#1 Interesting story and, as you point out, not a propaganda piece. I'm sure many would like to know more about how Sawt Jihad came by it, what it is supposed to be and to whom was it delivered and where are they? Obviously, this bit is tantalizing to WoT authorities.

Regardless, it is revealing assuming the translation did not take many liberties - an excellent find - Thx!

#2 This suprised me greatly. I didn't think such a well-educated man was running Al-Queada's operations. Ok, that didn't suprise me. What suprised me is that we missed him three times in one night.

#3 An Al-Qaida linked Web site had posted the grisly beheading of an American civilian. They stated that this was done in revenge for the abuse that prisoners at Abu Ghraib had endured yelling âAllahu Akbar!â --- âGod is great.â âFor the Mothers and wives of American soldiers, we tell you that we offered the U.S administration to exchange this hostage for some of the detainees in Abu Ghraib and they refused,â one of the men read from a statement.

âSo we tell you that the dignity of the Muslim men and women in Abu Ghraib and others is not redeemed except by blood and souls. You will not receive anything from us but coffins after coffins â¦ slaughtered in this way.â

If this is true then why havenât these so called men of Allahu turned on themselves revenge for the slaughter that they inflect on innocent men, women and children? They state that Americans and others like them are at fault for all of their troubles but do not want to point to themselves for their own failings. These so called righteous Muslims state that they are for all Muslims who are under the threat from outsiders but it is OK for those Muslims to kill, torture and inflect their own will and pain on Muslims. This all done in the name of Allahu!

Dignity, these men do not know what the word means. They twist ideas and the words of Allahu to suite their own purpose! They claim that others are responsible for the suffering of Muslims in the world but it is they who are destroying the dignity of Muslims. They are destroying the grace and dignity of Allahu!

Muqtada al-Sadr, the Shiite Holy Man who is accused of killing a moderate rival cleric why does he not come forward to claim his innocence? If he is not guilty then why does he hide behind his Al-Mahdi Army? Why is he fighting those forces in Iraq, these same forces who removed a tyrant and are attempting to bring about change to the people of Iraq? What does he truly want? Freedom! Freedom is not part of his vocabulary.

If he truly wanted freedom for the people of Iraq, where was he when Saddam was in power. Why was not his voice heard then? Why did he not insight the people of Iraq as he does now for the hundreds of thousands slaughtered by Saddam and his regime? Could it be that he was one of Saddam Husseinâs puppets and that he was receiving favors for looking the other way or could it be that He wants to be the one in power to force and inflict His will on the people of Iraq as Saddam had?

âI appeal to the fighters and mujahedeen in Karbala to stand together so as none of our holy sites and cities are defiled,â al-Sadr said at the Imam Ali shrine in Najaf, another holy city. Defiled, defiled by whom? He and those who blindly follow him are the ones who are defiling the Muslim holy sites and cities by bring weapons of hatred and destruction into those same holy sites and cities he claims to defend!

It is sad to see those who are prayed upon buy others, who force their will either by money, such as Osama, or by twisting the words of Allahu to suit their own needs instead of the needs of the people they are suppose to serve, causing the suffering of the innocent.

Rage continues to surge throughout the Arab world after the shocking photographs were published showing the abuse and humiliation at Abu Ghraib prison. Where was this rage when Saddam, his sons and others of his regime were detaining, torturing and murdering innocent individuals for their own sadistic pleasures? One can not believe that those in power of other Arab countries did not know what was happening, they could not be that blind!

Maybe it is time for the true people of Iraq, the true people of Islam, to stand up against those pretenders of the Muslim faith and say enough. They need to take back their faith and show the world what a true Muslim is, what Islam truly stands for! I donât believe that Allahu, in his infinite wisdom, would condone the torture and murder of men, women and children whoâs only concerns are to live in peace and the freedom to worship him the way that they want and believe. To do this is Freedom!

#4 Welcome Anonymous5236. I assume you are an Arab/Iraqi. While some here sound vitriolically anti-Arab, most would welcome a rational Arab voice (including me).
