According to Al Wuhayshi, in a statement posted website As-Ansar militant group, the war against the enemies of Al Qaeda led by Osama bin Laden is not alone.
"Do not underestimate this war. There will come a bigger and worse, and you will face something more intense and painful," said the leader of Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP), one wing of Al Qaeda's most aggressive.
Another wing of Al Qaeda, Abdullah Azzam Brigades, also upload the statement contains a new terror threat in one of the militant group discussion forum on the internet, on Wednesday. "We vowed to continue the war," the group said, as quoted by the network monitors militant group, SITE Intelligence Group.
United States, which became the main target of Al Qaeda, increasingly worried by the threat of militant groups in Yemen. U.S. warns, Yemen could become a place of Al Qaeda to reconstitute forces.
Yemen is still affected by the mass demonstrations demanding the resignation of President Ali Abdullah Saleh. U.S. and neighboring countries of Yemen tried hard to find ways for peaceful transition of power that the country does not collapse and become the center of Al Qaeda operations.
Last week the U.S. launched an attack unmanned combat aircraft (drone) against Anwar al-Awlaqi, a Yemeni-born cleric, who allegedly has links with the AQAP. However, the attack failed and only killed two middle-ranking officers AQAP.
In the U.S., a Yemeni citizen named Rageh Almurisi (28) security forces detained on Sunday, after trying to break down the cockpit door of a Boeing 737, belonging to American Airlines before landing at San Francisco Airport.
U.S. authorities do not yet know the motive Almurisi action and have not found this man's relationship with terrorist organizations.
However, Judge James Larson rejected bail petition of Almurisi.
New leader
Speculation continued to emerge about who will replace Osama bin Laden as Al Qaeda's top leadership. Al Qaeda's number two leader, Ayman al-Zawahiri, touted as the strongest candidate for a replacement bin Laden.
However, until now the militant organization has not officially announced who the successor Osama.
Analysts suspect, dissension in the ranks of Al Qaeda and the development of the revolution in the Arab world to make the organization probably would not appoint a new leader.
By Rita Katz and Josh Devon, who wrote a report on the SITE Intelligence Group, Al Qaeda would not necessarily need a new leader. "During the (al Qaeda) can continue to convey their messages, the group will still be a role model for the global jihadist community," writes Katz and Devon.
Some leaders of Al Qaeda's name appears as a candidate leader of the organization, such as Abu Yahia al-Libi, who held the command of Al Qaeda in Afghanistan, or Saif al-Adel, an Egyptian citizen was involved in U.S. embassy bombings in Kenya and Tanzania, 1998.
If Al-Zawahiri be replaced Osama, he faces tough challenge to revive the Al Qaeda that have been weak. Besides reportedly favored by some in Al Qaeda, Al-Zawahiri also have to face reality, the Arab world, which is expected to be the basis of this organization movement, has now changed.
"Osama has become part of the past, such as the Arab regimes that have been overthrown. What a coincidence, authoritarian Arab rulers and Osama collapse killed in the same year," said Khalil al-Anani, an observer jihad movement.
Moazzam Begg, a British citizen who was detained at the Guantanamo prison for an alleged Al Qaeda, said the group probably will change the strategy, with emphasis on small-scale attacks and reduce attacks on civilians.
"There is a widely accepted sense that attacks against civilians are not popular, and the opinions of the people that are currently dominant. Change in the Arab this time will further cover the issue of who the successor Osama," said Begg.
