CAIRO, Egypt - An audio recording purportedly made by al-Qaida-linked militant Abu Musab al-Zarqawi and found online Wednesday threatened to assassinate Iraq's interim prime minister and said the fight against "infidels" would continue "until Islamic rule is back on earth."
"As for you (Iyad) Allawi ... you don't know that you have already survived traps we made for you. We promise you that we will continue the game with you until the end," the online recording said. "We will not get bored until we make you drink from the same glass that Izzadine Saleem tasted."
Saleem, a former Governing Council president also known as Abdel-Zahraa Othman, was killed May 18 in a car bombing in Baghdad.
"You (Allawi) are the symbol of evil and the infidel nation; you are the source of all traitors," the recording said.
