Osama bin Laden says al-Qaida will continue its holy war against Israel and its allies until it liberates Palestine.

The message from the fugitive terrorist popped up on the internet Friday as President Bush wrapped up his visit to Israel where he helped celebrate the Jewish state's 60th anniversary as a nation.

Bin Laden says the fight for the Palestinian cause is the most important factor driving al-Qaida's war with the West and is what fueled the Nine-Eleven attacks.

The nearly 10-minute message can't be authenticated but was posted on a Web site commonly used by al-Qaida.
