Qatar-based Al-Jazeera television has aired a video of Al Qaeda number two Ayman al-Zawahiri vowing to avenge the death of the network's Iraq frontman Abu Musab al-Zarqawi.
Zarqawi was killed in a United States air raid in Iraq on June 7.
In the video, Zawahiri is seated in front of a picture of Zarqawi.
He addresses US President George W Bush directly.
"Yes O Bush, none of us is killed without us avenging him, with the help of God," he said.
"Do you remember, O Bush, how the lion of Islam, the mujahed [holy warrior] Osama bin Laden, God keep him, swore that America will not be able to dream of security until it becomes a reality in Palestine and all Muslim lands?"
Zawahiri also blasts Iraqi Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki, saying he "trades with Islam" for power.
He describes US Ambassador Zalmay Khalilzad as "the Afghan apostate".
Zawahiri says Zarqawi "died under bombardment" and not in hiding, and never shed his "explosives belt".

Vows revenge? They "vowed revenge" way before Zarqawi was killed. Their rhetoric ain't stirring no Muslims up.

First of all...the leopard skin nightie and the Jackie O sunglasses belonged to the goat.
It was the goat that had a tracking device embedded in it.
It was the goat in bed with Zarqawi that guided the 500 pound bombs right up diaper head's butt.
That Goat was a hero..they should erect a statue in his honor.

I remember reading some reteric from one of these dipchits last week when Zarqawi took a dirt nap...some crazy dude was avenging Zarqawi's death, and he said "God keep him" as he talked about him.
Now notice when he talks about Bin Ladin he says "God keep him" Im think'n Bin Laden's dead, and his homie just admitted it.

I don't know I would go that far....after all I'm the freeper who thinks he is still alive after all these years.....but it is an odd choice of words...
"God keep him..."....very odd indeed.

WOW! Brave and scary words coming from a dead tick eating DNC Moon-Bat, who spends his days getting sloppy seconds from Osama after he's done fornacating his male goats!
