Terrorist group leader Osama Bin Laden is threatening a new anti-US strike in a message broadcast Sunday on the Qatar-based Al-Jazeera satellite TV channel.

According to the TV broadcast monitored here, the head of the terrorist al-Qaeda terror network delivered "fear of hearts" to Americans by pledging attacks on the sectors of the US economy.

The purpose is to terrify Americans out of their "injustice and hostility," said the mysterious voice supposed to be that of bin Laden.

The man has issued several similar threats on tape since the United States led the war in Afghanistan a year ago to oust the ruling Taliban, which provides shelter for bin Laden, suspected to be the mastermind of the Sept. 11 attacks in the United States.
