One of the 19 terrorist suspects who escaped on May 6 when their hideout was raided by Saudi security forces has said that he has nothing to do with the May 12 Riyadh bombings, but warned the United States that it will be the victim of repeated attacks. Sultan Jabran Al-Qahtani, in a statement purportedly by him posted on an Islamist website, said that he âdid not participateâ in the attacks, but was âso happyâ that they had taken place.
| We're glad you're happy. We want you to be happy. |
Al-Qahtaniâs father recently urged his son to surrender. âSooner or later you will be made to account for your actions by Saudi justice,â he said. The triple suicide bombings in Riyadh left 26 bystanders and nine of the attackers dead. Al-Qahtani said he and many of his friends would continue to fight against the United States until they die.
| And the sooner, the better, I say... |
