This pic should sum up how some of this thread should be viewed.

< rant > There is a lot of speculation here. I, for one, am still having a tough time believing that these twerps are gonna give us any kind of warning - Must be wishful thinking on my part that the lower-level Jihadists like to brag. Take what you want from it (not so much that you become paranoid) and be careful not to spin fiction into fact, then just sit back and enjoy the show. If some events have and will be pre-empted we may never know, we'll just go on discussing the next topic du jour. If this is somebody's idea of a sick joke (shame on them, it is not funny) then I guess some of us are just willing suckers and we've decided to keep on playing the game. Who knows! We're not bothering anyone (except for a few Freepers annoyed at seeing this thread in the latest posts) and nobody is getting hurt so let the games continue. < /rant >

BTW, it is a grain of salt in the above pic. ;) LG2

Today's SITE Institute analysis has this to say about the latest issue of the al-Qaeda biweekly "Sawt al-Jihad" [Voice of Jihad] online magazine a.k.a. the "S9" document...


Attyiat-Allah also writes about a possible future attack on the same scale as 9-11, stating, "[T]he truth is that for a long time now, I was raising a simple yet specific and clear question to some people who have connections in al-Qaeda, asking them if there is going to be a second, bigger attack. From the answers, some of the next attack's features were gathered, and the following are the most prominent:

*** It will be an innovative attack, in the sense that it will be completely unexpected, and impossible for them [the West] to even think about or picture its way of action, for it is unimaginable in the normal way.

*** It will be bigger, in the sense that the loss from which America and the Western World will suffer [will be bigger], because it will be very big and immeasurable.

*** Due to its greatness, it will change the global power balance.
