“Bin-Laden: ‘Free Palestine’ Via Iraq”
by Nissan Ratzlav-Katz

ARTICLE SNIPPET: “(IsraelNN.com) Osama Bin-Laden, head of the international jihadist terror organization Al-Qaeda, issued a new call for Palestinian Authority Muslims to fight against the Americans and their allies in Iraq - as a step on the path to the destruction of Israel.

The audio tape of Bin-Laden, broadcast on the Qatar-based Al-Jazeera satellite TV network on Thursday, included
“The nearest field of jihad today to support our people in Palestine is the Iraqi field.”

a call for a renewed “holy war” on Israel. For its part, Bin-Laden declared, Al-Qaeda would increase its efforts to “free Palestine, all of Palestine, from the Jordan [River] to the [Mediterranean] Sea.”

Among what Al-Jazeera newscasters said were excerpts from a new recording, Bin-Laden said: “My speech is about the Gaza siege and the way to retrieve it and the rest of Palestine from the hands of the Zionist enemy. Our enemies did not take it by negotiations and dialog, but with fire and iron. And this is the way to get it back.”

The Saudi-born Islamic fundamentalist linked the jihad against Israel with the Iraqi insurgency: “The nearest field of jihad today to support our people in Palestine is the Iraqi field.”

Bin-Laden added that those of “our brothers in Palestine who could not join the jihad in the land of Al-Quds [Jerusalem]” should “get rid of illusions of political parties and groups which are mired in trickery of the blasphemous democracy and to take their positions among the ranks of the mujahideen in Iraq.”

The latest Bin-Laden audiotape follows on the heels of a recording publicized one day earlier, in which the Al-Qaeda leader threatened European nations with “severe” retaliation for the publication of cartoons mocking Islam’s founder, Mohammad. The Al-Qaeda leader also accused the Pope of launching a “new Crusade” against Islam.”
