Al Qaeda Renews Call to Attack Oil Supplies

Via CT Blog -

In the new issue of "Sawt al-Jihad" (Voice of Jihad), issued today, Al Qaeda returns to an attack policy used in 2005 and 2006, that of targeting oil supplies intended for the West. Rita Katz's SITE Institute provides this commentary: "The Abqaiq oil refinery suicide attack from February 2006 is featured throughout the magazine, some pieces concentrating on individuals involved, and another, titled: “Bin Laden and the Oil Weapon”, discussing this incident, as well as the impact of the Mujahideen targeting oil vis-à-vis America’s dependence upon this resource, and future targets on oil producing countries." Laura Mansfield has made the entire issue available (untranslated).
