    A video has emerged in which the man who attempted to set off a car bomb in New York defends his actions. Faisal Shahzad says in the tape he is carrying out the Times Square attack for Muslim fighters, "oppressed and weak Muslims", and "martyrs".

    The Pakistani-born US citizen admitted all charges relating to the attempted attack on 1 May. A petrol and propane bomb was left in a car but failed to ignite. Shahzad is due to be sentenced in October. A street vendor saw smoke coming from the vehicle and alerted the police. Shahzad was arrested two days later as he tried to take a flight to Dubai from New York's John F Kennedy airport.

    In the video, broadcast on the al-Arabiya TV station, Shahzad refers to Taliban leader Baytullah Mehsud and al-Qaeda in Iraq leader Abu Musaab al-Zarqawi - both of whom were killed by US forces.

    "This attack on the United States will be an attack for all the mujahideen, the oppressed and weak Muslims, the martyrs such as Baytullah Mehsud and Abu Musaab al-Zarqawi and all those Muslims and Arabs who have been martyred," he says.

    "I carry out this for them and I hope that they are pleased with it."

    He added: "Eight years have passed since the Afghanistan war (began) and you shall see how the Muslim war has just begun, and how Islam will spread across the world."

    people / muslims are so obsessed as they could get trained with out any problem in pakistan probably. I don't see other reason most of the terrorists are enjoying a total grip on terrorism training.

    This could stop only when the forces are "really acting" on the culprits, there are high doubts about the seriousness from the Pak's side, its the same reason every picks on them, b'coz of few dumb heads a whole country is getting false image in the world. Its sad.

    Because of few dumb heads the rest of country turn into raving idiots who are supporting this shit
    and that is why the rest of the World react to country where morons strapped in suicide belt
    celebrated as some heroes.
