Al-Qaeda No. 3 says CIA attack was revenge killing
A top al-Qaeda leader Wednesday praised the Dec. 30 attack on a CIA outpost in Afghanistan and said it was to avenge the deaths of a Pakistani Taliban leader and two al-Qaeda figures.
The claim was made in a message on jihadist Internet forums. It added further confusion to which the group orchestrated the suicide bombing that killed seven CIA employees and a Jordanian intelligence officer and wounded six. (AP)
