Baghdad, 7 June (AKI) - When travelling, wear jeans and carry a walkman -- try not to look like an Islamic fundamentalist -- and for precise instructions on how to link up with Iraqi groups "contact the Salafite jihadist exponents in your own countries". These are just some of the travel tips and suggestions provided on an Islamist internet site for potential al-Qaeda recruits from various Arab and Western countries who have signalled their desire to go to Iraq to fight against the American troops.
"The route to Iraq for mujahadeen who want to reach the country of two rivers" is the title of a message that appears on a prominent Islamic internet forum often used by the al-Qaeda network. "To reach Iraq, you will need detailed instructions," notes the message, signed by "Doctor Islam", "not just on how to get to the country, but on how to enter one of the mujahadeen groups there."
The instruction booklet begins with the recruiting phase,
which is normally used by Salafite imams in Arabic or Western countries. "The Salafite Jihadists are spread throughout various countries. Many are under surveillance or hunted by the police, but despite this they manage to
send zealous young people to Iraq. They [the recruiters]
are not far away but among us, though you will need Allah's help to reach them, as on making contact, we could be accused of terrorism."
The instructions confirm the crucial role of fundamentalist Imams in recruiting aspiring guerrillas for the Jihad in Iraq, but technology also plays a part. "Some of these Salafite mujahadeen participate in our forums" the message says, "and if they do not post many messages it is because they are involved and being hunted by the tyrants".
According to the report, there is the risk of fraudsters even in the recruitment of Islamist terrorists, people who take advantage of the passion of aspiring jihadists to rob them. "Brother, beware of the lies that you find on forums, of those who say they know the way of the Jihad and ask for money. Never give them cash unless they are trusted people in whom you have great faith".
After contacting the mediator via the Internet or through Salafite imams, the would-be guerrillas, bearing a letter of introduction and the exact details of the armed unit they will join, must physically get to Iraq running as few risks as possible. The only route seems to be via Syria, it notes.
"These Salafite jihadists send small groups to Iraq through Syrian territory, but be aware of the Syrian regime which has begun to make entering and leaving the country more difficult. Enter Syria through Turkey, but you will need the help of people who know the procedure," it advises.
The text also warns of potential dangers and what to do if encountered: it is possible that you may be arrested by the Syrian forces. This is most likely to happen if you are not organised, as the Syrian regime tends to turn a blind eye to mujahadeen who use secondary roads or who make their way to Iraq passing only through border towns."
For the journey, the internet forum encourages recruits to wear jeans and carry a walkman with a pop music cassette, so as not to look like a fundamentalist. They are also warned not to inform their families or friends about their plans.
"The organisation of al-Qaeda in Iraq is the group that, more than any other, welcomes mujahadeen and has links with the al-Qaeda cells present in all Arab countries and many other foreign nations," the message concludes.
It is not the first time that messages have appeared on such sites with indications on how to get to Iraq and join up with a terrorist cell, but the latest message is more detailed and possibly a response to enquiries by a growing number of aspiring suicide bombers or terrorists.

Hmmm. The Hitchhikers Guide to Martyrdom. The Syrian role is so obvious to any observer. More likely the Syrians are making money off the jihadists who are organized and arresting the freelancers until they bribe their way out. Looting pilgrims, jihadist crusaders, traders and travelers is an old Arab practice and is the way that Muhammed first organized and expanded his following. Nothing new there, but the organized commercialization of jihad is interesting.
I think we are off the mark thinking we don't need to intervene in Syria and it's costing us and Iraq casualties.

When caught, put the walkman on their heads, turn up the volume and watch their reactions. Should be real interesting.
They are wide open for infiltration...

OK gang, gimme some help on this e-mail I'm putting together:
"In sha'ala, brother, I was given your name by a mutual friend who said you could help me with my small problem.
I am the former Finance Minister of Iraq, and I have in my possession the amount of $300,000,000 US dollars which I most urgently need to transfer into a foreign account, for which I am prepared to offer you 25% if you will serve as my agent.
Please send me your bank account number and any credit card numbers that you may have in your possession..."

That is great!
Bumping that video!
Travis predicted shortly after the Iraq war was winding down that the Islamofacists would rush in to be destroyed.
Travis, as usual was correct.
Every Islamofascist from another country or Iraq who gets whacked in Iraq will never harm another innocent person.
You need their date of birth and their SSN (if they are in the US).
"In sha'ala, brother,"
Wrong opener. "Insha' allah" means God willing but is normally used when speaking of something in the future.
Salaam alaykum (Peace upon you) is the most common. Or 'bism Allah Alrahman Alrahim' (in the name of God the most merciful).
It has been awhile since I've written Arabic down.
At least the Iraqi Nationals we are training won't be short on targets for training.
"At least the Iraqi Nationals we are training won't be short on targets for training."
A Father of a Seal team member, said his son has said the same thing. The Iraqi Nationals when this is wrapped, will be one of the best anti insurgent fighting forces in the world.
Iraq is going to be our best ally.
