Osama's Message Forgotten (vanity)

The Guardian ^ | 11/24/02 | Osama Bin Laden

[RtWngr]

"Permission to fight (against disbelievers) is given to those (believers) who are fought against, because they have been wronged and surely, Allah is Able to give them (believers) victory" [Quran 22:39]

"Those who believe, fight in the Cause of Allah, and those who disbelieve, fight in the cause of Taghut (anything worshipped other than Allah e.g. Satan). So fight you against the friends of Satan; ever feeble is indeed the plot of Satan."[Quran 4:76] .....

If the Americans refuse to listen to our advice and the goodness, guidance and righteousness that we call them to, then be aware that you will lose this Crusade Bush began, just like the other previous Crusades in which you were humiliated by the hands of the Mujahideen, fleeing to your home in great silence and disgrace. If the Americans do not respond, then their fate will be that of the Soviets who fled from Afghanistan to deal with their military defeat, political breakup, ideological downfall, and economic bankruptcy.

This is our message to the Americans, as an answer to theirs. Do they now know why we fight them and over which form of ignorance, by the permission of Allah, we shall be victorious?

After trading emails today with some liberal friends, it occurred to me that none of them had ever read Osama's letter about why he wants to kill us. As the election draws near, this should be required reading by anyone who has any doubts about Bush's offense on terrorism.

(i) You are the nation who, rather than ruling by the Shariah of Allah in its Constitution and Laws, choose to invent your own laws as you will and desire. You separate religion from your policies, contradicting the pure nature which affirms Absolute Authority to the Lord and your Creator.

Tell that to the "our version of the Taliban" contingent in America. It turns out that one of bin Laden's complaints against us is that we separate religion from our policies. And he wrote this when Bush was president, not Clinton.

They probably have not read some of the passages in the Quran either.

thank you for posting the message.
One thing htat drives me over the edge is when the lefties say it is our fault that we were attacked, then say that going to Iraq made things worse!!!!!!!! We lost 3,000 people on 9-11 I don't recall America attacking anyone prior to 9-11, the leftist rhetoric has always been anti-American.

Here's some more gibberish out of the mouth of one of Bin Laden's henchmen.. can't argue with this logic... it's so LOGICAL!:

---

Q: "Mr. Mahfouz, you are accused of being terrorists. How do you defend someone who killed innocent people? Are you really terrorists?"

Abu Hafs: "If terrorism is killing people who are really innocent, that is, those whose killing Allah has prohibited, such as women, children, and the elderly, and non-combatants, then we are not terrorists.

---

Above is an excerpt from an Al Jazeera interview with Abu Hafs "the Mauritanian" - Al Qaeda Leader, whose real name is Mahfouz Walad Al-Walid and who the FBI accuses of having connections to the bombings of the American embassies in Africa, has been placed on the U.S. list of terrorists and terrorist groups, where he is also referred to as Khaled Al-Shanqiti.

They wouldn't have. For the info gatekeepers the letter, like many of Osama's speeches, are problematic. A variety of complaints are listed that "liberals" would think have no good grounding. It doesn't gibe with the "they hate us because of Iraq and Israel" closed mind-set. Plus the "supporting Arab dictators" reason is undermined because OBL cogently states he wants to install regimes that would be in their eyes worse.

Osama has neglected one important fact. Acts of individuals in concert can cut both ways.

A dedicated Christian team can win the last crusade by destroying the shrines at Mecca, Jerusalem, and Medina thus ending Islam.

If pilgrimages to the forevermore radioactive Kaaba are not possible there will be no more Hajjis, there will be no more Islam.

The Guardian isn't "too" bad. It emailed me many addresses of voters in OHIO which I wrote to "politely" asking them to vote for George W. Bush. And I even emailed the guardian thanking them for the addresses "politely" of course.

DUBYA is our man ! ! !

The Guardian 11/24/02 - bin Laden (?)

The 11/24/02 date must be the date the letter was published. Couldn't have been written on 11/24/02. Well, it sure is easy enough to prove. Right? I'm sure the editors of the Guardian can obtain a video of binny boy with a current edition of their paper. That would convince me, and about 5 million jihadis.
