Al-Qaida No. 2 to speak on pope, Web site says

CAIRO, Egypt - Al-Qaida No. 2 Ayman al-Zawahri will soon release a new message about the pope, U.S. President George W. Bush and Sudan's troubled Darfur region, an Islamic Web site said Wednesday.

A banner warning of the upcoming message was posted on an Islamic Web site that frequently airs al-Qaida videos. Wednesday's notice did not specify whether the new message was a video, audiotape or text, but al-Zawahri usually releases videos.

Interesting. I wonder if he's going to call for attacks on the Pope. Frankly, I think it would be counterproductive for them. The pope is about as innocent as they come. It would be a PR disaster-- even many moderates would really have it in for Al-Qaida.

We will see what we shall see.
