The authenticity of the audiotape, obtained by Associated Press Television News on Tuesday, could not be independently confirmed. It was not known when the tape was made — though it includes references to the United States’ recent standoff' with Iraq and a July 1 U.S. bombing in Afghanistan. The speaker said to be al-Zawahri accuses the United States of trying, through its campaign against Iraq, to subjugate the Arab world on behalf of Israel. Al-Zawahri, an Egyptian who is regarded as a primary strategist of the al-Qaida terrorists and was with bin Laden in Afghanistan, disappeared soon after Sept. 11 but is widely thought to have survived U.S. bombing there. U.S. officials say they don’t know whether he or bin Laden are alive. The audio interview attributed to al-Zawahri was obtained by APTN in the form of a video compact disc. On the disc, the interview is played against a video backdrop with English subtitles of the conver sation, along with scenes from the Sept. 11 attacks and other news footage. A title in the video identifies the speaker as al- Zawahri and says the video is a productionofildesire to find As-Sahaab Foundation for Islamic Media.
