Osama bin Laden is still in Afghanistan and is planning further attacks on American interests, a spokesman from Afghanistan’s ousted Taliban regime said today. A man identifying himself as Taliban spokesman Mohammed Saiful Adel said Bin Laden’s presence in Afghanistan was confirmed in a leaflet distributed to Taliban leaders in the south of the country.
And leaflets don’t lie.
The statement, read to AFP by Adel via satellite phone from the south of the country: "The leaders of Taliban and the military commanders and of course our special guest Osama bin Laden and (Egyptian al-Qaeda leader) Ayman al-Zawahiri are in Afghanistan and are alive, busy planning anti-American operation plans."
Both together in Afghanistan? Well, then we don’t have to worry about compromising Pakistans territorial sovereignty. Thank you very much. |
