Al Qaeda Reportedly Promotes Terrorist To Target West

Osama bin Laden reportedly has a new terrorist assigned to targeting the West. Saif Al-Adel, a native of Egypt, is Al Qaeda’s new chief of international operations, Britain’s The Telegraph reported, citing unnamed U.S. and Pakistani sources.

The respected NEFA foundation, which tracks terrorists worldwide, cites a European intelligence source who says Al-Adel is believed to be in Waziristan, part of the tribal areas of Pakistan.
