05/10/2008: "Al-Qaeda wants to see the destruction of Iran"

Al-Qaeda's number two leader snubbed US Republican Senator John McCain for claiming that Iran is working with the terrorist organization.

During a new online Q&A session, Ayman al-Zawahiri said al-Qaeda wants to see the destruction of Iran - a Shiite nation battling the terrorists.

"We hope that war 'saps' both Washington and Tehran," he said according to a press tv report.

"The dispute between America and Iran is a genuine struggle, and the possibility of the US striking Iran is real," al-Zawahiri said.
