Binladen deputy calls attacks Original Source Link: (May no longer be active)    http://sg.news.yahoo.com/030107/1/36abo.html http://sg.news.yahoo.com/030107/1/36abo.html Tuesday January 7, 8:43 PM Bin Laden's deputy calls for attacks on "all Americans" Osama bin Laden's Egyptian lieutenant, Ayman al-Zawahri, has called for attacks on "all Americans", in a message attributed to him and sent to Cairo lawyer Montasser al-Zayyat. "By God, do not prevent new Muslim souls from taking part in the Jihad (holy war), which consists of killing all Americans, just like they kill us all," Zawahri purportedly said in an e-mail, the lawyer told AFP. "The Jihad against the enemies of God who kill us all over the world surely comes at a price. This price is minimal, whatever it is, since it is a matter of satisfying God and reaching paradise," he wrote in the message. "Do not question an act which leads to paradise," read the message sent to the Internet site of Al-Mostaqbal (the future), an organisation founded by Zayyat. The lawyer, who often represents Islamists on trial in Egypt, said he was convinced the message came from Zawahri. Bin Laden's right-hand man in the al-Qaeda terror network also backed a recent decision by Egyptian Islamists to stop attacks in their home country. "As for the halt to operations in Egypt, this is the voice of reason," he said. The former head of Egypt's armed group Al-Jihad, Zawahri is also the personal doctor of bin Laden and conflicting reports have emerged over whether he survived the US military operations against al-Qaeda in Afghanistan. Police said Sunday that 43 people have been arrested in Egypt for allegedly plotting anti-Western attacks in anger at the plight of the Palestinians and belonging to an armed Islamist group. The government daily Al-Ahram said the 43 arrested in the Delta north of Cairo were members of Al-Jihad. However, an initial investigation showed "they have no link with Osama bin Laden's al-Qaeda organisation, even if they were inspired by its ideas and those of Ayman al-Zawahri," according to Al-Ahram.
