Al Qaeda in Iraq

The Islamic State of Iraq, al Qaeda’s front group, declared a curfew and threatened to attack civilians who voted in the March 7 parliamentary election. Anyone who violated the curfew would “expose himself to the anger of Allah and then to all kinds of weapons of the mujahedeen,” the terror group said in a statement released on the Internet.
