FOXNews.com - U.S. & World - Iraqi PM Threatened in Purported Zarqawi Tape
A man purporting to be Jordanian terrorist Abu Musab al-Zarqawi has threatened to kill the new prime minister of Iraq.
A recording purportedly made by the apparent mastermind of bombings and beheadings of civilian contractors in Iraq vowed to assassinate Iyad Allawi and fight the Americans “until Islamic rule is back on Earth.”
An official with Allawi’s office dismissed the threat, saying it would not derail the June 30 transfer of sovereignty from the U.S.-led coalition to the interim Iraqi government.
