Bin Laden urges Zarqawi to hit the U.S...


 


I go do a couple jobs and come back to that headline. Here is the information from FNC:
WASHINGTON  — Recent communications between Usama bin Laden and Abu Musab al-Zarqawi indicate that bin Laden has "encouraged Zarqawi and his group to focus on attacks inside the United States," multiple U.S. officials told FOX News on Monday.

The sources would not get into detail about how the communication was made or how it was intercepted by the United States. They also said that there is nothing specific in the message, such as maps or references to particular cities or buildings. Rather, the communication simply encourages a "focus" on attacks inside U.S. borders, sources said...

There is something that bothers me about this story. Not sure what...

Update: Ace has an interesting perspective on this story, so does Jeff. Hmmm. Stephen Green too.

Update II: The Jawa Report has more.

Update III: Lee, "It's all about oil, remember?"

Update IV: Chad has some interesting analysis.
