CNN-Al Qaeda controls more territory than ever in Middle East. (CNN) -- From around Aleppo in western Syria to small areas of Falluja in central Iraq, al Qaeda now controls territory that stretches more than 400 miles across the heart of the Middle East, according to English and Arab language news accounts as well as accounts on jihadist websites.

Indeed, al Qaeda appears to control more territory in the Arab world than it has done at any time in its history.

The focus of al Qaeda's leaders has always been regime change in the Arab world in order to install Taliban-style regimes. Al Qaeda's leader Ayman al-Zawahiri acknowledged as much in his 2001 autobiography, "Knights Under the Banner of the Prophet," when he explained that the most important strategic goal of al Qaeda was to seize control of a state, or part of a state, somewhere in the Muslim world, explaining that, "without achieving this goal our actions will mean nothing."

Now al-Zawahiri is closer to his goal than he has ever been. On Friday al-Qaeda's affiliate in Iraq seized control of parts of the city of Falluja and parts of the city of Ramadi, both of which are located in Iraq's restive Anbar Province.

CNN has concluded, "Al Qaeda has swept to power with the aim of imposing a strict Islamist ideology across the Middle East and on Syrians across large swathes of Syria's rebel-held north. Chants of death to America and hatred of Americans is at an all time high."

Thank you Hillary and Barack. Kerry will soon give us nukes in Iran, what a mess. Obama has us on path the WWIII with less allies than we've had in 50 years, many believe it was by design.

The NY Times article, which said AQ was not involved in the Benghazi attack, was undercut by those on the ground in Benghazi, by the Times' own prior reporting, and by the Pentagon report linking terrorists in Benghazi to AQ.

There is no pentagon report indicating al qaeda was directly involved...

Who would have ever thought our enemies would grow in strength and size under Obama while our former allies want less to do with us? :?

Obama has done what terrorists couldn't do, weaken us and turn our spy assets on our own people rather than the enemy. WWIII here we come.

Have you alerted Chairman Issa about this?
