File under: al-Qaeda

#1 Tell you the main reason: THis was AlQaeda's final Koranic warning: convert or die. Islam requires that the offer be made, the invitation to conversion be extended. If it is rejected then we are infidels and kheffirs, and are fair game - we must be either subjugated or killed by the word of the Prophet.

That is why this is an important video: he is doing what is required by the Koran before striking.

#2 I think that 'another strike' would mean that the gloves come off, quite what happens after that is anyones guess.

*snort*

I'll believe that when I see it. In all likelihood, another strike means the blind won't be able to find cabs, and Porky Pig will be banned from the airwaves.

#4 I share OldSpook's concern. Given what little I know of the the koran, one thing has always stuck with me. Per koranic ROEs, the offer to convert or die generally precedes any major effort to wage war on the infidels and kheffirs.

Make of that what you will.

#5 I'd call it the beginning of the end game.

#6 I don't know what the disarmed Euros plan to do, but here in the Land of the Second Amendment™....

And I won't even feel bad about it.

#7 If it is a pre-attack announcement, and if the Islamofascists do manage to pull one off, then there will surely be hell to pay - AFTER they or their allies kill off the soft underbelly of the west and the USA and the rest of us stand up and start fighting back with all the ruthless fierocity such a war deserves.

(And before the mods come down on me, I am NOT advocating the killing of any of my fellow westerner's or Americans- just saying that the ones who are going to bleed (and whine) the most are the same ones who are most likely to die first).

Defend yourselves - and be prepared to defend yourselves and your families and friends.

#8 If I had time for Moslem crap, I would be knee deep in it.

If I had politicos that really do not give a damn, I would say we are in Rome. EDOM.
