Bill Gates, Microsoft Founder
There is fear in the air as Al-Qaeda has called for the execution of Bill Gates and other high-profile businessmen in a bid to damage the US economy.
The message was made public in its 'Inspire' magazine along with chilling mocked-up images of the Microsoft founder covered in blood.
The Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI) said it had obtained a copy of the magazine which provides detailed information on carrying out targeted assisnations.
It quotes Inspire editor Yahya Ibrahim as saying: "The prophet ordered the killing of many criminal leaders using this method... and here we are, following the footsteps of the prophet on how he dealt with his enemies and friends.
"We will never put down our weapons until we fulfil what Allah wants from us.
"We are determined to keep fighting and striking Americans with operations by organised jihadi groups and by Lone Jihad, (and) pursuing America in its homeland - by the will of Allah."
Also, the magazine urged its radical Islamic terrorists to emulate the Palestinian street-killings of Jews in America.
The publication is produced by al-Qaeda’s main affiliate, al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP), which is based in Yemen and says its priority is attacks on US soil.
