Al Qaeda's second-in-command has accused President Obama of supporting a Palestinian state that would do the bidding of Israel.
Ayman al-Zawahiri says on a recent tape, "Israel is a crime that needs to be wiped out."
"Obama wants a Palestinian state that works as a branch for the Israeli government," Ayman al-Zawahiri said in a nearly 90-minute video called, "The Realities of Jihad and the Fallacies of Hypocrisy."
The latest in a series of such videos was posted Monday on radical Islamist Web sites by al Qaeda's production company, As-Sahab Media.
"Israel is a crime that needs to be wiped out," said al-Zawahiri, who likened Obama's policies to those of President Bush.
"The promises of the two states and ending the settlements were made by Bush, so what's new? This is the continuation of the same Zionist crusader crime against Muslims since the end of World War II," he said.
"Obama can come with all the eloquent words he has, but it is nothing but illusions."
Al-Zawahiri referred to a conditional truce offer he said had been made by al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden. source: cnn.com
