al-Qaida’s American Seeks Bush Attacks
By ANNA JOHNSON – 3 hours ago
CAIRO, Egypt (AP) — Al-Qaida’s American spokesman urged fighters to meet President Bush with bombs when he visits the Middle East, according to a new video posted on the Internet Sunday.
U.S.-born Adam Gadahn also tore up his U.S. passport as part of a symbolic protest against the U.S. in the nearly hour-long rhetoric-dominated tape — al-Qaida’s first message of the new year.
The release comes just three days before Bush is scheduled to arrive in Israel for a weeklong trip that will also bring him to the West Bank, Kuwait, Bahrain, the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia and Egypt as part of his push for an Israeli-Palestinian peace agreement.

Bush and other diplomats to bring peace to the Middle East. (AP Photo/Via AP Television)
