Osama releases new audio
DUBAI, Dec 16: An audio recording purportedly by Osama bin Laden, praising gunmen who carried out a Dec 6 attack in Saudi Arabia, was posted on the Internet on Thursday, suggesting the Al Qaeda leader is still alive.
In the recording, the speaker blessed a group of Saudi Al Qaeda militants who stormed the US consulate in Jeddah in the first attack on a Western mission in Saudi Arabia.
He lambasted the rulers of Saudi Arabia as "corrupt, oppressive" US agents and warned them they would be toppled in a popular uprising if they did not to allow their people to choose a true Muslim leadership. -Reuters
