Jihad Unspun: Tape To Bin Laden Indicates New Battle Plans Are Forthcoming
A new 20 minute audio tape was released yesterday by the leader of Al-Qaeda in Iraq, Sheikh Abu Musab al-Zarqawi to Sheikh Osama Bin Laden, informing the head of al-Qaeda's global operations of several important issues. The message indicates that the audio tape has been sent directly from one of the many battlefields inside Iraq.

In this latest message, Zarqawi confirms that plans to break the back of the cross worshippers are going well and the enemies are dong exactly what the Mujahideen want them to do. He further refers to a report that has been sent to Shiekh bin Laden and advises they are waiting further instructions, indicating that something major may be in the works, clarifies his battlefield injuries and advises his Amir that he continues to direct engagements inside Iraq on the front lines.

Zarqawi begins his statement by saying addressing Sheikh Osama bin Laden;

"From a soldier standing at the front line to his Amir (commander)"

He then goes on to dispel the myth that he has suffered serious injuries or has been killed, that even now some mainstream new agencies continue to report .

"My beloved Amir, various news agencies have been spreading false rumors about my being seriously wounded and receiving treatment at Ramadi hospital. The truth is what our media department announced; I was lightly wounded. However, I am well and I continue to direct all of our operations from the front lines from many locations in the land of the two rivers."

Zarqawi confirms that the battles are going according to plans are going well and states he is awaiting instructions from Shiekh bin laden, indicating that a plan is in the works.

"My beloved Amir, things could not have been better, the enemies of Allah are doing exactly what we want them to do. Things are going according to plans. I trust that details of our operations are either in your hand by now or on their way to you. My beloved Amir, your young soldier here (Zarqawi) awaits your orders."

Zarqawi also enjoins the success of the Battle of Qaim in this new tape, where US soldiers and their collaborators paid a hefty price and were eventually forced to retreat.

"My beloved Amir, the US Marines have suffered the most disgraceful defeat at the hands of your soldiers, the soldiers of Allah, in Al-Qaim. The 10 day Battle of Qaim will go into history as one of the greatest Islamic battles. After ten days of fierce fighting, the US marines had to abandon their equipment, their dead, and had to withdraw from the battlefield, licking their wounds in total disgrace.

My beloved Amir, the American commander of US forces in Qaim, General Drink Wine (a slight on the pagan General) had arrogantly said "We will defeat them (Mujahideen) even if Muhammad and Muhammad's God were both with them". We were pleased to hear him saying that because we knew that Allah will disgrace him and will give us victory over him.

General Drink Wine could not stand the intense fire power of the Mujahideen on the ground, so he took to the skies in a helicopter thinking that he would be safe, but Allah guided the shots from one Mujahid that hit the General's helicopter. The aircraft went down in flames, and so did he. "

What is most notable in this new tape is that Zarqawi speaking with a new level of assurance about the progress being made against the Iraqi occupiers. While the true number of American casualties continue to be swept under the carpet, it appears by all counts, including daily reports, that the Mujahideen now united under Zarqawi's central command are gaining significant ground, progressing exactly as planned and that a further strategies are in the works. We are endeavoring to bring you the complete translation of this tape within the next few days, inshaAllah. For our Arabic viewers, the complete uncensored audio tape is available under our uncensored news section.
