Osama Bin Laden has warned the United States that it will never enjoy security until the Palestinians also feel secure, and not until "the infidel's armies leave the land of Mohammed."
This was apparently a reference to the presence of US troops in Saudi Arabia, where most of Islam's holiest shrines are located.
The statement by Bin Laden was broadcast on Al Jazeera television in Qatar two hours after the US and Britain began attacks on Afghanistan.
According to the station, it was recorded during daylight hours on Sunday.
Bin Laden's statement was preceded by a call to Muslim youth to launch a jihad or holy war on the United States and its allies by his closest ally, the Egyptian Ayman el Zawahri.
The two men were filmed standing against rocks speaking to the camera holding a microphone.
