Zarqawi Audio to Broadcast on Radio Tajdeed
By Nick Grace May 21, 2005
Radio Tajdeed, a satellite program targeting Saudi Arabia and run by a
man with extensive al Qaeda ties, announced Friday that it would air a
new audio tape of Abu Musab al-Zarqawi.
Global Crisis Watch (GCW) Middle East correspondent Marwan Soliman
reports exclusively in a special edition of the program that the station
promised to air a new tape.
"I was tuning to them around 1830 UTC yesterday," he said. "They were
interviewing as usual Dr. Mohammed al-Masari and they came up with a
special announcement saying that they would be broadcasting a special
speech by Abu Musab al-Zarqawi... They said the broadcast would take
place around 1800 hours UTC on Saturday."
It was not clear at press time whether the audio would be from a tape
released on May 18 or a new one.
Radio Tajdeed, which uses the French-owned Eutelsat Hotbird satellite,
was raided earlier this month by British authorities for suspicion of
ties to the kidnappers of an Australian national inside Iraq. Its
program, GCW and Clandestine Radio Watch note, is clearly supportive of
al Qaeda and has encouraged through its music a global jihad against
non-Muslims.
"They have to be very cautious," Soliman reports. "(but) I wonder if they
have become very supportive of al Qaeda since the raid on their studios.
We will just have to wait and see what will come out of Tajdeed Radio
after broadcasting this speech or audio file of Abu Musab al-Zarqawi."
A full report on the broadcast will be carried on the regular edition of
Global Crisis Watch on Monday, May 23, 2005.
