Al-Zarqawi Denounces Iraq Army As Enemies (Good News!!)
2005-07-06
The reputed leader of al-Qaida in Iraq said the Iraqi army is as great an enemy as the Americans and announced the formation of a new terror command to fight Iraq's biggest Shiite militia, in an audiotape found Wednesday on the Internet.
This is good news. Z-man now has officialy thrown down the foreigner-sunni gauntlet against the shias. Now if we can only get him to pop that fat poser Sadr...
The comments, purportedly from Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, appeared aimed at discouraging armed Iraqi groups from entering talks with the Iraqi government. The tape challenged critics who maintain that fighting U.S. troops is legitimate, but who oppose attacks on Iraqi forces.
Yup..that's gonna scare them off. Specially after Z-man and his butt-buddies have smoked hundreds of Shia women, children, and mullahs.
"Some say that the resistance is divided into two groups — an honorable resistance that fights the nonbeliever-occupier and a dishonorable resistance that fights Iraqis," the speaker said. "We announce that the Iraqi army is an army of apostates and mercenaries that has allied itself with the Crusaders and came to destroy Islam and fight Muslims. We will fight it."
Oh, now he is a mullah. Another fathead issuing a fatwah.
That's a Wahhabi thing. If somebody doesn't agree with you, he must be an apostate, so you have to kill him, and probably his family and his dog, too. He has put his finger on the difference between guerrillas and terrorists, though, even though he denies the distinction. When there's an accomodation eventually reached with the Iraqi bad guyz, it'll be with the guerrillas, not with the terrs. They have to be hunted down and killed, though we'll probably content ourselves with hunting them down and arresting them because we're scared of HRW and Amnesia International...
The speaker tacitly acknowledged pressure to abandon the struggle against the Americans and their Iraqi allies, saying he was "saddened and burdened" by people "advising me not to persist in fighting in Iraq."
Z-man must be reading the Russian version of "Winning the Hearts and Minds." Or smoking to much weed.
"I weep for you, the Walrus said,
I deeply sympathize..."
He also said the Americans began speaking of negotiations to end the conflict after al-Qaida had "humiliated" U.S. forces on the battlefield.
Oh that's the reason Z-man is kidnapping and chaining "suicide" bombers into vehicles and threatening to kill relatives. You islamo-pussy!
It was impossible to determine whether the speaker was al-Zarqawi, although the voice sounded like ones on tapes U.S. officials have acknowledged were made by the Jordanian-born terror mastermind. It could also not be determined when the speech was delivered, although the speaker refers to code names for U.S. military operations launched in recent weeks. Al-Zarqawi's attacks against Iraqi Shiites, who comprise an estimated 60 percent of the country's 26 million people, have raised fears that this nation could descend into civil war.
If the Sunnis and baathists had any sense...they would use this as an oportunity to distance themselves fro Z-man...and out them.
But they don't, so they won't — for another year or two...
Another Web statement purportedly by Al-Qaida in Iraq claimed responsibility for the Saturday kidnapping of Egyptian diplomat Ihad al-Sherif — a move Iraqi officials believe was aimed at undercutting Arab and Muslim diplomatic support for the U.S.-backed government.
Desperation setting in. Now they are left to kidnapping and killing diplomats. I guess women and children are too tough for these "warriors of allan."

#6  Sounds like your typical jihadists. Notice that they are switching form soft target to political. I don't think killing an Iranian diplomat will win you too many converts. I can't wait to see them pull this piece of dung out of a rat hole al-la Saddam.

#5  Anymouse: "Now if we can only get him to pop that fat poser Sadr..."

Ask and ye shall receive: The speaker said al-Qaeda in Iraq would soon unveil a new unit, the Omar Corps, to "eradicate" the Badr Brigade, a militia of the country's biggest Shi'ite party, the Supreme Council for the Islamic Revolution in Iraq.

Yee-haw! Go for it, Zak-baby. :-D

Let's see, we have taken somewhere around 1,700 american deaths, the U.S. Forces have scored way over 100,000 KIA's since the beginning of the invasion. Who really won in that 9/11 attack? Who has suffered the real loss in the subsequent war on terror? These asshats have gotten more arabs killed than they realize, my only question is when are the arabs going to figure this out?
They just don't seem to get it, you fuck with us you die.

#2  The speaker tacitly acknowledged pressure to abandon the struggle against the Americans and their Iraqi allies, saying he was "saddened and burdened" by people "advising me not to persist in fighting in Iraq."

He was probably referring to this:

From his cell in Jordan al-Barqawi wrote to al-Zarqawi in a message posted on the Internet in October asking al-Zarqawi to "spare the blood of fighters and Muslim money" until the time was more appropriate to wage an all-out war.

Way to go, I approve, keep it up you'll be dead sooner.
