Latest US warning from Al Qaeda

[CG63]

Fox News reports: "An Al Qaeda Web site is running a warning issued to Muslims to leave Washington, D.C., New York City and Los Angeles because of implied imminent terrorist attacks, according to the Middle East Media Research Institute.
Titled 'A Warning to Muslims in America,' the directive was issued by the previously unknown 'Islamic Bayan Movement' and first ran on the Global Islamic Media Web site on Monday, according to MEMRI, which translated the communiqué.
It has since been published on the Al Qaeda-run site Al Faroq, a MEMRI release said. The Global Islamic Media site has published several messages from Jihad groups around the world in recent months.
As of Tuesday, there had been no increase in the Pentagon's yellow terror alert status. Yellow represents an 'elevated' status on the five-point chart.
'Our Muslim brothers in America, we ask you to immediately leave the following cities: Washington, D.C., New York, and Los Angeles,' reads the communiqué, which frequently quotes the Quran.
'We are serious in our warning,' the message states. 'The next few days will prove to you the truth of this warning … To the oppressive rulers of America we say: Expect our terms following the first strike of Allah's believing soldiers [Quran, Chapter 59, Verse 2-3].'
The directive claims that U.S. soldiers stationed in Iraq and Afghanistan 'are the only ones who know the bitter truth' about the situation overseas.
'How would they not when they see every day dozens of casualties from among their friends, the soldiers who die and nobody, even not their stupid rulers, is sorry for them,' the communiqué states. 'Then they hear the lies and distortion their rulers [tell] their people and the peoples of the world regarding the number of their dead …'
The communiqué refers to the 'sufferings' of Muslims, saying they are victims of oppression, imprisonment and murder.
It ends with another verse from the Quran [Chapter 9, Verse 14]: 'Fight them: Allah will punish them at your hands, and will humiliate them, and will help you to overcome them, and will relieve the minds of the believers.'
In conjunction with the memo, Al Qaeda's Al Faroq posted a photo of the Chinook helicopter shot down on Sunday with a caption in Arabic that reads: 'We shall bring down and destroy the values of the Hubal of this generation.' Fifteen Americans died in the helicopter attack.
Hubal was a pre-Islamic-era Meccan idol used by Muslims to symbolize the U.S., according to MEMRI…"

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz :rolleyes:


heard it too many times before.
And seriously it gets me upset on how gulible the American public is.
Bottomline is that the U.S. Intelligence system messed up drastically on 9-11. Its their fault for not uncovering the terroists' plans and to really think that Al Qaeda or any other terrorist groupd to strike on the U.S. and announce it is as valid as George bush's presidential win in Florida.

DONT BELIEVE THE HYPE!
#1 If we are to ever get hit again here in the states it will be when we least expect it, read your history.
#2 Quit beleiving in these Hollywood movies and understand REAL LIFE, its hard for these guys to actually do something so spectacular right now in U.S. soil

The borders are as lax as ever.
Airline security is somewhat tighter, yet only a few weeks back the feds managed to sneak weapons of all sorts on to planes, so not much has really changed even there.

To quote Noam Chomsky, if terrorists ever wanted to sneak a small nuclear bomb in to the country, all they'd have to do is hide it inside a bale of marijuana.

How considerate of these nut jobs to give their fellow muslims a "warning", I always thought they didn't give a shit who they killed...

138: cause its in the style of Al Qaeda to do something as grand as crash into the World Trade Center buildings. It was a huge symbol of American power. Remember that in Afganistan in 2000 they destroyed these ancinet Budda statues. The intellectual community pleaded with them not to take it down but these statues symbolized tolereance and a different religious view. For them it had to go down and this should have been a warning for us.

I'm not saying a terrorist attack wont happen again all I'm pointing out is that all these "threats" keep popping out and yet nothing happens, I strongly believe the government is just jerking us about so they can maintain strict power over its citizens. There will always be groups that hate and want to destroy the U.S. but Al Qaeda's record show that they do things on a sneak tip but grand in symbolic fashion. ;)


oh and about the sneaking into the border, thats inevitable but to sneak in with nuclear capabilities....doubt it. If the radical Islamic groups from Chechneya havnet blown up Moscow with nuclear devices (I say Russia because it is apparently the easiest place to get it from that huge USSR armament) then they cant do it here with every American looking suspiciously at every Arabic looking person entering the U.S. and some word of nuclear devices being bought somewhere.
Shit I'm contradicting myself!
The U.S. Intelligence community would f that up too! :rolleyes:
