 Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, the leader of al-Qa'eda in Iraq, was wounded recently but is now back in command and will send a message to Osama bin Laden soon, an internet statement has said. The statement, which has not yet been authenticated said that Zarqawi "will be sending his new message to sheikh of the mujahideen, the prince of al-Qa'eda Organisation, Osama bin Laden." The statement was attributed to Abu Maysarah al-Iraqi, the group's spokesman and followed earlier internet postings saying that Zarqawi was in good health after being wounded in Iraq. The American military said recently they thought Zarqawi had been wounded after forces closed in on him. |
