This poor man will probably die a terrible death at the hands of monsters.

Warren Weinstein, pictured above, is a 70-year-old Jewish American and former USAID worker who was kidnapped from his bed late August in Pakistan. Now, a newly released audio message from al Qaeda leader Ayman al-Zawahiri claims responsibility for Weinstein’s disappearance and says the militant Islamist group is holding the man hostage. This supports a U.S. official’s claim that ”it’s entirely possible that al Qaeda or one of its militant allies may be holding Mr. Weinstein.”
In the 30-minute long statement, which is reportedly circulating on jihadi-websites, al-Zawahiri states:
“I tell the captive soldiers of al Qaeda and the Taliban and our female prisoners held in the prisons of the crusaders and their collaborators, we have not forgotten you and in order to free you we have taken hostage the Jewish American Warren Weinstein.”
The jihadist group also warns Weinstein‘s family not to trust President Obama’s assurances that everything is being done to ensure the American’s release, suggesting Obama would prefer that “[Weinstein] would be killed to get rid of his problem.“ He adds that Obama has the power to either ”kill“ or ”free” Weinstein based on his actions.

I hope he comes safely home, but why would any sane Jewish person go there after what happened to Daniel Pearl?
Nobody needs a big salary THAT badly.
crowing about grabbing an old man, in his sleep, in your own backyard (Pakistan) is just plain pathetic. That counts as a “successful” operation?
Any self-respecting Jihadi should be ashamed!
He’s an American Jew which is explains it all.

Jews don’t belong going to Muzzie countries. Pretty stupid if you ask me. Especially with a name like Weinstein......
To improve the world.
I served man in shitholes in Africa because that is my duty as a Jewish man. I taught English and helped train air traffic controllers and civilian radar people, specifically.
I also carried an illegal sidearm, but that’s me.
Maybe absentee ballot.
But did those particular African governments and most all of their people hate you just because you were a Jew?
“But did those particular African governments and most all of their people hate you just because you were a Jew?”
Pretty much. Regardless of whether they were Christian, anialmalist, or muslim. Thought we had secret Jooo magic powers.
After we were there a while, they really, really liked us and respected us. Which was the point of why our government sponsored us, I suppose.
One was what is now South Sudan, BTW.
For a detailed discussion of the personality of Ayman Zawahiri, see “Seal Target Geronimo”, by Chuck Pfarrer.
It’s the only “inside” story of the mission to bring Osama bin Laden to justice.
Pfarrer is the real deal - ex-SEAL, former member of SEAL Team Six, and a certified hard charger.
Zawahiri is apparently a psychpath - even for a member of al-Qaeda.
Obama will inform Weinstein that he's been signed up for Obamacare, and that because he's 70 years old he was pre-approved for the Blue Pill.

Why is Zawahiri still breathing?
That is CRAZY! Anybody named Weinstein shouldn’t get near an Islamic bung hole like Pakistan. He was old enough to know better.
