A new audio tape from Osama Bin Laden warning the American people over their government's close ties to Israel has been released, on Sunday 09/13/2009, by Al Qaeda's media branch, As-Sahab, according to a US-based terror monitoring group.

The video featuring a still image of Bin Laden and a 10 minute long audio statement entitled "A statement to the American people", said IntelCenter, a private media watch organization. The release came two days after the United States marked the eighth anniversary of The 9/11 attacks which killed nearly 3,000 people.

"The video shows a still of bin Laden while the audio statement plays. There is no video footage of bin Laden or of anything else, aside from the graphics surrounding his still," IntelCenter said.
