Although some groups in Pakistan not directly related to Al Qaeda, some of them have shown interest to launch terror attacks that have broad impact such as Al Qaeda attacks on September 11, 2001.
An interest was reflected as a young man from Pakistan named Faisal Shahzad who was trying to kill hundreds of people in Times Square in New York in May 2010. There was also Ilyas Kasmiri who also citizens of Pakistan who blew the bakery in Pune, India in 2009.
One of the world's largest militant group, Lashkar e Taiba makes Pakistani government as their biggest enemy. The group was involved in Mumbai attack, India in 2008 that killed 160 people.
However, many Al Qaeda networks around the world shows a different pattern with the agenda of Bin Laden's group. This was shown by the attacks pattern by Qaeda in the Islamic Maghrib (AQIM), Somalia, led by Ayman al Zawahiri, who in July 2010 attacked on a restaurant in Uganda. AQIM was formed by Zawahiri in late 2006 and declared in 2007 with the aim of forming a new alliance of militant groups in North Africa that became a springboard to attack Europe.
Sympathizers of Al Qaeda in Arabian peninsula are numerous in Yemen. Key figures of this network was Anwar al Awkali, a religious man, born in the U.S.. He used the Internet to build his network. In November 2009, Al Awkali successfully contacted a U.S. military officer rank of major, who shot at a U.S. military headquarters, killing 13 people.
For 15 years, bin Laden spent time trying to convince the leaders of Taliban in Afghanistan, Mullah Mohammed Omar. Bin Laden and Mullah successfully invited his followers to be part of Al Qaeda to launch its global terror attacks. Today, the leaders of Al Qaeda are considered successful to recruit younger members who are prepared to replace members who have been old, captured or killed.

"America can never dream of security before we can all live safe in Palestine. No fair if you live in peace while our brothers in Gaza do not feel it" ~ Osama Bin Laden
CIA was suspecting Hamza bin Laden -- Osama bin Laden's son who was regarded as "The crown prince of terror" -- had left the house after his father was killed in the raid of the army elite Navy SEALs May 1, 2011.
To hunt Hamza, the U.S. has deployed an operation called The Activity. Hamza was believed still in Pakistan. Hundreds of CIA agents have been assigned to track down him. The release of hundreds of agents was carried out after the leader of Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP), Nasser al Wuhayshi vowed that the AQAP would launch the more powerful counterattack. The threat was made in a speech that can be accessed on Al-Ansar Islamic militants website.
The U.S. concern is not without reason, especially after it was revealed from Bin Laden's diary about the plan of next al Qaeda attacks, such as the assault in small towns that will be done on the U.S historic date and in the crowded public places. In his diary, Bin Laden planned to kill U.S. citizens as much as possible on the train, plane or in the crowd during a particular celebration, such as on the anniversary July 4 or the commemoration of 10 years 911 tragedy.
