CNN reporting that AlQuada says letter is a fake

[Perky]

(CNN) -- Al Qaeda in Iraq said Thursday a letter purportedly from Osama bin Laden's top lieutenant to Abu Musab al-Zarqawi is a fake, according to a statement on several Islamist Web sites.

The terrorist group denied the letter was from al Qaeda and claimed it was "another fabrication ... by the Black House," using its term for the White House.

CNN has not authenticated the statement, which was posted on several Web sites that often carry messages from al Qaeda in Iraq and was signed by Abu Maysara al-Iraqi, the man who acts as the group's spokesperson

4. I've been waiting for that. The timing and the way it propped up the prez

were seriously suspect. Won't be surprised if it turns out to be fake. Now if they could just trace it back to the WH.
