Description | Zawahiri says Musharraf must be toppled
The Washington Times
In a new audiotape, broadcast by Arabic television al-Jazeera, a voice said to be that of al-Qaida leader Ayman urged Pakistanis Thursday to overthrow President Pervez Musharraf because he was "a traitor." The speaker, who Al-Jazeera said was al-Zawahiri, al-Qaida's second-in-command, called Musharraf "a traitor and a slave of America."
"I call on Pakistani troops not to follow the orders of Musharraf, and urge the people of Pakistan not to obey him," he said. "It is the religious duty of Islamic scholars in Pakistan to expose the real face of Musharraf, the traitor," said the voice which apparently was that of al-Qaida chief Osama bin Laden's right-hand man. |
