Al Qaeda vows to target more foreign diplomats in Iraq
2005-07-29
DUBAI - The group of Al Qaeda’s Iraq frontman Abu Musab Al Zarqawi on Thursday vowed to target more foreign envoys and denounced “infidel” leaders who condemned the execution of two Algerian diplomats, an Internet statement said. “We are approaching God Almighty with the sanctions (executions) and by implementing the Sharia (Islamic law)... Our religion orders us to kill the apostates and the infidels,” said the group in a statement whose authenticity could not be verified.
At some point foreign countries are going to understand just what it means to be passive in the face of terrorist scumbags killing their diplomats. But we haven't reached that point, have we.
“The bullets of right do not stop at anything wrong, but pierce it and kill it, and this is the fate of anyone who follows the Jews and the Christians.”

Zarqawi’s group said in an Internet statement on Wednesday that it had executed the head of Algiers’ diplomatic mission in Baghdad, Ali Belaroussi, 47, and attache Azzedine Belkadi, 47, who were kidnapped last week. Without mentioning him by name, the group particularly lashed out at Algerian President Abdelaziz Bouteflika who had condemned the murders of his two diplomats. “Shut up you evil-sayer who has blood, a blood that is pure, on your hands,” said the statement, in an apparent reference to a crackdown on Islamists by Algerian authorities.
I think this is all Bouteflika needs to cancel the ceasefire with the GPSC. And buy some good US/UK arms on good terms. And use them against the terrorists in Algeria.
The statement said “thousands of bombs prohibited by the charter of the infidel United Nations are falling on Muslims in Iraq and Afghanistan... and we never heard the denunciations of Algeria, the Arab tyrants or the atheist United Nations.”

The group also blasted Iraqi authorities for pledging to protect foreign diplomats in the troubled country. “The one who is saying that he will protect the diplomats is a liar because in the Land of the Two Rivers (Iraq) there is no security for the enemies of God,” it said.

#1  And these "people" should have full rights and protection under the Geneva convention? Maybe Senators Durbin and Kennedy would volunteer as US envoys to Iraq.
