Radical Islamic websites Wednesday posted an Arab Spring audio message purportedly recorded by Osama bin Laden shortly before he was killed.
The recording, which is more than 12 minutes long and was released by al Qaeda’s media arm, As-Sahab, lists the speaker as bin Laden and calls him “the martyr of Islam.”
The audio begins with a prayer and remarks reportedly made by bin Laden about anti-government protests and uprisings earlier this year in several African and Middle East countries.
The Islamic date with the audio indicates it was recorded between April 4 and May 3.
