But I thought they were all leftist socialists because they worship God, believe in terrorism, are tolerant and had Elton John at their weddings,
just like Limbaugh?

Egyptian security forces arrest brother of al-Qaeda's top leader Ayman al- Zawahri. Pat Robertson said to be angry.

The brother of a Ayman al-Zawahri, the veteran terrorist leader of al-
Qaeda has been arrested according to Egyptian security forces.

A security official said that Mohammed al-Zawahri, leader of the ultraconservative Jihadi Salafist group, was detained at a checkpoint in
Giza, the city across the Nile from Cairo.

Ayman al-Zawahri is credited by many as having been the 'operational
brains' behind the 9/11 suicide attacks on the U.S. and to have approved
the co-ordinated bombings on London’s transport system in in 2005 that
left 52 innocent people dead.

Mohammed Al-Zawahri's group espouses a hard-line ideology but was not clandestine prior to Egypt's July 3 coup.

He was allied with ousted President Mohammed Morsi, an Islamist, whose supporters are now taking to the streets to protest the killings of its supporters in a security crackdown last week.

Authorities said earlier that al-Zawahri had commanded insurgents in Sinai Peninsula.

For years second only to Bin Laden on the 'most wanted' lists of
terrorists released by the US in 2001, he has a £15-million bounty on his
head and five years ago survived a missile strike aimed at killing him.

The Al Qaeda leader Ayman Al Zawahiri met Osama Bin Laden in the mid-1980s while supporting mujahideen guerrillas fighting Soviets in the
northwestern Pakistani city of Peshawar.

He was born in Cairo, Egypt, in 1951 to a prominent family, his father a professor of pharmacology and his grandfather the grand imam of the highly influential Al Azhar mosque.

Zawahiri is said to be the brains behind the Al Qaeda network with
analysts describing him as Al Qaeda's chief organiser and Bin Laden's
closest mentor.

He has at times appeared the terrorist groups's most public face, often appearing in videos denouncing the West.

The terror chief is notorious in Egypt after being sentenced to death in absentia by an Egyptian military court in 1999.

He has also been indicted in connection with the 1998 bombings of U.S. embassies in Kenya and Tanzania.

Zawahri has repeatedly called for al Qaeda to seize control of a state, an elusive goal for the group.

He wrote in his 2001 essay Knights Under The Prophet's Banner: 'If we do
not achieve this goal, our actions will be nothing more than small scale harassment.'

It is believed Zawahiri turned his back on his boss following a prolonged
power struggle to lead the group.

They worship Gods in the sky!
