AL-QAEDA CALLS FOR CAR BOMB ATTACKS ON AMERICAN CITIES, TARGETS ABROAD
The latest issue of Al-Qaeda’s Inspire magazine contains an article about using car bombs in U.S. cities as well as abroad during election seasons, both presidential and congressional, as well as on Christmas and New Years Eve.
The cities and areas listed in the piece include Washington, D.C., New York, Northern Virginia, Chicago, and Los Angeles.

Chicago targets in terrorist crosshairs, new al Qaeda magazine Inspire says
Two Chicago landmarks are called out by name as suggested car bomb targets for al Qaeda sympathizers in a newly-released Inspire magazine, the publication considered required reading for American jihadists.
“America is our first target” are the un-minced words in the Spring 2014 edition of Inspire, the first publication from al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP) in nearly one year.

Outsider Gets No. 2 Al Qaeda Post, a First for Terror Group
A Member of a so-called al Qaeda “affiliate” group has for the first time ascended to a leadership position in the terrorist group founded by Osama bin Laden, CIA Director John Brennan said this week.
In remarks on Tuesday to the Council on Foreign Relations that went unnoticed amid the hubbub over an escalating feud between the agency and the Senate Intelligence Committee, Brennan said that the new No. 2 is Nasir Abdel Karim al-Wuhayshi, head of the Yemen-based Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP).
Wuhayshi, a 40ish Yemeni who had been either the “personal secretary” or “personal assistant” to bin Laden at the time of the 9-11 attacks, was mentioned as a leading candidate for the long-vacant post in an NBC News report last month on the secret al Qaeda search for a second-in-command.
Word that Wuhayshi had gotten the job and become potential successor to Ayman al-Zawahri came when Brennan responded to a question about the changing nature of Islamic extremism at the Washington, D.C., event, which was hosted by Andrea Mitchell.
