The Taliban website has uploaded a 35-minute-long video depicting a series of attacks against Afghan security forces in the Kamdesh district in Nuristan province.

Moezeddine Garsallaoui, a Swiss citizen originally from Tunisia who is now thought to be a senior al Qaeda operative in North Waziristan, said the elections are a Western trick designed to usurp the establishment of a global caliphate.

Abu Miqdad al Masri and Abd al Rahman al Yemeni both were involved in al Qaeda’s external operations. Al Masri was also a member of al Qaeda’s Shura Majlis.

The Taliban again called for the release of ‘Lady al Qaeda’ Aafia Siddiqui. The hostages may be managed by Moezeddine Garsallaoui, a Swiss citizen who is a senior al Qaeda leader in North Waziristan.

Haleem Ullah was a deputy to Mullah Nazir, the Taliban leader who also claims to be a member of al Qaeda. The US has ramped up strikes in Nazir’s territories this year.
