"Zarqawi aide calls for attacks on Vatican, White House"
ARTICLE SNIPPET: "DUBAI The deputy to Al Qaedas frontman in Iraq, Abu Musab Al Zarqawi, has asked for orders to attack the White House and the Vatican, according to an audiotape posted on the Internet yesterday.
To our emir (leader) Abu Musab Al Zarqawi ... we say: We are ready for your orders. We are determined to fight the infidels, said Sheikh Abdulrahman Al Iraqi in the tape, whose authenticity could not be verified.
If you point at the White House or the Vatican, we would make every effort so that you reach your target, he added, in the online statement broadcast a day after a call by Zarqawi to his followers to intensify their fight against the Americans in Iraq."
