p2pnet news | Politics:- Terrorists are to use the Net to declare war on Pakistan , say reports.

An unidentified Islamist site said it would carry a new video from Al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden, “in which he declares war on Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf and the Pakistani army,” says Reuters.

In the 80-minute documentary style video, which includes footage in English, bin Laden deputy Ayman al-Zawahri, “boasted that the United States was being defeated in Afghanistan, Iraq and other fronts,” says Associated Press, going on:

“Speakers in the video promised more fighting in Afghanistan, North Africa and Sudan’s Darfur region.”

No details were given, says Reuters.

A banner on the site, “advertised that another message would be released, though it did not say whether bin Laden would appear in video or speak in an audiotape,” says AP.

The banner read:

Soon, God willing: ‘Come to Jihad (holy war)’, from sheik Osama bin Laden, God protect him.

Urgent, al-Qaida declares war on the tyrant Pervez Musharraf and his apostate army, in the words of Osama bin Laden.

The video was interspliced with footage from the 9-11 attacks, interviews with experts and officials taken from western and Arab television stations and old footage and audiotapes of bin Laden, says the Canadian Press.
