Hek says US to be driven out of Afghanistan and Iraq
 Afghan militant leader Gulbuddin Hekmatyar said US troops will be driven out of Afghanistan and Iraq like they were in Somalia, according to a statement obtained on Friday. Hekmatyar, who heads the outlawed Hezb-e-Islami party, also offered praise for slain Al Qaida in Iraq leader Abu Musab Al Zarqawi in the statement, which could not be immediately authenticated. "The martyrdom of Al Zarqawi will not weaken the resistance and as the Americans were expelled from Somalia, they will be expelled from Afghanistan and Iraq," according to the statement, which was delivered to The Associated Press reporter in Peshawar.
