Baghdad, 6 July (AKI) - The latest audio message, purporting to be from Jordanian militant leader Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, has called of Muslim women to play a more active role in the Jihad or Holy War. The one-hour-long speech, posted on Islamist Internet forums, is entitled 'Religion declines and I am still alive'. "What have you done for this nation?" asks al-Zarqawi referring to Muslim women, "don't you see that men get astride their horses and take up arms for the Jihad. Why do you not incite your husbands to fight in the Jihad against the infidels?".
"I make an appeal to the women of the Islamic nation in general and the Iraqi nation in particular, where are you in this Jihad?" .
The message confirms al-Qaeda's strategy of involving Muslim women in its terror activities, as first indicated nearly a year ago on an al-Qaeda-linked website, Al-Khansa, targeted at a female audience.
In his speech, al-Zarqawi frequently refer to religion and the rules of Jihad, which he says are modeled on the religious example the caliphate set up by the Prophet Mohammed's successor, Abu Bakr, and the ideological example of 12th century Syrian sheik, Ibn Taymiyya.
"This is a message for the enemy of Allah [US president George W.] Bush. In reality the God in which you believe is the God of Evil and the Christ that you are waiting for is none other than the Anti-Christ. The enemy is living a terrible moment in Iraq and even members of the US Congress recognise this".

Aid and comfort...
Whats the matter Zarqawi are the vaunted holy warriors getting their arse waxed daily.....so now you have to recruit women.
Not like a Muslim male to hide behind a womans skirt..tsk tsk.
Great...thank you senators...DEMOCRATS. Your support for the Jihad is well appreciated by the terrorists.
"What have you done for this nation?" asks al-Zarqawi referring to Muslim women"
Well, when all the men have blown themselves up, the women will be free to do as they want, Now that's incentive!
OH OH sounds like a draft to me!
Bingo. The very good thing about a down and dirty Supreme Court fight is that our enemies will take far less aid and comfort over an abortion battle than they have over prison photos, Koran flushings or cut and run timelines.
So I guess Al-Zarqawi and TROP thinks women are only worth strapping bombs to their bodies but not much else.
Where are you, Zarqawi? Probably hiding under a burqa.
This particular communication from our enemy is an indication that we have reached a tipping point in the war, IMHO.
Sounds like he's getting short on supplies of stupid and suicidal men.
Next it'll be an appeal to the chickens and camels.
The terrorists are extremely desperate to call for women suicide bombers. They are running quickly out of suicide bombers and jihadists because our troops killed and captured over 25000 of them in Iraq alone. President Bush strategy of making Iraq the center front in the war on terror is working very well. They have been coming to Iraq in the thousands to fight our troops and we are annihilating them in the thousands. By the end of this year, the terrorist insurgency in Iraq will be almost dead if not completely dead.

"In reality the God in which you believe is the God of Evil and the Christ that you are waiting for is none other than the Anti-Christ."
Uh oh Abu, now you went and did it...I have a feeling you may pay for that one in ways of biblical proportion... Enjoy hell!
Reminds me of the Germans drafting elderly men and little boys toward the end of WWII....or the Confederacy authorizing conscription of slaves to fight toward the end of the Civil War. Desperate times call for desperate measures. But such measures always fail.
Not just the dems. RINOcrats have recently voiced it also.
Thank you, chicken members of Congress, for helping Al Qaeda.
Do the women get 72 virgin men for a gang bang if they kill themselves like the men do? Woops!
They get to clean up after the 72 virgins
