Osama bin Laden DEAD: The one time that he mentioned Kashmir

Srinagar, May 6: Though no attack on India has been directly tracked back to Osama bin Laden, the motley group of Al-Jehad everywhere who united under the Al-Qaeda umbrella might have supported terror attacks on Indian soil.

Even though the dreaded self-proclaimed holy warrior only once mentioned India in his televised addresses, he was regarded a credible threat to the country, as a terrorist with the means to galvanise and support various groups working against the state.

In a statement aired by Al Jazeera on April 23, 2006, bin Laden spoke of India and Kashmir for the first time directly and claimed there was a Zionist-Hindu conspiracy against Muslims.
