THE al-Qaeda master plan to take over the world and turn it into an Islamic state has been revealed for the first time.
For a new book, Jordanian journalist Fouad Hussein interviewed top lieutenants of the terrorist network, including the mastermind of many atrocities in Iraq, Abu Musab al-Zarqawi.
Al-Zarqawi al-Qaeda's Second Generation is published only in Arabic, but could be translated into English.
Hussein says al-Qaeda views its struggle as a long-term war with seven distinct phases.
Phase one is the "awakening" in the consciousness of Muslims worldwide following the September 11, 2001, suicide attacks. The aim of the attacks was to provoke the US into declaring war on the Islamic world and thereby mobilising the radicals.
Phase two is "Opening Eyes", the period we are now in and which should last until 2006. Hussein says the terrorists hope to make the "Western conspiracy" aware of the "Islamic community" as al-Qaeda continues to mould its secret battalions ready for battle.
Phase three, "Arising and Standing Up", should last from 2007 to 2010, with increasingly frequent attacks against secular Turkey and arch-enemy Israel.
Phase four, between 2010 and 2013, will see the downfall of hated Arab regimes, including Saudi Arabia and Jordan. Oil suppliers will be attacked and the US economy will be targeted using cyber terrorism.
Phase five will be the point at which an Islamic state, or caliphate, can be declared between 2013 and 2016.
Phase six, from 2016 on, will be a period of "total confrontation". As soon as the caliphate has been declared, the "Islamic army" will instigate the "fight between the believers and the non-believers" that has so often been predicted by al-Qaeda's leader, Osama bin Laden.
Phase seven, the final stage, is described as "definitive victory".
Hussein writes that in the terrorists' eyes, because the rest of the world will be so beaten down by the "One-and-a-half billion Muslims", the caliphate will undoubtedly succeed. This phase should be completed by 2020, although the war should not last longer than two years.
the mother ship lands and calypso louie and the brotherhood are spirited away.
So I guess that means that we should definately quit now and go buy our burkas.
Yeah, well there's a few ahead of your smelly arses
Very ambitious, aren't they!
How do we know Fouad really interviewed these guys? Maybe it's a work of fiction?
That begs the question... If Osama is so tall, how tall is his miniature evil clone?
If we did give up,
then we could take advantage
of all the options
that insurgents have!
Let Muslims to the grunt work,
then we could steal it . . .
Somebody ping Cindy Sheehan on this one.
I love it when a good plan comes.....apart.
See post # 3 ~ good chance for some sales. ;)
Don't we already have it?
This should be required reading in all public schools. For the teachers, that is.
Phase 8: The Islamic Caliphate is turned into a sea of radioactive glass.
Places like france well maybe, but you ain't pushing islam to the majority of those in say Iowa and Indiana.
Phase 6.5 - The countries used as bases by the whacked-out islamodudes are smoking ruins. The U.S. is roundly criticized by Europe, whose butts we have rescued from occupation yet again, and we now own 85% of the oil wells in the world.
