CIA 'can't rule out al-Qaeda role in Thaksin video'

The United States' Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), asked by Thai intelligence officials to help verify the YouTube video containing a threat to kill former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra, has not ruled out the involvement of al-Qaeda, a Thai intelligence source said.
CIA officials have speculated the people who produced the video were amateurs. Three languages were used in it - Arabic; Urdu, an official language of Pakistan; and English - but the CIA believes the English part was voiced-over, according to the source, who asked not to be named.
While the CIA has not given much weight to the theory that the men appearing in the clip were themselves al-Qaeda members, since no symbols of the terrorist group appear in the video, the agency has not yet ruled out the possibility that the clip was made by al-Qaeda. If that were the case, it would be the first time the group had involved itself in issues relating to the unrest in the deep South, the Thai intelligence official said.
"Al-Qaeda has not yet come out to deny it was responsible for making the clip, so we have to be pessimistic by not ruling out the possibility, and cannot be careless," he said.
No link of any kind had been found with Malaysian politics, he added.
Pol Maj General Pisit Paoin, commander of the Technology Crime Suppression Division, said his office does not have specialists to verify if the clip was the work of an international terrorist organisation like al-Qaeda, and needed help from foreign nations.
A source in the Internal Security Operations Command (ISOC) Region 4 Front said the man who revealed his face in the clip looked similar to a suspect facing arrest warrants on security charges stemming from incidents in 2004-2006. Since the Muslim separatist insurgency escalated in the deep South nine years ago, there have never been any foreigners involved. All accused separatists have Thai ID cards, he said.
Intelligence official and former Southern Special Operations Centre chief Lt-General Nanthadej Meksawat - who served as leader of the team that arrested Riduan Isamuddin (Hambali), a member of the Indonesian terrorist organisation Jemaah Islamiyah (JI) - believes the video definitely involved Malaysians. He said it could be the work of a group opposing the ongoing peace dialogue, or an anti-Malaysian government group. "The peace dialogue has upgraded and popularised the Barisan Revolusi Nasional [
BRN], and this would upset other groups who oppose the peace deal, or those who dislike the
BRN," Nanthadej said.
"The Malaysian government strongly backs the peace negotiations, and the Thai former prime minister [Thaksin] has also voiced support for the Malaysian government, thus a link with Malaysia in some aspect is possible [assuming the threat made in the video is genuine]," he said.
Nanthadej dismissed reports the group responsible for the clip was a local anti-government group. "Thai politics had never [been involved with such] things and the man who claimed to be al-Qaeda revealed his face. Who would dare to do that?" he said.
