Document: al-Qaida Encourages Oil Attacks

Al-Qaida has encouraged its followers to attack oil pipelines and facilities in Muslim countries and tankers but not wells, according to a document posted on a Web site by the group that targeted the world’s largest oil-processing complex in Saudi Arabia.

The document was at least a year old, but al-Qaida’s branch in Saudi Arabia posted it earlier this week on an Islamic militant Web forum to show the religious justification for the Feb. 24 attempt to blow up the Abqaiq facility.
