[JNV] New 7/7 Suicide Bomber Video Confirms Iraq/Afghanistan Link

[Milan Rai]

Dear friends

The latest al-Qaeda video, broadcast on Al-Jazeera television, features
another 7/7 suicide bomber, Shehzad Tanweer.

Tanweer confirms that the bombings on 7 July are connected to British
foreign policy - exactly as the majority of British people believed after
the attacks, exactly as leaks from inside the British government confirmed
in the aftermath of the atrocities, and exactly as charged in '7/7: The
London Bombings, Islam and the Iraq War'.


According to the Washington Post transcript of the broadcast, Tanweer says:

"What have you witnessed now is only the beginning of a string of attacks
that will continue and become stronger until you pull your forces out of
Afghanistan and Iraq. And until you stop your financial and military
support to America and Israel."

The BBC report has Tanweer saying the non-Muslims of Britain deserve the
attacks because they voted for a government which "continues to oppress
our mothers, children, brothers and sisters in Palestine, Afghanistan,
Iraq and Chechnya".

It is unclear how much of this is going to survive into tomorrow's
newspapers. On past form, these crucial elements will be downplayed,
despite the fact that they simply confirm what we already knew.
