August 4, 2005. New tape from Ayman Zawahiri released on Al Jazeera this morning
In the tape, played on Al Jazeera TV at approximately 8 am ET this morning, Zawahiri mentions the London bombings, and claims that more are on the way. He claims that the destruction of London will be felt again in London, and will also be felt in the United States.
Some preliminary observations:
1. The black turban worries me. Zawahiri traditionally is shown wearing a white turban.
2. The position of the gunsight is proximate to the body, rather than away from the body. That has in the past been correlated with attacks within 2-15 days after the airing of a tape.
3. In the portion of the tape I have translated so far I have seen NO mention of the death of King Fahd. That indicates to me that the tape was made prior to the announcement of the death of Fahd.
A full translation and analysis is underway.

Black turban means you will want to get crazy from the sun.
On another note, I hope your son is feeling much better.

Hello,
The black headress means he is leading troops into battle.
Sorry, I was out for the day, just getting back online now.
Oh. Not good at all. Thank you for the information.

Hey StillProud,
Could the black turban be for mourning King Fahd?
Thanks for the info Cal.
I don't think so.
First, Zawahiri has been railing against Fahd for years now.
Secondly, I think that had Zawahiri been aware of Fahd's death, he would have mentioned it.
I am a little surprised he didn't mention the attacks in Egypt. Of course I've only heard 2 minutes and 3 seconds of a larger tape so far. But his last tape railed against Egypt (as well as other countries).
If I had to place a date on the tape I would put it somewhere after July 7, and before July 22. But I really need to hear the rest of the tape. I've been away from the computer for hours now so perhaps it's been released. I'll go look for it now.
Actually, he fears a young Marine putting a bullet between his eyes.
In all honesty, these islamofacsists kill women and children because they fear real men. Oh, btw, you jihadis who are reading this, ya'all are a bunch of pussies, just like your leaders. A good bet would be that all of you don't have two working testicles between you.

It was just a thought I had and wanted to bounce it off you since there were questions on the thread about the black headdress.
Wanted to make sure I answered it correctly.
Thanks!
ROFL!
You go M Kehoe!
