Dash Posted August 4, 2009 Report Share Posted August 4, 2009 In a newly released video interview, al Qaeda deputy Ayman al Zawahiri extended a truce offer from the terrorist group to President Obama today if the U.S. withdraws from Afghanistan. Al Qaeda deputy Ayman al Zawahiri, in a newly released video interview, extends a truce offer from the terrorist group to President Obama today if the U.S. withdraws from Afghanistan.(ABC News)The video references the President's speech in Cairo in early June, making it at least two months old, and suggesting that despite the U.S. manhunt for the terrorist leader, he is still able to follow current events. Zawahiri, like bin Laden, has a $25M reward for his capture. Zawahiri said the truce was a continuation of Osama bin Laden's 2006 offer to President George W. Bush, which required that U.S. forces leave Afghanistan as well as all Muslim countries in the Middle East. Al Qaeda has often offered truces before launching an attack. In the video, bin Laden's deputy is made to look scholarly in a white turban and white robe, sitting in front of a large bookcase filled with Islamic texts background. Zawahiri appeared healthy, gesturing often with his arms. Link Yeah...right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
