top judge, or as a ruse to justify
declaring a state of emergency, a conspiracy theory with considerable traction in Pakistan's murky politics.
But even Pakistan's hard-line religious parties have distanced themselves from the mosque's leaders.
But the theory raises doubts over what Musharraf, a key US Anti-terror ally, would gain from exposing the
failure of his own policy to contain Islamic extremism.
The general's standing appears shaky as he looks to extend his near-eight-year rule this fall.
Using the muscle of thousands of seminary students, two influential brothers running the mosque have
orchestrated the kidnap of a brothel owner, demanded the closure of music and video shops, set up an Islamic
court and threatened suicide attacks if the government raids the mosque.
The Interior Ministry said on Tuesday that the government still wants to negotiate with Lal Masjid rather than
risk bloodshed through use of force.
But with state machinery often used to suppress moderate opposition activists, the authorities' staunch refusal
to get tough with the Islamic hard-liners appears puzzling.
Abdul Rashid Ghazi, one of the brothers heading Lal Masjid, showed no sign of backing down.
He said the two police still held would only be freed when the government releases five people linked to the
mosque and 40 of its students arrested on Sunday and Monday.
