Posted by NEWS on 11/9/2004, 21:01:44 The following are excerpts from the video tape by Al-Qaidas Ayman al-Zawahri issued just ahead of the anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks. The statement was aired on Al-jazeera and has been confirmed as authentic by the CIA. We remind our viewers that the statements, opinions and points of view expressed in this article are those of the author and shall not be deemed to mean that they are necessarily those of Jihad Unspun, the publisher, editor, writers, contributors or staff. The Mujahideen are in a strong position in Afghanistan and have turned US plans in Iraq "head over heels. In Afghanistan, the Mujahideen have driven US forces to hide in their trenches. East and south Afghanistan have become an open arena for the Mujahideen. The enemy is limited to their capitals. The Americans are hiding in their trenches and refuse to come out to face the Mujahideen, as the Mujahideen shell and fire on them, and cut roads off around them. Their only defense is to bomb by air, wasting US money as they kick up dust. As for the situation in Kabul, the Americans and the allied forces suffer from the Mujahideen's shelling and expect the martyrdom operations at any time, with God's help. As for Muslim Iraq, the Mujahideen have turned America's plan upside down after the puppet government's weakness became clear. The Americans in both countries are between two fires; if they continue, they will bleed until death, and if they withdraw, they will lose everything. America's defeat in Iraq and Afghanistan has become a matter of time, God willing. Bush, reinforce your security measures. The Islamic nation which sent you the New York and Washington brigades has taken the firm decision to send you successive brigades to sow death and aspire to paradise.
