Al-Qaeda wing claims US plane attack
A group calling itself Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula has said it was behind the failed attempt by a Nigerian man to bomb a US aircraft on Christmas day. The group said in statements posted on the internet that the attempt had been carried out to avenge US operations in Yemen. "We tell the American people that since you support the leaders who kill our women and children ... we have come to slaughter you [and] will strike you with no previous (warning)," the statement said. The group had earlier said in comments posted on a website that it would take revenge against the US over air raids in Yemen that it claims killed about 50 people.
