Al-Qaeda to target India, US diplomatic missions?

The Al-Qaeda has showed another video on Sunday and claimed that India and US diplomatic missions were it’s legitimate targets. According to the report, Al-Qaeda’s production subsidiary As-Sahab complied the video in which Adam Gaddahn, a wanted American member of al-Qaeda, said that the targeting of ‘Tel Aviv, Moscow and Delhi’ is Al-Qaeda’s legitimate right.

The narrator accused India of slaughtering more than 100,000 Muslims in Kashmir and the US helped India to do so. He further said that the US missions in Gulf Arab states are also their potential targets.

Adan Gaddahn said:

We shall continue to target you at home and abroad just as you target us at home and abroad.

LauraMansfield.com, an American website which monitors terrorist groups, has showed the video.

The video starts with a animation sequence showing the March 2006 attack on a US Embassy vehicle in Karachi, Pakistan in which four people including one American diplomat were killed. The video includes footage of the aftermath of the US Embassy bombings in Africa in 1998, the 2001 attacks on the World Trade Center, the Madrid bombings in 2003, and the London bombings in 2005.

Adan Gaddahn said in the video:

We shall continue to target you, at home and abroad, just as you target us, at home and abroad, and these spy dens, and military command and control centers, from which you plotted your aggression against Afghanistan, and Iraq, and which still provide vital moral, military, material, and logistical support to the Crusade, shall continue to be legitimate targets for brave, Muslims, like our martyred brother Umar Uthman, until and unless you heed our demands. Stop the Crusade and leave the Muslims alone.

He said to the Americans and their ‘Crusader allies’:

The amount of respect we have for your international law is even less than the respect you hold for defined sharia (Islamic law), and our observance of it is comparable to your observance of sharia.

Gadahn is said to be in Pakistan and he has a one million dollar reward for his capture as he was among the 26 “faces of global terrorism” featured by the US.
