Al-Qaeda chief calls on Muslims in Bangladesh to resist evil plan against Islam

A video-message said to be from Al-Qaeda’s current chief Dr Ayman Al-Zawahiri is circulating on the Internet, calling on Muslims in Bangladesh to resist the evil plans of the ‘leading criminals in the subcontinent and the West against Islam.’
bdnews24.com has a copy of the video-message.
The entire message with video footage laid on Al-Zawahiri's audio lasts nearly 29 minutes and is titled "Bangladesh: Massacre Behind a Wall of Silence".
The first two minutes screen footage of last year's May 5 police action at a Hifazat-e Islam rally in Dhaka. Then starts Al-Zawahiri's message hitting at the Western media's alleged silence on 'how Muslims are massacred in Bangladesh'.
“My Muslim brothers in Bangladesh, I invite you to confront this crusader onslaught against Islam, which is being orchestrated by the leading criminals in the subcontinent and the West against Islam, the prophet of Islam and the Islamic creed, so that they may turn you into slaves of a despotic and disbelieving system.”
Describing Bangladesh as a ‘huge prison’, the message says the honour and dignity of Muslims is at stake in the country.
“Bangladesh is the victim of a conspiracy in which the agents of India, the corrupt leadership of Pakistan Army and treacherous power-hungry politicians of Bangladesh and Pakistan are all involved,” the message says.
