Qassim al-Rimi, commander of Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula, on Sunday said that the Boston Marathon bombing has revealed a weakness in US security and that the world’s number one super nation will not be safe unless their leaders respect the security of other nations and do not attack or oppress them. In a message called “Letter to America” which was also posted on internet, Qassim al-Rimi affirmed that anyone is capable of making bombs as a means of crime in the Boston bombing on April 15. He also called on Muslims in the US to continue to defend their religion and said that the death of Al Qaeda’s international terrorist Osama bin Laden does not end the anti-US sentiment of Muslims.
