Qaeda's Zawahri vows revenge after Libi killing: Web


DUBAI (Reuters) - Al Qaeda's second-in-command Ayman al-Zawahri vowed revenge for the killing of a top group commander in a suspected U.S. attack in Pakistan, in a video posted on the Internet on Wednesday.

"No chief of ours had died of a natural death, nor has our blood been spilled without a response," Zawahri said in the video posted on an Islamist Web site, referring to the killing of Abu Laith al-Libi.

Libi, considered as one of Osama bin Laden's top lieutenants in Afghanistan, was killed in an suspected U.S. missile strike that killed up to 13 foreign militants in Pakistan's North Waziristan border area in late January.

"If one of our chiefs passes, another arises in his place," Zawahri said, without making a specific threat.

"So seek help O Americans and agents of Americans ... from those seeking a way out ... They will be of no help to you," he said, referring to Muslim clerics who have criticized jihadist militants.

The video was produced by al Qaeda media arm As-Sahab and carried English subtitles.

Libi's prominence in al Qaeda was highlighted last year by his appearance in a video with the group's deputy leader. He was the first spokesman to announce bin Laden had survived the U.S.-led invasion of Afghanistan in late 2001.

U.S. media have said the Libyan-born militant was believed to be behind a suicide bombing in February 2007 that killed 23 people outside the main U.S. Bagram base in Afghanistan during a visit by U.S. Vice President Dick Cheney.

In October the U.S. military in Afghanistan named Libi among several "mid-level" al Qaeda and Taliban leaders and offered a $200,000 bounty for him, U.S. media reported.

...nor has our blood been spilled without a response...

Right back atcha, Al Q.

Right back atcha.

You dropped two towers and damaged a building.

We disassembled your country in 100 days - something the Soviets failed to do in ten years.

You getting the point yet, Al Q?

Of course, you are correct. My error.

In defense of the folks on that plane - they fought and won.

We all need a little reminder now and then.

Make sure you watch to the end. If it doesn't choke you up a little, somethings wrong.

I watched them paint "Let's Roll" on the C-17's at McChord, standing at attention with my M4.

I think we need to be meaner and nastier, but I'm glad we are still whacking them.

Old news fuck head. That happens here all the time. You'll run out before we do.

Bring it bitch. You're asking for more heartache than you can handle.

well put. they also established (along with the other planes), that nowadays you do NOT fuck around on a plane (a la richard reid or whatever his name is), unless you want to get fucked up.

To quote a favorite comic book character of mine, the ever loving blue eyed Thing, "It's clobbering time". I think we need to clobber Al-Queda allot more.
