Al-Jazeera broadcast a 16-minute audiotape, purportedly recorded by Osama bin Laden, Tuesday.
DOHA, Qatar (CNN) -- In an audiotape broadcast Tuesday on the Arabic television network Al-Jazeera, a voice purported to be that of Osama bin Laden called on Muslims to fight any U.S.-led attack on Iraq and warned leaders of Islamic nations not to help the so-called enemy....
