A longtime deputy of Osama bin Laden warns that Muslims will destroy the U.S. in a 28-minute videotaped eulogy for the slain Al-Qaida leader, reports the Daily Telegraph (U.K.).

Ayman al-Zawahri says the United States buried bin Laden at sea and withheld photographs of his corpse out of fear.

The video was widely reported on Wednesday.
