Zarqawi Threatens to Kill New Iraqi Prime Minister


Al Qaeda-linked operative Abu Musab al-Zarqawi has threatened to kill Iraq's new Prime Minister Iyad Allawi in a purported audiotape posted on an Internet Web site.

"As for you Allawi -- sorry, the democratically-elected prime minister -- we have found for you a useful poison and a sure sword...we will pursue our mission (to kill you) to the end," the voice on the tape says.
