“Austria: Hostage-taker deadline for meeting demands passes”
By ASSOCIATED PRESS
VIENNA, Austria
ARTICLE SNIPPET: “An ultimatum set by Islamist militants holding two Austrian tourists expired Sunday with no official word from the captors. Earlier, authorities in Vienna said they believed they had more time to pursue the couple’s release.
Al-Qaida in Islamic North Africa had given authorities until midnight to release some of its members in jails in Tunisia and Algeria in exchange for Wolfgang Ebner and Andrea Kloiber. The pair disappeared while on vacation together in Tunisia last month.”

Zawahiri calls for attacks on Israel (snipped)
“Israel and additional Western targets must be attacked as revenge for Israel’s aggressive policy in the Gaza Strip,” Osama bin Laden’s deputy, Ayman al-Zawahiri said in a recording released by an al-Qaida-affiliated Website on Sunday night, several days after bin Laden himself called on Palestinians to “suspend all negotiations with Israel and start a Jihad war to liberate Palestine.”
“Muslims, this is our day,” Zawahiri said. “Strike the interests of Jews and Americans, and all those who wield aggression against the Muslims. Today no one can say that we are battling the Jews in Palestine alone.” . . .
Zawahiri lambasted the leaders of several Arab states, who he claimed were complicit with Israel in the blockade of the Gaza Strip, calling the leaders of Egypt, Jordan and Saudi Arabia “part of a satanic pact.”
“This satanic pact reveals to us its ugliness and baseness…They allowed Israel to carry out aerial raids in the Gaza Strip on a regular basis, and swore to bring an end to rocket fire on Israel,” Zawahiri charged. . .

. . .The meeting was underway. The official hosting the gathering was Ali Akbar Nateq-Nouri, a top advisor to Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. With him were Iranian intelligence officials involved in planning overseas terrorist operations. The guest of honor was there, too, and would soon gain worldwide notoriety: Dr. Ayman al-Zawahiri, the top deputy to Osama bin Laden. Zawahiri had come to discuss Al Qaeda’s latest plans, and to relay his boss’s keen desire to cooperate more with Iran. It was January 2001, eight months before the attacks of September 11.
The late arrival, who now entered the room, was critical to Al Qaeda’s strategy. For 20 years, Zawahiri had been working with Iran’s Revolutionary Guards, and his main partner had been this man whose youthful appearance belied his cruel nature. He was Imad Mugniyah, Iran’s star operative, a terrorist with legendary skills and the mind of a psychopath. Lebanese by birth, he had risen over the years to become the top military official in the Iranian-backed terrorist organization Hezbollah.
. . . Joining the seated group, Mugniyah listened as Zawahiri said that it was time for Al Qaeda and Iran to bury the hatchet. Iran’s past support for the Taliban opposition in Afghanistan had angered bin Laden, but differences now had to be put behind them. Fighting the common enemy, the United States and Israel, is much more important than the things that divide us, Zawahiri told the Iranians. Nateq-Nouri agreed — which meant the alliance had the political blessing of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
After the meeting, Mugniyah took Zawahiri and his men to meet the leaders of the Qods Force. Already Iran was facilitating the travel of Al Qaeda operatives to and from Afghanistan, as the 9/11 Commission later found. Zawahiri wanted to know if there were ways to expand this cooperation. In the weeks to come, Mugniyah would find those ways. . .

Kayhan Editor Close To Iran’s Supreme Leader Khamenei: ‘America and Its European Supporters Must Know... That the Price of Supporting [Israel] Will Cost Them the Property and Lives of Their Citizens... If the Heads of Some Islamic States Prevent the Muslim Peoples from Attacking the Zionists... They Can Be Toppled’
In a January 26 op-ed in the Iranian daily Kayhan, the paper’s editor, Hossein Shariatmadari, who is close to Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, called on Muslims to unite in a retaliatory attack on American, European, and Israeli “sensitive centers” because of “the war crimes that these countries are committing in the Gaza Strip” and because of their support for Israel.
In his op-ed, Shar’iatmadari stressed that American and European civilians must be harmed in these attacks, so as to make the U.S. and the European countries change their policy towards Israel. He further called for harming Israelis worldwide, and explained that Islamic regimes that prevent an Islamic attack on Israel must be toppled, because they are defending the enemy. . .
