OK, here it is! He admits it. We knew that they had plans for Iraq and if we leave they will try to take it over as a front in the war against Israel.

Al-Jazeera broadcast on Thursday an audiotape on which a voice identified as Osama bin Laden declares “Iraq is the perfect base to set up the jihad to liberate Palestine.”
The voice calls for the people of neighboring countries “to do their best in supporting their mujahedeen brothers in Iraq.”
“My speech to you is about the siege of Gaza and the way to liberate it,” he said.
“The Gaza siege is a direct result of Annapolis,” he adds, apparently referring to the site of November’s summit in Annapolis, Maryland, where Israeli and Palestinian leadership agreed to work toward a two-state solution.
The voice also calls on “Muslims in the neighboring countries” to support the “mujahedeen in Iraq.”
