 In a new video released by the Algerian Salafist Group for Prayer and Combat (GSPC)--a known Al-Qaida affiliate group active in North Africa--GSPC commander Abu Musab Abdel Wadoud has sworn that Allah will "destroy America" and further sent greetings to "the leaders of jihad, who are the true leaders after their own leaders became apostates. They are the source of light in our dark exile and the hope for the wounded nation of Islam. To the fighting Shaykh Abu Abdullah Usama Bin Laden, Mullah Mohammed Omar, Shaykh Ayman al-Zawahiri, to the beloved hero and the leader Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, to the patient brothers and brave lions in Chechnya — Abu Hafs [al-Urdani] and [Abu Omar] al-Saif, to the brave fighters in Palestine and to the mujahideen everywhere — may Allah protect you all." |
