Arabic TV station Al Arabiya has broadcast another new tape, supposedly from top Al Qaeda freakazoid Ayman al-Zawahri, threatening the West in that well-known Religion of Peace manner: Qaeda’s Zawahri Issues New Threats Against U.S..
LONDON (Reuters) - An audio tape purportedly by top al Qaeda official Ayman al-Zawahri warned the United States on Sunday it would pay a high price if it harmed any of the detainees it is holding at Guantanamo Bay in Cuba.
“America has announced it will start putting on trial in front of military tribunals the Muslim detainees at Guantanamo and might sentence them to death…” said the voice on the tape, which was broadcast by the Dubai-based Arabic television Al Arabiya.
“I swear in the name of God that the crusader America will pay a dear price for any harm it inflicts on any of the Muslim detainees….”
Al Arabiya identified the voice as Zawahri’s. It gave no details.
“We tell America only one thing: what you have suffered until now is only the initial skirmishes. The real battle has not started yet…” the voice said.
Well, we agree on something. The real battle hasn’t started yet.
