Iraq: al-Zarqawi Denies al-Zawahiri's Letter
The facts must be determined independently of the denial. This is just what is to be expected: Al-Qaeda disowns 'fake letter'
A statement claiming to be by al-Qaeda in Iraq has rejected as a fake a letter allegedly written by Ayman al-Zawahiri, Osama bin Laden's second-in-command.US intelligence published the letter in full, saying it was intended for the alleged head of the movement in Iraq.
In it, Ayman Zawahiri appears to question insurgents' tactics in attacking Shia Muslims in Iraq.
The claims by US intelligence are "based on imagination", a statement posted on an Islamist website.
