GSPC Leader Reflects on Murder of Algerian Diplomats in Iraq
By Evan Kohlmann
The Algerian Salafist Group for Prayer and Combat (GSPC)--a known Al-Qaida affiliate group active in North Africa--has released a new statement from its top commander Abu Musab Abdel Wadoud concerning the execution of two Algerian diplomats in Iraq by Al-Qaida fighters loyal to Abu Musab al-Zarqawi. In his communiqu, the GSPC leader explained, "the American-Algerian relationship is extremely coordinated and strong... The only difference between the oppressors Ibrahim al-Jaafari and Abdelaziz Bouteflika is that the former was transported into Iraq by American tanks whereas the latter was the one who transported American tanks into Algeria... Anyone who chooses the path of treason and oppression should know that his blood will become less valuable than the blood of dogs in the eyes of the mujahideen."
