CAIRO — Al-Qaida on Friday confirmed the killing of Osama bin Laden and warned of retaliation, saying Americans' "happiness will turn to sadness."
The confirmation came in an Internet statement posted on militant websites, signed by "the general leadership" of al-Qaida. The announcement opens the way for the group to name a successor to bin Laden. His deputy Ayman al-Zawahri is now the most prominent figure in the group and is a very likely contender to take his place.
The statement, dated May 3, was the first by the terror network since bin Laden was killed Monday by U.S. commandos in a raid on his hideout in Abbottabad, Pakistan. The statement's authenticity could not be independently confirmed, but it was posted on websites where the group traditionally puts out its messages.
"The blood of the holy warrior sheik, Osama bin Laden, ? bless him, is too precious to us and to all Muslims to go in vain," the statement said. "We will remain, ? willing, a curse chasing the Americans and their agents, following them outside and inside their countries."
"Soon, ? willing, their happiness will turn to sadness," it said, "their blood will be mingled with their tears."
There was no indication how the group will retaliate. Rather than making vehement cries of vengeance, the statement – entitled "You lived as a good man, you died as a martyr" – struck a tone of calmness and continuation. Though it included praise of bin Laden, much of the 11-paragraph statement was dedicated to underlining that al-Qaida would live on, depicting him as just another in a line of "martyrs" from the group.
"It is impossible, impossible. Sheik Osama didn't build an organization to die when he dies," the statement read. "The university of faith, Quran and jihad from which bin Laden graduated will not close its doors," it added.
"The soldiers of Islam will continue in groups and united, plotting and planning without getting bored, tired, with determination, without giving up until striking a blow," the statement.
It said bin Laden was killed "along an established path followed by the best of those who came before him and those who will come after him."
In the statement, al-Qaida also called on Pakistanis to rise up in revolt against its leaders to "cleanse the shame." It also said that an audio message bin Laden recorded a week before his death would be issued soon.
The writers of the statement appeared unaware of the announcement by American officials that bin Laden's body had been buried at sea. The statement warned against mishandling or mistreating bin Laden's body and demanded that be handed over to his family, saying "any harm (to the body) will open more doors of evil, and there will be no one to blame but yourselves."

They're now threatening us, big deal, they do that all the time. It's not anything to say OH ? about, when bin Laden ran ? there was tons of plans to attack us and always will be even after his death.
They just supposedly "foiled" a plan that was supposed to come this September from files/evidence found at bin Ladens house.
BUT this doesn't put theories to rest, they always find a way to intertwine it all. -
In before the "al-qaida is in on the conspiracy too"

clearly Al Qaida (if this statement is from Al Qaida) is not with it....they clearly dont have reliable communications and sources of information..lol for Al Quaida having no TV nor cellphones but posting on websites. -
"An acknowledgment from al-Qaeda could quell skepticism fueled by a lack of publicly accessible evidence that bin Laden was killed..."
what a coincidence this just coming out..Al Quida is helping to quash the doubt that OBL is dead. Very cooperative of Al Quida. -
Al-Qaeda sure is hell-bent on enacting violence on Americans for whatever reason; something like a deep rooted generational hate for America.
