Bin Laden threatens to kill Americans in new audio tape
March 25th, 2010 - 7:56 pm ICT by BNO NewsNEW YORK (BNO NEWS) — Al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden on Thursday threatened to have American soldiers killed if Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the alleged mastermind behind the September 11, 2001 attacks, is executed.
Bin Laden made the remarks in an audio recording obtained by Al Jazeera, which often is the first to air his tapes. His last audio recording was released on January 24, which was also first carried by AL Jazeera.
“The day America will take such decision [to execute Mohamed and any others] it would have taken a decision to execute whoever we capture,” Bin Laden said in a transcript from Al Jazeera.
He also said that President Barack Obama is “following the footsteps of his predecessor”, a reference to former President George W. Bush. “The politicians in the White House were practicing injustice against us and still they are. Especially by supporting Israel in its continuous occupation of Palestine,” Bin Laden said.
“They used to think that America across the oceans is protected from the rage of the oppressed until our reaction was loudly heard at your home on the 9/11 with God’s help,” he said in the recording.
