The letters mention restructuring al-Qaeda in order to develop a unified stance toward the Arab region, and they contained very virulent rhetoric that called on members to follow the example of bin Laden.
However, the same source says that there are disputes within al-Qaeda, and that these letters are intended to encourage the movement's members and develop a strategy for Syria, Iraq, Tunisia and Saudi Arabia.
