Arab rebel leader warns the British: 'Get out of the Gulf.' (Osama Bin-Laden)(Interview)

Article Abstract:

Muslims will shortly begin to attack US targets in the Gulf, according to Osama Bin Laden, who has under his control many Arab mujahedin guerrillas. He has warned that a similar fate will face British and French servicemen in Saudi Arabia if they are not withdrawn. He is strongly opposed to the Saudi regime, particularly the fact that it does not respect Islamic sharia law. He believes that the Middle East's difficulties have stemmed from US attempts to take over the region and from its support for Israel.

Article Abstract:

Supporters of Saudi dissident Osama Bin Laden are living in very strained circumstances, aware that they are being constantly watched by Egyptian security officials and foreign intelligence services. The mujahedin gunmen led by Bin Laden have been accused of being behind insurrection in Saudi Arabia, Egypt and Algeria, and this makes Bin Laden's camp extremely vulnerable.
