Usama Bin Ladin pledged to fight against the alliance of the United States, India, and
Israel. He expressed the hope that Muslims would soon defeat the anti-Islam conspirators
with the grace of Allah. He said that he and his comrades are like mountains of stone
against anti-Muslim aggression. He made this pledge to the whole Muslim ummah in his
message on the occasion of 'Id al-Fitr.
He said the United States wants to rule the world with force. But, we would like to tell it
that we are the soldiers of Allah. Only the followers of Allah and Muslims will rule the
world, he added. The conspiracies of Christians and Jews will not succeed. The United
States should not forget the fate of Russia. The United States will also be divided into 52
states, he warned. We do not accept the world order of the United States, he said, we
believe only in the world order of Allah, he added.
