TTP Leader Hakimullah Mehsud Declares: 'From Now On, the Main Targets of Our Fidaeen [Suicide Bombers] Are American Cities'

The first, which the YouTube page titled "Hakeemullah Mehsud is Alive and Healthy and Delivering news about Attacks on USA," is 2:17 long, and shows a still satellite image of North America with a still image of Hakimullah Mehsud. Speaking in Urdu, he states that the date is April 19, 2010 and threatens bombings in U.S. "states & cities"; as he speaks, explosions are shown taking place across the map.

Cantessa Brewer is reportedly inconsolable that it was a Muslim that made these remarks and not a “Teabagger”.

Whatever. They’ve always been the “main targets”. What this tells us is that we are clobbering them in their nest and they are desperate for a break out.

The real question is will Obama press the attacks or withdraw and expose America to Islamist terrorism?

[Psalm 73]

"I don't think it would be successful in most cases."

I was thinking more in terms of Islamo-facists declaring open war on the American populace.
That is what I assumed would be next after 9-11, but it never materialized - and it's not like there aren't enough of them or that they can't get into the US......

Seriously, the complete destruction by nuclear bomb of Mecca may be just the thing to destroy Islam.

After all, Muslims believe nothing happens without being the “Will of Allah” therefore, if Mecca were to disappear in a mushroom cloud one fine morning, it could only be because Allah willed that Islam and a belief in Allah disappear from the face of the earth.

We do know that the A-Bomb ended the Japanese belief in the Emperor as the living god of Shinto, thus the H-Bomb could end the belief of billions in the myth of Allah.

Any Haji tries that sh-t near me,he will find out the hard way that not everyone needs a firearm to hurt or cripple someone for life.

As appealing as your suggestion is, it probably wouldn’t work.

With a nuke, it’s clean, easy to target, and if fired from a boomer at sufficient distance, there’s no way to retaliate since the launching sub could ‘shoot & scoot’. Besides, there are three or four nations that the world KNOWS has a sub-based nuke capability. So unless you actually SAW the missile when it launched to ID the country that built or launched it, you really don’t know who did, so who could you blame? Not only that, but you’ll have NO chance of shooting down the incoming RV and NO chance of evacuating the city.

(I know...there EXISTS a capability to possibly terminate an inbound warhead, but there’s only TWO countries I know of who have that capability: US and Israel. Ergo, the Kingdom is SOL.)

The problem with conventional bombing is that you’d have to launch a rather LARGE bomber force to adequately destroy the city, not to mention the Grand Mosque itself. What do you think the Kingdom’s response is going to be when their radar spots a massive bomber force headed their way? They’ll launch every F-15 (which WE sold them) they have to intercept. A potentially large loss of our forces could occur. Also, there would be time to evacuate at least the central area of Mecca before the bomber force arrived.

You forgot to add ‘Muslim’, because he sure isn’t Christian.

I don't know if you ever saw "The Chronicles of Riddick", but it holds the answer as to why your suggestion of nuking Mecca probably wouldn't work.

The film is set in the far future. Mankind has colonized the stars. On one planet one of the people who helps Riddick is a Muslim. In part of the dialog, the Muslim explains why there still IS an Islam. Supposedly, someone DID nuke Mecca in the past. The Muslim explains that when the mushroom cloud rose into the sky, "the ashes of Mecca were now carried around the whole earth, so now the whole Earth is considered a holy place".

Those who practice Islam, loony as they are, would find a way to justify the continued existence of Islam, despite the loss of their holiest city and center of worship.

So now we're paying the Taliban to "reintegrate" with the Afghanistan government?

[stevie_d_64]

And newsworthy...Thats what the state run media wants to see...And show to the unwashed masses...

[Mariner]

There's only one solution.

We must kill all of them.

"Actually, there are some terrorist elements that are counting on an “open season” on muslims in the US. Beck has previously discussed “The Perfect Day” (as they called it) scenario planned by terrorists involving Beslan style attacks on American schools. Part of their goal was to cause such anger in the general public, there would be raging mobs dragging muslims through the streets. This (in their view) would be broadcast across the globe and incite muslims worldwide to join a massive jihad to destroy the US once and for all."

If they pull a Beslan type attack on this country...inciting moms nationwide (the ONLY counter-balance to unrestrained, murderous war in the US), they'll get what they asked for, and more.

BUMP what you said.
How ironic is it that the enemies of America plan to target the same Democrat parasite nests (”cities”) that elected Ubama?

[Americanexpat]

I think you can pretty much count on it.

[Rastus]

Would it make you feel any better if I had said a daisy cutter? I’m open to changing the weapon in question. :-D

[worst-case scenario]

Same way people in British cities responded when the IRA began blowing up themselves and others - fury.

[worst-case scenario]

Then perhaps Conservatives won’t mind a few attacks that empty the cities of “Democrat parasite nests.”

[Purrcival]

Somehow, it will still be “Bush’s fault”.

[Niuhuru]

“Wonder how folks in New York, Chicago, Atlanta, Richmond or Macon georgia will react once buses, pizza parlors, movie theaters and shopping malls begin blowing up Israeli style?”

Either that or LA for that matter.

“I’ve got a fair idea about how folks will react here in Oz once it starts happening here and it won’t be pretty.”

Well, if the complacency has to be shaken, then let it be that way. Once places start blowing up, the citizenry will be able to take charge and tell the Feds to shove it if the government encourages the citizens to let the government deal with it.

Chances are though, if a couple schools are blown up by muzzies, the police will actually encourage the citizenry to take control, (aka blow the maggots to smithereens). And the citizenry will.

Or if they pull a Beslan style hostage takeover with kindergartners, it’ll be an all out genocide against Muslims in this country. And of course a few choice politicos will be strung up for not preventing it. Especially if they snuck in through the borders.

Obama hasn’t apologized for Bush enough apparently yet ...
