Father of 9/11 hijacker warns of 50-year war
The father of one of the September 11 hijackers said today he had no sorrow for what had happened in London and claimed more terrorist attacks would follow.
Egyptian Mohamed el-Amir, whose son Mohamed Atta commandeered the first plane that crashed into the World Trade Centre in New York, said there was a double standard in the way the world viewed the victims in London and victims in the Islamic world.
El-Amir said the attacks in the US and the July 7 attacks in Britain were the beginning of what would be a 50-year religious war, in which there would be many more fighters like his son.
Speaking to a CNN producer in his apartment in the upper-middle-class Cairo suburb of Giza, he declared that terror cells around the world were a "nuclear bomb that has now been activated and is ticking".
Cursing in Arabic, el-Amir also denounced Arab leaders and Muslims who condemned the London attacks as being traitors and non-Muslims.
He passionately vowed that he would do anything within his power to encourage more attacks.
now that sounds like a real nice, well-centered muslim! /sarc
Grease him....
Time for a visit from SEAL Team 6, I'd say...
Someone out there correct me if I'm wrong...but didn't Mo Atta's dad deny (for quite some time) that his son was involved in 9/11?
Sure sounds to be like he's changed his tune more than a little.
The apple doesn't fall far...
He most certainly did.
Do you have a working link for this article? Thanks.
A 50 year war? It wouldn't take that long to squash the Muslim Menace.
Victims in the Islamic world?!? Does he mean the Iraqi victims other Iraqi terrorists are blowing up?
Remember....Muslims can lie when they want according to their rules.
Why is this news?
Uncharacteristically honest (now) for a 'slime, I'd say.
Sounds like he heard about Club Gitmo on Rushlimbaugh.com and is trying to join.
he shouldn't be breathing.
This man and his entire immediate family should be executed. I have advocated that for the families of all Muslim terrorists and have been flamed BEFORE this man came out and said what has said. He just vindicated my position. The entire family in the case of Islam is almost always involved directly, or indirectly in this activity. It make take some of you a while, but you'll see it eventually.
What is he talking about - victims in the Islamic world?
People in the Islamic world are victims of their own beliefs. Basically, Islamic beliefs go hand-in-hand with the dictatorships and oppressive forms of government that characterize Islamic countries.
Right now, the Islamic world (represented by the father of the terrorist in this article) are just a bunch of whiners, they are not victims. If the west ever gets serious about fighitng the Islamic scourge threatening our way of life - then we will see some real victims in the Islamic world. The father of the terrorist is correct though, in his assertion that this conflict will last decades. I sincerely hope that the Islamic world comes to its senses before the people of the western world are roused from their multicultural tolerance-driven pacifist slumber.
Yep. He'd look better as a grease spot on the desert floor.
