BAGHDAD, July 20 (UPI) -- A Web site linked to Abu Musab al-Zarqawi is warning Pakistan, Jordan, Turkey, Iran, all Gulf states, Malaysia and Indonesia not to send troops to Iraq.
The message specifically threatened Japan, but included all Arab and Islamic companies.
CNN reported Tuesday two Islamic militant Web sites posted the waning that said it was from the Unification and Jihad's military wing, the Khaled ibn Waleed Brigade.
However, the source of the message has not been confirmed.
"We in the Unification and Jihad warn Arab and Muslim governments from sending troops to Iraq and supporting the American forces and its allies," said the message, saying they will hit with an iron hand all those who support the Americans, Interim Iraqi Prime Minister Ayad Allawi, and his group.
"Do like what the Philippines did," the message said, referring to the Filipino troop withdrawal after a Filipino was kidnapped.
"And for Arab and Muslim forces, we advise you not to obey if you are forced to be sent to Iraq and if you don't, then, the laden cars will be waiting for you and we will not stop," the message said.
The United States is now offering a $25 million reward for the capture or death of al-Zarqawi.
