In the Name of God, the M erciful, the Com passionateO ne of Their O wn Bo re Witness [Against Them]A letter from Usama bin-Muham mad Bin LadenTo his brothe r Muslims in the entire w orld, especially in the Arabian PeninsulaPraise God, who said: "O ye who believe! Truly the pagans rre unclean, so let them notafter this year of theirs, App roach the Sacred M osque." Al-Tawba [Koran Surat 29, Verse28]. Prayers and peace upon the Prophet of God, may God bless and keep him, who , fromhis death bed g ave as one of his last commandments, according to al-Bukhari's accountof Ibn 'Ab bas's narration: "Banish the pagans from the Arabian Peninsula."

O h, Islam! O h, Qiblah! [TC: The site in Mecca where Muslims face to pray.]Attention, our people. I am the admonisher in the face of this sinful calamity, theoccupation of the Arabian Peninsu la by the Am ericans and their stranglehold over thebest of God's land: the Qiblah of the Muslims, the place where the Koran was revealed,the location of grave of the Prophet of battle, peace and blessings upon him. This is a newdisaster perpetrated by the Crusaders, having given to the Jews the Hallowed Abode[Jerusalem] and the blessed land around it.
