Al-Qaeda appeals to sympathizers for donations
None
Al-Qaeda is appealing for financial donations for the third time in a little over a year in a sign that the terror network might be short on funds.
A message posted on a militant website Wednesday repeats a June 2009 appeal by the group's top Afghanistan commander, Mustafa Abu al-Yazeed. He said then that many militants in Afghanistan were unable to fight because they lacked money and equipment. Al-Yazeed was killed in an airstrike in May. (AP)
