DUBAI (Reuters) - Al Qaeda in Iraq vowed on Sunday to carry out large-scale attacks that would "shake the enemy" after the killing of its leader Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, but did not name a successor.

The group, in an Internet statement, said its leading body held a meeting after Zarqawi's death to discuss strategy and renew a pledge to al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden.

"We plan large-scaled operations that will shake the enemy and rob them of sleep, in coordination with the other factions of the Mujahideen Council," said the statement posted an a Web site often used by Islamist militants.
