| Al-Qaeda calls for the assassination of Kuwaiti prince |
| 2005-04-15 |
| In a posting on an al-Qaeda affiliated message board, a member, incensed by the costs the Kuwaiti Ministry of Defense has undertaken to construct an American military base in Arifjan, south Kuwait "from which their convoys attack our brothers in Iraq" and providing services to American officers, advocates the assassination of Emir (Prince) Sabah al-Ahmad al-Jabir al-Sabah, and welcomes jihad in Kuwait. Expressing incredulity of the costs of the American base in Arifjan at "650 million Kuwait dinars" and the "sum of one and a half million dinars for services to the American army," the message vigorously asks "Allah to hit Sabah, the idiot, with 650 9mm bullets to his head." This particular message concluded with a prayer to "make me a martyr in the island of your Prophet," but in a reply to the posting, another member provides a map depicting "expressways which connect the different bases in order not to delay sending convoys to disgrace the Muslims of Iraq," seemingly advocating the jihad. |
