(CNN) -- In a 55-minute long video, al Qaeda announced it will launch a new branch in the Indian subcontinent.

Speaking in the video, al Qaeda leader Ayman al-Zawahiri said the purpose is to "wage jihad against its enemies, to liberate its land, to restore its sovereignty, and to revive its Caliphate."

ISIS 'more deadly' than al Qaeda on 9/11 Al Qaeda working on 'undetectable bombs' Will ISIS and al-Qaeda join forces? How did ISIS rise to power?

Al-Zawahiri also said he seeks to gain support "for the vulnerable" in Myanmar and Bangladesh; in the Indian states of Assam and Gujarat; and in Kashmir, the disputed region between India and Pakistan. He called for "rescue" from "injustice, oppression, persecution, and suffering" in these areas.

Some analysts view al Qaeda's announcement as an indication they're struggling for followers as ISIS gains support in the global Islamist movement.

What do they think it is a Walmart or sumpin. The Hindu's in India will destroy Al Qaeda and every Muslim in their path. Right after 9/11 happened I heard a Hindu man talking and he said he could not believe the restraint we Americans have. He said if something like that had happened in India, we would have killed 50,000 Muslims just on suspicion alone and another 150,000 after confirmation.

Maybe they’re competing for market share with ISIS....who’s reportedly setting up a *branch* in Juarez, MEX.

It means Pakistan Army have told him that his protection will continue.
Recently, Pakistan started firing at Indian border and trying to heat up that area, they need AID from US tax money.

He said if something like that had happened in India, we would have killed 50,000 Muslims just on suspicion alone and another 150,000 after confirmation.

In 2008 Muslims attacked Mumbai and murdered 150+ people in a multi-day spectacular killing spree.

Not much happened as a reaction.
