Al-Qaida Cell Claims Rocket Attack in Israel

By Evan Kohlmann

A previously unknown group calling itself "Al-Qaida's Committee in Palestine" has claimed responsibility for an alleged rocket attack on a "strategic target" in Israel.  According to a statement from the group, "The operation was kept in secret until now in order to insure the safety of our mujahideen brothers.  We proudly declare the initiation of our attacks and we inform the Zionist enemy to expect more innovative operations.  Let the world realize that jihad in the cause of Allah will not be stopped by borders and walls.  We inform our brothers that we keep our doors open to all brothers who want to declare jihad in the cause of Allah."
