Bin Laden To Issue 'Strong Message' To The Islamic world Soon

Cairo, Egypt (AHN) - Al-Qaeda chief Osama bin Laden is going to send a new, strong message soon addressing the Islamic world, according to the a website the group is using.

The militant group has been using Al-Sahab website, which said that Bin Laden is going to issue a message to Muslims, to carry the terror network's messages.

"To the Islamic ummah (nation), soon, God willing, a very strong address from the lion of Islam, Sheikh Osama bin Laden," the Internet site said, according to Agency France Press.

The announcement came two days after an audio message was issued by Bin Laden on the Internet on Friday that marked the 60th anniversary of Israel's foundation.

In the message posted on Friday he condemned Western leaders for taking part in Israel's celebrations and he pledged to continue his struggle against the Jewish state.

"The participation of Western leaders with the Jews in this celebration confirms that the West supports this ugly Jewish occupation of our lands and that they stand in the Israelis' trench against us," he said on Friday, according to AFP. "We will continue the fight against the Israelis and their allies... and we will not give up one inch of Palestine, God willing, as long as there is one sincere Muslim on this earth."

Bin Laden, who was born in Saudi Arabia, has a $25 million bounty on his head but his whereabouts are still unknown.
