In a new audio tape,
Bin Laden promised what he called retaliation for the storming of the radical
Red Mosque in the capital, Islamabad, in July.
He said the army
operation, in which more than 100 people were killed, made Gen Musharraf an
infidel.
The new audio message
was heard on the internet over previously released footage of the militant
leader.
In the tape, Bin Laden
says it is now the duty of Muslims to rebel against what he calls the «apostate leader».
The storming of the
Red Mosque «demonstrated Musharraf’s insistence on continuing his loyalty,
submissiveness and aid to America against the Muslims… and makes armed
rebellion against him and removing him obligatory», Bin Laden said.
Dette melder BBC.
Denne nyhetsmeldingen er spesielt interessant sett i lys av den meningsmålingen
HRS refererte til i forrige uke, som viser at Osama bin-Laden
er mer populær blant Pakistans befolkning enn president Pervez Musharraf. I en
kommentar til denne artikkelen advarte vi om farene ved en islamsk revolusjon i
Pakistan. Bin Ladens siste videomelding har ikke gjort denne advarselen mindre
aktuell.
