| Al-Qaeda threatens Italy and Australia |
| 2004-07-24 |
| A group claiming to be the European wing of al Qaeda on Saturday threatened Australia and Italy with attacks if they did not pull troops out of Iraq. The statement signed by "Islamic Tawhid Group, the al Qaeda organization, Europe" and posted on a Web site said it would attack both countries with "columns of rigged cars" if their demands were not met. "Australian people, if your government refuses to withdraw and respond to us we will shake the ground beneath your feet as we did in Indonesia and columns of rigged cars will not stop," it said. "Italian people, we advise you accept our offer and if you refuse you will hear columns of rigged cars shaking your cities," it added. It was the second such statement in a week. On Wednesday the previously unheard-of group threatened Bulgaria and Poland with attacks if they do not pull out from Iraq. The group also threatened to attack Australian interests in Arab and Muslim countries. "Our arms are long and we can reach whoever we want, whenever we want. Follow the path of the Philippines and Spain. It is the correct path which guarantees you a safe and secure life." |
