A new message was posted in the last few hours by the Jeddah-based al-Qaeda-linked Al-Islah (Reform) society calling on Muslims to flee New York, Washington and Los Angeles in advance of major al Qaeda attacks in those cities. This is revealed by DEBKAfile.
The message accuses the United States of predetermining its end (doom) by its policies. ?The Jews rule the Pentagon by remote control and (are the cause) of Muslims being killed in every corner of the world. The United States should therefore expect more blows.?
The message is signed on behalf of the al Bayan (The Threat) movement by ?your warrior brother, Abul Hassan al Khadrami?.
Our Muslim expert identifies the name of the signatory as belonging to a Yemeni from Hadhrameuth, the Bin Ladens? place of origin where Osama enjoys substantial tribal support.
DEBKAfile?s counter-terror sources stress that warnings appearing on these forums are taken both very seriously and with caution by the intelligence services keeping track of the terrorist network?s electronic traffic.
Last November, Jeddah-based fundamentalist forums addressed a message to an Al Qaeda member, saying whoever understands ? understands; whoever knows, knows, but we are marching towards an operation that will take us to Paradise. Three days later, the Mombasa Paradise hotel was blown up killing 12 Kenyans and 3 Israelis and a failed shoulder-launched Strela anti-air missile missed an Israeli airliner at Mombasa airport.
As Joseph Farah's G2 Bulletin reported in June, Saudi Arabia is among a growing list of nations that could pose a nuclear threat to the United States. Like Egypt, it has missiles and a large army and is a candidate for an Islamic revolution similar to Iran's 1979 conflict that overnight turned the country from being a stable U.S. ally to a vicious enemy.
Geostrategy reported in June that the Saudi royal family has become alarmed by the prospect of its neighbors having a nuclear bomb and has been secretly obtaining help from Pakistan for its missile and nuclear program. Riyadh helped finance Pakistan's nuclear program precisely to ensure that the royal family will have a bomb in case of an emergency, Geostrategy said.
The goal of most of the Arab states is and has been for many years to acquire nuclear weapons. They feel that Israel has them, so should they.
The Saudis have lots of money. Countries like North Korea need money. They have technology and weapons to sell. The Islamists hate us. Those weapons can kill us.
Has the CIA JUST figured out we have a problem over there.
Only You, O God, know the truth of rumors, but may even the least bit of suspicion be followed to conclusion, and always, Merciful Father, we pray that none of this leads to the shedding of innocent blood. Keep us alert to danger ... here and on foreign soil ... send the volumes of intelligence to just the right people at just the right time, for the enemy is vile and vicious and covets death and destruction for us and freedom loving people everywhere. Speak to the hearts of those in authority in governments worldwide, that all would be effective in our efforts to utterly destroy this continuing threat to our beloved country.
Thank You, O God, for those men and women who stand guard over our skies and our seas and our land. Refresh them, for the work is tedious and tiring. May they feel the prayers of a grateful nation, for today we go about doing ordinary things in ordinary ways, because they stand guard. May their reward be another day in which they have given us just another ordinary day. In the Name of Jesus, I pray, Amen ...
Say it isn't so, JP!
Wonderful. Let's hope the govt doesn't fall to a terrorist group if so.
