DUBAI (Reuters) - Al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden said the United States wants to create a new national unity government in Iraq to control Iraqi oil, build military bases, and dominate the region.
The militant leader urged Iraqis in a recording posted on the Internet on Saturday to reject the envisaged plan and said those who take part in it would be exiting Islam.
It is meant "to give the American all they wish of Iraq's oil," he said.
