| | [R-G] *About* Al Qaida statement |
 | | NEW YORK and CAIRO -- A spokesman for Osama bin Laden's al-Qaida network, Sulaiman Abu Ghaith, speaking on a videotape aired on Qatar's Al-Jazeera satellite channel, said President Bush, his father, former President Clinton and the prime ministers of Israel and Britain would not "escape punishment" for the deaths of Muslims. |
 | | The news is what you see, not what you hear." In addition, Abu Ghaith denounced Islamic nations, accusing a gathering of foreign ministers from the 56-member Organization of the Islamic Conference this week of "supporting the strike." "They don't represent the Islamic nation and they don't have legitimacy," he said of the OIC members. |
 | | CNN aired a brief portion of the message from bin Laden spokesman Suleiman Abu Gheith about an hour after it was received from the Al-Jazeera television network, but Fox News Channel and MSNBC executives said the tape was not newsworthy. |
