Al Qaeda in Iraq

Al Qaeda’s Islamic State in Iraq said that it would carry out “100 attacks” to avenge the death of senior leaders, including Osama bin Laden. “By God’s will, the campaign starts in the middle of the fasting month [Ramadan] and ends by God’s will after 100 attacks exactly,” the group said.
