Al Qaeda leader Usama bin Laden’s youngest son, Hamza, calls for the destruction of the United States, Britain and their allies in a video posted on an extremist Web site, The Daily Telegraph reported on Wednesday.
In the video, 16-year-old Hamza bin Laden, dubbed the "the Crown Prince of Terror," reads a poem celebrating the third anniversary of the July 7, 2005, London bombings in which 52 people died, and is accompanied by video of his father.
Bin Laden’s youngest son calls for the "accelerated" destruction of America, Britain, France and Denmark, The Telegraph reported.
"Oh, God, reward the fighters hitting the infidels and defectors," Hamza reads. "Oh, God, guide the youth of the Islamic nation and let them assist with the fighters' plans. God, be pleased with those who want to go for jihad — and blind those who are watching and want to capture them. Grant victory to the Taliban over the gangs of infidels."
Hamza, Bin Laden's only son from his marriage to a Saudi woman, is believed to be living on the Pakistan-Afghanistan border, The Telegraph reported. It is not the first video using Hamza to back his father’s cause.
In 2001 he was shown in a joint Taliban and Al Qaeda video of a militant attack on a Pakistan army camp in South Waziristan, along the Pakistan-Afghanistan border.
