Arabic-language broadcaster, Al-Jazeera, aired an audio tape this
morning that it claims-- is from Al-Qaeda leader Osama Bin Laden.Al-Jazeera did not say how they obtained the tape or if the tape is authentic.
In the recorded message, the man alleged to be bin laden called Israel's recent 22 day offensive in the Gaza strip a, quote, "holocaust" for Palestinians.
Bin laden then blamed Arab leaders for not doing enough to stop the offensive that left nearly 13 hundred Palestinians dead.
If proven to be genuine, this recorded message would be the first word from bin laden since January.... when he released a tape calling on Arabs to wage jihad against Israel.
