Qaeda slams Zarqawi family for disowning him
2005-11-29
Iraq’s Al Qaeda on Monday blasted the Jordanian tribe of its leader Abu Musab al-Zarqawi for disowning him after his group claimed triple suicide bombings in Amman which killed 57 people this month. “How can you disavow the mujahid Abu Musab? It’s either the enemy of God (Jordan’s King Abdullah) has forced you or threatened you to do this or you have voluntarily agreed and obeyed him,” said an Internet statement.

The group, which addressed its statement to Zarqawi’s al-Khalyaleh tribe, said the family had no excuse to disown Zarqawi unless they were coerced into it. Iraq’s Al Qaeda had said it carried out the attacks in three hotels because they were used by US and Israeli spies. The suicide bombings, the deadliest by Islamic militants in the pro-Western kingdom, prompted many neighbours and relatives in Zarqawi’s birthplace of Zarqa - where he was born as Ahmed Fadhil al-Khalayleh of Zarqa - to cast him off.
