America, Fasten Your Seat Belt!
Osama bin Laden's al-Qaeda movement will strike again against the United States and with at least the same force as on Sept 11, according to a spokesman quoted by a Sunday newspaper. Al-Qaeda "will continue to work to strike against the United States", the network's spokesman Suleiman Abu Ghaith vowed in an article published on an Islamic website, Al-Hayat daily said.
I love it when this ex-Kuwaiti, who'd now be sitting around his new home in the salt flats around Basra reading a romance novel if it weren't for us, jumps up and down and threatens dire retribution on the U.S.A. It reminds me that there's no word for "gratitude" in Arabic. It does say in the DIA Factbook on al-Qaeda somewhere that it's the Fourth Loudest Army in the World. You could look it up.
The site, alneda.com, or "the call" in Arabic, could not be opened Sunday, but it regularly publishes views considered to be those of al-Qaeda. The group "will continue to work to strike against Americans and Jews and to target them, be it individuals or infrastructure."
C'mon, politically correct chorus of professionally indignant leftists! Let's hear an outcry against al-Qaeda and Arab racism! (Is that... silence?)
"What is in waiting for the Americans will not be inferior to what the US has already gone through," Abu Ghaith said. "Let America be prepared to fasten its seat belt because, thanks to God, we are going to surprise it in a place where it is not expecting."
No doubt they intend to do just that. Probably they'll succeed, perhaps as well as last time. That's because giants have a hard time relating to pygmies — my apologies in this case to pygmies. When it succeeded last time, we dismantled the terror state in Afghanistan, killed Mohammad Atef, captured Abu Zubaydah, wiped out Zawahiri's family, and knocked off Namangani. When our guys got tired of shooting them, they shot each other. After the siege of Konduz our side packed the Islamic heros into shipping containers and let them blow themselves up if they pleased. Maybe next time Suleiman can be toast, too.
The spokesman, who claimed responsibility in April for the September suicide hijackings, said the United States was targeted "because of what it does in the Islamic world and because, along with the Jews, it is the head of corruption and decadence and the reason for the injustice and persecution from which Muslims suffer."
In this world it's a truism that only Muslims suffer, and no Muslim suffers because of what he does, only because of what others do. We're dealing with the retarded. We shouldn't jug them; the ones we don't kill we should put in institutions, where they could cut out paper guns when they're not sedated.
