Al-Qaida vows revenge for Osama bin Laden's death CAIRO – Al-Qaida confirmed the killing of Osama bin Laden and vowed revenge, saying Friday that Americans' "happiness will turn to sadness." The statement was the first by the terror network since its leader was slain in a U.S. commando raid against his Pakistani hideout. The statement, written in typical al-Qaida style and in the name of the organization's General Command, seemed mostly intended to reassure followers that the terror group remains vigorous and intact. The statement was dated Tuesday, the day after bin Laden's death. Its authenticity could not be independently confirmed, but it was posted on militant websites Friday by the al-Fajr Center, al-Qaida's online media distribution network. Al-Qaida vows revenge First the Taliban in Pakistan and now an official response from al Qaida. For a man that some on this board and around the world claim is not dead, his supporters are making a lot of noise like he is. Rueters, AFP are also running similar stories. There has already been reports that Osama Bin Laden and al Qaida had planned attacks for the 10th anniversary of 9/11 involving Long Island trains.
