Update at 8:55 a.m. ET: The statement
<http://abcnews.go.com/International/wireStory?id=13543439> , dated May 3,
was the first by the terror network since bin Laden was killed by U.S.
commandos in a raid on his hideout in Abbottabad, Pakistan. The Associated
Press says the statement's authenticity could not be independently
confirmed, but it was posted on websites where the group traditionally puts
out its messages.

It also says that an audio message bin Laden recorded a week before his
death would be issued soon.

"We stress that the blood of the holy warrior sheik, Osama bin Laden, God
bless him, is precious to us and to all Muslims and will no go in vain," the
statement says. "We will remain, God willing, a curse chasing the Americans
and their agents, following them outside and inside their countries."

"Soon, God willing, their happiness will turn to sadness," it says, "their
blood will be mingled with their tears."

In the statement, al-Qaeda also calls on the people of Pakistan - "where
Sheik Osama was killed" - to rise up in revolt against its leaders. It also
says that an audio message bin Laden recorded a week before his death would
be issued soon.
