Zarqawi aide calls for attacks on Vatican, White House


DUBAI — The deputy to Al Qaeda’s 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.


This is the first time that Al Qaeda, the terror group led by Osama bin Laden, mentions the Vatican as a possible target.

No, I hadn't seen that threat. Thanks for posting it - very interesting to say the least. Thousands of people at the Vatican in recent days/weeks and NOW they choose to issue the threat, when everyone has safely gone home.

The insurgents are getting more frisky and need to be tamed down a notch or two. Letting them get away with the death and chaos they are causing is giving them fuel for their fires. We need to take them out (and I don't mean nicely). IMHO it is deplorable it will take until October to get our troops up to date first-aid packs. May our troops do whatever is necessary to remove the insurgents from this earth, stabilize Iraq as much as is humanly possible and return home safely.
