The man said to be the suicide bomber who killed seven CIA employees and contractors continue month appears in a newly released record, in which he vows revenge pro the butchery of a Taliban leader.

The record shows Humam Khalil Abu-Mulal al-Balawi, whom a ex- U.S. Acumen authoritative identified as the suicide bomber. Al-Balawi’s brother told CNN Senior International Correspondent Nic Robertson with the intention of the man in the record, who uses the alias Abu Dajana Al-Khorasani, was his sibling.

Inside the tape, which aired Saturday on the Arabic satellite news channel Al-Jazeera, al-Balawi says his message is pro the CIA and Jordanian acumen.

The December 30 bombing by a U.S. Corrupt in Khost, in southeastern Afghanistan, killed seven CIA operatives and a Jordanian army captain.

Al-Balawi was a Jordanian doctor whom Jordanian establishment had recruited as a counterterrorism acumen source, a Jordanian authoritative told CNN this week.

Jordanian and U.S. Acumen agencies apparently said al-Balawi had been converted from his extremist views and were using him to hunt Ayman al-Zawahiri, al Qaeda’s No. 2 map, a ex- U.S. Acumen authoritative understood.

Al-Balawi says in the record with the intention of his faith cannot be sold to bidders, an obvious message to Jordanian and U.S. Officials with the intention of they had disastrous to win his commitment. It puts into question how well the CIA and other acumen agencies can infiltrate al Qaeda.

Gen. David Petraeus, head of U.S. Central Command, told CNN’s Christiane Amanpour with the intention of community officials are better by “human intelligence” than foreign agents.

“That’s not to say with the intention of you can’t be inflicted with approximately real breakthroughs,” Petraeus understood all through the interview, to be aired Sunday. “It’s not to say you can’t develop sources, you can’t deposit public in here and so forth.”

Al-Balawi mentions Baitullah Mehsud, the leader of the Taliban in Pakistan who was killed in a missile arrange continue eminent.

“We will by no means not remember the blood of our leader Baitullah Mehsud, could God be inflicted with mercy on his soul,” he says in Arabic, according to a CNN translation. “It will wait with the intention of we take revenge (for his death) in America and outside America. It is a trust on each person who missing everything pro the sake of God, whom Baitullah Mehsud supported.”

Al Qaeda’s commander of operations in Afghanistan, Mustafa Abu Yazid, understood this week with the intention of the attack avenged Mehsud’s death.

Mehsud was the leader of Tehrik-i Taliban Pakistan (TTP). It was TTP with the intention of released the record, according to IntelCenter, a think tank with the intention of specializes in tracking terrorist groups.

At lone top, the record shows the appointment of December 20, 2009. That is five days previous to Nigerian passenger Umar Farouk AbdulMutallab allegedly tried to blow up a Northwest Airlines running away to Detroit, Michigan.

The Yemen-based assemble al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula has claimed dependability pro the Christmas Day plot.

It is impracticable to know whether the appointment on the record is accurate, or whether al-Balawi was aware of AbdulMutallab’s alleged diplomacy. If al-Balawi did know in this area the plot, it may possibly indicate a greater degree of interaction linking TTP and al Qaeda than previously planning.

Inside an analysis of the record, IntelCenter understood here is a connection linking the two groups. But IntelCenter furthermore pointed made known al-Balawi appears in the record then to TTP leader Hakimullah Mehsud, and with the intention of it was TTP with the intention of released the record.

“The TTP and al Qaeda be inflicted with a close link, and in all likelihood al Qaeda was involved by approximately level in the surgical procedure,” IntelCenter understood in an analysis of the record. “However, the relief of the record with TTP Emir Hakimullah Mehsud securely seats the attack under the TTP banner.”

Of the seven CIA operatives who were killed in the December 30 attack were two members of the confidential security steady Xe, formerly renowned as Blackwater. The Jordanian services detective who was killed was Army Capt. Sharif Ali bin Zeid, a cousin of Jordan’s sovereign Abdullah II.

It was lone of the most terrible attacks always on America’s acumen convergence.
