Al-Qaida tries to upset Palestinian peace talks
Al-Qaida’s deputy leader Ayman al-Zawahri denounced last month’s Middle East peace conference in the United States as a “betrayal” of Palestinians in a new audio tape posted on an Islamic militant Web site today.
It was the first reaction by the terror network to the conference, sponsored by President George Bush and attended by key Arab countries, including Saudi Arabia, Syria and Egypt, as well as Palestinian and Israeli leaders.
