Qaida's new target: Sites outside US

WASHINGTON: Under the new leadership, al-Qaida is planning to shift its strategy from attacking inside the US to those western targets outside America , a report has said. This is because , new al-Qaida leader Ayman al-Zawahiri , believes that it is easier to attack western targets outside the US rather than within.

"This attack strategy better aligns with the goals of al-Qaida's leaders in Pakistan and affiliates , which are increasingly becoming the group's frontline operators," the Wall Street Journal reported. However it is not clear how the new al-Qaida leader would execute his new strategy.
