I've Been Thinking:

Ayman Zawahiri, the leader of Al Qaeda, just released part one of eleven videos directed at the people of Egypt. In the videos Zawahiri gives Egyptians advice on how to complete their revolution. Zawahiri is actually an Egyptian.

He advises Egyptians to kidnap Americans: "I ask that all Muslims take prisoner citizens of countries that have attacked Muslims, because our prisoners will not be freed except by force, which is the only language they understand."

"I tell all of you who wish to purge Egypt of social injustice and corruption that the battle is not over." He said that only through victory can the Muslim and Egyptian people "achieve what they want - a government with Sharia law, proud, free and with social justice."

These videos will have an impact. Zawahiri is sending a powerful message to Egyptians and he will spur them on to plan more attacks against the United States. Zawahiri is a favorite son of Egypt's Islamist movement.
