Well, this is just a personal opinion, but jihadi funds seem to be running low and the messages by Zawahiri and Mullah Omar and GSPC, etc. seem to be their efforts to pump up the base and to let the jihad base and supporters that they are still alive.
Of course, here on TM we know that jihad is global and jihadis are global.
We know that the internet ties these groups together into one "global community." We know they hate us. We believe that they will attack us if they have the means and opportunity to do so.
Disclaimer: I could be wrong.

It's past the five-year mark. We've been pretty successful at thwarting attacks until now. I just don't feel comfortable with the rats in charge and Rummy gone. It seems like there are no more tough Republicans on the Hill with any fight left in them and that worries me.
VANCOUVER (CP) - A security breach at Vancouver International Airport has prompted officials to hold departing flights, resulting in a backlog of about 3,000 passengers and at least 10 flights.
Airport spokesman Ralph Eastman says the airport was notified by the Canadian Air Transport Security Authority of a potential security breach involving a passenger. As a precaution, all departing international flights were held but Eastman says domestic and incoming flights were not affected.
The incident began at 11:20 a.m. PST. The airport then decided to remove all the passengers waiting for international flights from the terminal and re-screen them all.
The incident occurred during the busiest time of the day for international flights - between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m.
