Osama Bin Laden's son threatens to revenge his father's assassination.
The son of slain al Qaeda leader
Osama bin Laden has threatened revenge
against the U.S. for assassinating his father,
according to an audio message posted online.
Hamza bin Laden promised to continue the
global militant group's fight against theU.S.
and its allies in the 21-minute speech entitled
"We Are All Osama," according to the SITE
Intelligence Group.
"We will continue striking you and targeting
you in your country and abroad in response to
your oppression of the people of Palestine,
Afghanistan, Syria, Iraq, Yemen, Somalia and
the rest of the Muslim lands that did not
survive your oppression," Hamza said.
"As for the revenge by the Islamic nation for
Sheikh Osama, may Allah have mercy on him,
it is not revenge for Osama the person but it is
revenge for those who defended Islam."
Osama bin Laden was killed at his Pakistani
hideout by U.S. commandos in 2011 in a
major blow to the militant group which carried
out the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks.
Documents recovered from bin Laden's
compound and published by the U.S. last year
alleged that his aides tried to reunite the
militant leader with Hamza, who had been
held under house arrest in Iran.
Hamza, now in his mid-twenties, was at his
father's side in Afghanistan before the 9/11
attacks and spent time with him in Pakistan
after the U.S.-led invasion pushed much of al
Qaeda's senior leadership there, according to
the Brookings Institution.
Introduced by the organisation's new chief
Ayman al-Zawahiri in an audio message last
year, Hamza provides a younger voice for the
group whose ageing leaders have struggled to
inspire militants around the world galvanized
by Islamic State.
"Hamza provides a new face for al Qaeda, one
that directly connects to the group's founder.
He is an articulate and dangerous enemy,"
according to Bruce Riedel of Brookings.
