DUBAI, Sept 7: Al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden said in a video, issued ahead of the sixth anniversary of the Sept 11 attacks, the US was vulnerable despite its military and economic power.
It was not clear when the tape, acquired by Reuters Television, was made.
“Despite America being the greatest economic power and possessing the most powerful and modern military arsenal, and despite it spending on this war and its army more than the entire world spends on its armies and being the major state influencing the world’s policies as if it has a monopoly on the unjust right of veto ... 19 young men were able ... to change the direction of its compass,” Osama said.—Reuters
