Al-Qaeda No. 2 calls Obama a 'fraud' - new Zawahiri audio message
-- AP: "Al-Qaida's deputy leader on Monday seized upon President Barack Obama failure to bring about a freeze in Israeli settlement construction in the West Bank and called him a 'fraud' in a new audio message."
-- "Ayman al-Zawahri's 28-minute audio message was mainly to deliver a eulogy for slain Pakistani Taliban leader Baitullah Mehsud, but he also took the opportunity to slam NATO member states operating in Afghanistan, including Germany, which he criticized for keeping troops there."

(Pakistan) Al-Qaeda eulogizes Taliban's Baitullah Mehsud
-- AKI: "Al-Qaeda's second-in-command, Ayman al-Zawahiri, has released a new audio message on Islamist websites eulogising the late Pakistani Taliban leader, Baitullah Mehsud."
-- Zawahiri eulogizes Mehsud: "One of Islam's greatest heroes has died. He battled the enemies of Islam and Muslims. His name is Baitullah Mehsud, a martyr that during his life has done more than what people think. Baitullah had begun his Islamic studies, but was forced to stop once the crusaders campaign against Islam began, and instead chose the way of jihad. This sincere young man Baitullah managed to create a massive Jihadi movement that launched wars, ambushes and battles against the crusaders and their agents in Afghanistan and Pakistan."
