#2 
a one-week ultimatum to withdraw its troops from Muslim bases

Notice that they didn't refer to Iraq and Afghanistan as Muslim counties, but rather as Muslim bases.

#8 From a complete translation by John at Iberian Notes [hattip, Tim Blair]:
"... brigade located in Al-Andalus has decided not to leave here until your troops leave their Muslim bases immediately and unconditionally. If you do not do so within a week from today, we will continue our jihad until martyrdom in the land of Tarek Ben Ziyad."
And who is Tarek Ben Ziyad? In this comment "Pep" explains:
" The terrorists are referring to Tariq Ben Ziyad, who defeated the last Goth King in Spain in year 711 in the battle of Guadalete, after crossing the Strait of Gibraltar. His victory was the starting point of the muslim invasion of the Iberian Peninsula which would last 7 centuries, until in 1492 the Catholic Kings captured the last stronghold of the muslims, Granada..."

Not too far wrong, raptor!
