Al-Q video shows 'top 10' bombings
A video showing a "Top 10" of bloody attacks against US forces in Iraq that were claimed by al-Qaeda linked groups has appeared on an Islamist website. The 17-minute video is aimed at "those who like to see American crusader blood flowing," said the Islam Media Front which said it posted the footage. One segment shows American soldiers' bodies torn to pieces in an attack near the Syrian border that was claimed by the al-Qaeda Organisation in the Land of Two Rivers (Iraq), the group of Iraq's most wanted man Abu Musab al-Zarqawi. Another shows a US helicopter that was shot down and reduced to shreds of metal by a group calling itself the Islamic Army of Iraq. Yet another scene shows seven US soldiers whose bodies were pulverised in a landmine explosion, before other US soldiers arrived to collect their remains. The scenes are backed by an audiotrack of Koranic chants, war cries and calls of "Allahu Akhbar". The makers of the video call on their sympathisers to "spread the video on foreign forums so that Americans will be ashamed of themselves at the weakness of their army".
