Al-Qaida Claims Bloody Algiers Bombings
Breitbart ^ | Dec 11, 2007 | AP

Posted on 12/11/2007 7:02:40 PM PST by RDTF

ALGIERS, Algeria (AP) - Two truck bombs set off in quick succession sheared off the fronts of U.N. offices and a government building in Algeria's capital Tuesday, killing at least 26 people and wounding nearly 200 in an attack claimed by an affiliate of al-Qaida.

Al-Qaida in Islamic North Africa, in a posting on a militant Web site, called the U.N. offices "the headquarters of the international infidels' den." A U.N. official said at least 11 of its employees died.

The bombs exploded 10 minutes apart around 9:30 a.m., devastating the U.N. refugee agency and other U.N. offices along a street in the upscale Hydra neighborhood, as well as Algeria's Constitutional Council, which rules on the constitutionality of laws and oversees elections.

The blasts, which came on the month's 11th day, a number rich in symbolism both for Algerians and for al-Qaida, drew swift international condemnation.

Latest report puts the death toll at 76.

This may be another attempt at spreading Jihad to all of Africa.

Gee, how many Jews and Christians do you think they managed to blow to hamburger in this last set of bombs?

AQ claims America hates Muslims.

Interesting that they are doing a better job killing Muslims than we, or even the Israelis, are doing.

Maybe we should send Bin Laden a thank-you note.

When I read something like this, I could almost believe in evolution. Most of us evolved into rational human beings, the rest took another evolutionary branch …

I keep reading about the continued disregard for human life the “Religion of Peace” takes and wonder what are the advantages in letting these animals live?

Al-Qaeda...who’s Al Kyda?

I thought it was a false-front created by Halliburton so
Halliburton could get contracts to support the armies
that attack them, and also get contracts to rebuild
what the armies have destroyed?

Why worry about them? We got bigger things to worry about,
like whether Britney Spears gets her act together, or
Lindsay Lohan is dating, or who wins the Super Bowl, BCS
championship, or Heisman, or what concert we can get tickets
to. Or what to buy at Starbucks.

Suppose they gave a Jihad and nobody came?

Run Paul can explain this one; he’s their self-appointed spokesman.

The radical loser (Long Read)
Der Spiegel ^ | 1/12/05 | Hans Magnus Enzensberger
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1694568/posts
(snip)

Contrary to what the West appears to believe, the destructive energy of Islamist actions is directed mainly against Muslims. This is not a tactical error, not a case of “collateral damage”. In Algeria alone, Islamist terror has cost the lives of at least 50,000 fellow Algerians. Other sources speak of as many as 150,000 murders, although the military and the secret services were also involved. In Iraq and Afghanistan, too, the number of Muslim victims far outstrips the death toll among foreigners. Furthermore, terrorism has been highly detrimental not only to the image of Islam but also to the living conditions of Muslims around the world.

The Islamists are as unconcerned about this as the Nazis were about the downfall of Germany. As the avant-garde of death, they have no regard for the lives of their fellow believers. In the eyes of the Islamists, the fact that most Muslims have no desire to blow themselves and others sky high only goes to show that they deserve no better than to be liquidated themselves. After all, the aim of the radical loser is to make as many other people into losers as possible. As the Islamists see it, the fact that they are in the minority can only be because they are the chosen few.
