New tape says U.S. targeting Islam
Associated Press

CAIRO, Egypt -- An audiotape attributed to al-Qaida deputy Ayman al-Zawahri and broadcast on two Arab satellite channels Sunday accused the United States of trying to abolish Islam.

The tape, aired in excerpts on Al-Jazeera and Al-Arabiya, appeared to be recent, as the speaker referred to a visit by Prime Minister Ariel Sharon to India earlier this month and the Sept. 6 resignation of Palestinian Prime Minister Mahmoud Abbas.

A CIA spokeswoman said the agency has a technical analysis of the tape under way to determine its authenticity.

"The crusade camp that is led by America ... is targeting Islam and Muslims, even if it claims that it is fighting terrorism. ... This campaign is seeking to abolish Islam as a doctrine and a law," the speaker said.

"Musharraf is the one who enabled America to end the Islamic emirate in Afghanistan. Without him, America would not have been able to do that," the speaker said. " that quote kinda says that Musharraf has a BIG Bullseye on him! :bounce:
