Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula

Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula called Iranian President Ahmadinejad a Truther for his “ridiculous” theory that the US government was behind the 9/11 attacks. The group said Iran and Shia in general “do not want to give al Qaeda credit for the greatest and biggest operation ever committed against America because this would expose their lip-service jihad against the Great Satan.”
