Bin Laden Said to Urge Youth Against U.S.

The Associated Press
Saturday, October 18, 2003; 12:30 PM


CAIRO, Egypt - A voice purported to be Osama bin Laden's warned Iraqis in an audiotape aired on Al-Jazeera television Saturday not to cooperate with U.S. occupiers and urged youth in neighboring nations to wage holy war in Iraq.

"We call on all Muslims and Iraqis ... beware of working with the American forces. ... Whoever works with them is an infidel," said the speaker in the tape.

"You young people of Islam everywhere, especially from neighboring states, and Yemen, you have to go wage jihad (holy war) and show your muscles. Follow the right path and don't follow people who follow their whims ... who want to divert you from such a mission," the speaker said.

1. Bin Ladin warns of more anti-US attacks
Bin Ladin warns of more anti-US attacks
Saturday 18 October 2003, 19:34 Makka Time, 16:34 GMT


Aljazeera has broadcast a message from Al-Qaida figurehead Usama bin Ladin advising the United States to leave Iraq, and urging Iraqis to wage holy war on the US "crusaders".

In the tape, played on Saturday, the man blamed by the US for organising the September 11, 2001 attacks gave separate messages to listeners in Iraq and in the US.

To the US, he issued a stark warning that his followers would carry out further actions both inside and outside the United States.

"We, God willing, will continue to fight you and will continue martyrdom operations inside and outside the United States until you abandon your oppression and foolish acts," he said.

To Iraqis, he encouraged resistance against the US-led forces that have ousted former leader Saddam Hussein and taken control of the war-ravaged country.

2. LISTEN TO THESE QUOTES!!!
"America is embroiled in the swamps of Tigris and the Euphrates (rivers). America is in real trouble ... it is now screaming for help, from the lowest of people," he said.

President Bush "thought that Iraq and its oil is a big treasure," the voice said. "Now it is in trouble and resorted to buying mercenary fighters from everywhere."

"We reserve the right to respond to the unjust countries that are taking part in this war," he said.

5. Worse and worse
BushCo gives the impression to many Muslims overseas that the Administration is anti-Islamic. Osama bin Laden gives the US public the impression that all Muslims are terrorists. The hatred and misinformation on both sides just fuels the flames of hate and fear.
