The Saudi branch of Al-Qaeda called Wednesday for attacks on oil installations
in countries beyond just the Middle East that supply the United States,
hinting at Canada, Mexico and Venezuela as targets.
"In the long term, the United States will not need the Middle
East (for oil) or it will reduce its dependency on it, and will be
satisfied with oil from Canada, Mexico and Venezuela," the Al-Qaeda
Organistion in the Arabian Peninsula said.
"Oil interests in all regions (of the world) from which the United
States benefits should be hit, not only in the Middle East,"
the group said in an article in its online monthly magazine, Sawt
al-Jihad (the Voice of Jihad).
