Musa Al-Qarni: "The concept of jihad is a matter of faith and Islamic religious law, which lives in the mind of every Muslim on the face of this earth. The religious education we receive through our schools, through our religious jurisprudence, our thinking, and our tradition - jihad is part of this."
Throwing acid in little girls' faces, strapping bombs on the backs of children, using women and children as human shields....that's jihad.
[...]
"When we used to read the books about the laws of jihad, the laws about raids, and the laws about prisoners - at a time when the nation was not in a state of jihad, but in a state of feebleness, apathy, and subordination - we used to think that reading the books on jihad was a kind of entertainment, and that jihad was a thing of the past. We used to study the laws of jihad as if it were an issue of history, not of reality."
if jihad is so important...then lead from the front, chief!
[...]
"Nobody even imagined that there could ever be jihad. Then the Islamic jihad in Afghanistan began. It began with the Russian attack on Afghanistan, the deportation of its people, the killing of its woman and children, the changing of its regime, the implementation of Communist ideology in it, the eradication of all the Islamic characteristics, even though, as everybody knows, Afghanistan is considered a very conservative country."
That's because you don't even know your own religious history. Jihad is invoked at least once every 100 years...and it leads to bloodshed and destruction until everyone that gives a flying flip is dead. Unfortunately that also always includes 1000s of innocents.
"This rise of Communism... In addition, the Arabian Peninsula - Saudi Arabia, the Gulf countries, etc. - was suffering, even before the jihad in Afghanistan, from the rise of Nasserism, which was supported by Russia. Everyone knows about the conflict in Yemen and elsewhere. People were completely driven to fight the Communist ideology.
Again...you do not even know your own history. Is it because you too are unable to read like the one-eyed mullah?
"Here in Saudi Arabia, we were fighting a cultural war against the heretic Communist ideology in our universities, our schools, and so on. When the jihad in Afghanistan began, the social and ideological background was ripe for the Saudi youth to go [to Afghanistan]..."
Dude...you must be on crack.
Interviewer: "There was incitement from the pulpits and in the universities in Saudi Arabia."
finish the thought..."to overthrow the royal kingdom so that the Wahabiests could control the flow of oil...turn the Magic Kingdom into their own fiefdom...and you clerics could hoard the oil billions for yourselves. It's all about the Benjamens."
Musa Al-Qarni: "Of course. At that time..."
Interviewer: "You reached Afghanistan during that period. The young men you met back then - how old were the people who went to join the Afghan mujahideen?"
HEY, I was just too old to put on a bomb belt...You know I had kids in the university...bills to pay...wives to keep happy. But the young ones...
Musa Al-Qarni: "Most of them were between 15 and 25 years old."
and I am not a child molester in spite of the pictures and evidence to the contrary.

"At no point in his life was Osama an ordinary man. That is something we must acknowledge."
Yes...your ordinary, spoiled rotten billionaire's son.

"He came from one of the richest families throughout the Gulf countries, a family known for its ties with the political regime here in Saudi Arabia, because of its construction projects and so on. In addition, he took with him [to Afghanistan] financial support. He brought his own money and the money of his family, and he also used his social influence here, as a preacher for jihad for the sake of Allah, to collect contributions. In addition, he had exceptional ties with the decision-makers, and with society as a whole here."
for the sake of alllan...he led 100s, no 1000s of muslims to their deaths.
Interviewer: "I am asking about Afghanistan."
Musa Al-Qarni: "He was prominent there."
[...]
"Here in Saudi Arabia, the young men who were about to go to Afghanistan, would undergo mental and psychological preparation. They would be included in a group of people who would go together.
and say, "I don't want to die. I don't want to die. I don't want to die. I don't want to die. I don't want to die. I don't want to die. I don't want to die. I don't want to die. I don't want to die."
"Let me give you an example. Now that jihad has become a 'crime,' some people may be surprised by what I am about to say: At the Jedda airport there was a group of mujahideen whose job was to welcome those who arrived on their way to Pakistan. There were also offices in Jedda that would buy discount tickets for the people going to Afghanistan."
note the keywords, "that would buy discount tickets for the people going to Afghanistan." That was not an inclusive buy. Funny how those that are so eager to push jihad are so anxious to provide a vehicle for those that actually do it.
[...]
"His ambition to wage jihad preceded the war in Afghanistan. I have mentioned this in the past. Even as a young man Osama bin Laden had the ambition to wage jihad. I have mentioned in several interviews, and it is a well known fact that when there were problems in Syria between the Syrian regime and the Muslim Brotherhood - and this was known throughout the world - Osama thought of going to Syria to join the jihad of the Muslims there. The spirit of jihad was deep in the soul of Osama bin Laden."
and note that OBL somehow missed the dirtnap in Syria. I guess his jihadi heart somehow protected him.

Interviewer: "You used to be his mufti, his advisor on Islamic law?"
Musa Al-Qarni: "Perhaps he considered me something of the sort, but I..."
Actually, I was his gay lover.
Interviewer: "Did the others also view you this way?"
No we were very discrete. We would take long rides out on the range with our horses and herd the sheep. It was the basis of the movie, "Brokeback Sand Dune."
skip a lot of dialogue to the end.
Interviewer: "Allah help us."
allan can't help you now. He skipped town and is at the Bellagio in Vegas to catch the Final Four on the Widescreens.
Musa bin Muhammad al-Qarni: "These are facts. Besides, there is a reality and we must be realistic. The infidels have invaded our countries. These occupying armies of the US and other countries have invaded the Land of the Islamic caliphate in Iraq. What did the Muslims do? Did they rush to the defense? The Prophet has noted that one of the seven major sins is fleeing on the day of invasion.
That explains why the majority of muslims are killed by other muslims.
"Today, invasion has reached Muslim countries everywhere. Palestine is lost.Uh, Palestine never was a country there bud. Before that, Andalusia was lost, and today Iraq is being lost, and maybe other countries will follow. Do we have the abilities to halt this invasion? Or are we those who flee on the day of invasion? We pray for Allah to protect us from this.
Amazingly, if you would at least join the 20th century, cease flying airplanes into skyscrapers, quit sending suicide bombers into crowded trains, buses, schools, and hotels..you'd be surprised how the infidels would treat you.
"Furthermore, look at how the media relate to those youth who felt a responsibility to Allah and rushed to Iraq to wage jihad there for the sake of Allah. What is our position toward them? What is the position of the media, the educators, the religious clerics, Muftis, the government officials, the politicians? What is their position toward these youth? Is it a position of help, support, aid, and reinforcement, or is it perhaps a position of abandonment, accusation of crime, and frustration?"
Like I said...allan fooled you. There are 1000s of Saudi young men who are rotting in the desert, whose mother's will never know how or where they died. And, you are still eating 3 squares, living the good life with your wives and kids, talking on TV about waging Jihad. You are pussy.
