An article charging that Switzerland is the “most contemptible among the enemies of Islam” was recently disseminated across several jihadist and password-protected al-Qaeda affiliated forums. The document, originally authored by Colonel Doctor Muhammad al-Ghanam, the former Director of Legal Investigations in the Egyptian Ministry of Interior and a political refugee in Switzerland, explains the alleged false guise of Swiss neutrality, not only on a political level, but on a personal level in light of al-Ghanam’s own experiences.
Switzerland is branded one of the “most dangerous links in the ‘international pact of the cross’,” due to its continued participation in the occupation of Iraq, cooperation with the “current renegade regime” in Egypt, and applying pressure on Turkey because of its government has become half-Islamic. Al-Ghanam avers that the Swiss neutrality is a mere façade that allows it to conceal its “crusading face” and penetrate Muslim society to collect intelligence. Further, from his own experience with the “aggressive and tyrannical behavior” of the Swiss, the author alleges that a forceful attempt was made upon him to infiltrate al-Qaeda groups, that he refused, and he was subsequently arrested under “some pretext.” He states: “freedom of opinion is nothing but a war against Islam.”
Concluding the article, al-Ghanam repeats his condemnation of the Swiss government, and reminds Muslims to beware of Switzerland, “your contemptible enemy hiding behind false claims of neutrality, making war on your religion without your knowledge. However, the Swiss will not slip away with their crimes against Islam and Muslims: "The day we strike the big stroke, we will avenge."
The article received hundreds of views on the message boards, where many members expressed their gratitude for opening their eyes to the Swiss. Two such responses: “We attack it soon and know that they are enemies of Islam and Muslims” and “It’s not Switzerland only… but it’s the entire Europe and in fact, it’s all the Jews, Christians, and the non-believers,” are such an example of the members’ views.
I've taken a whole new opinion about "ethnic cleansing" --- since I've been forced to acknowledge the role and goal of Islam.....
If there are not enough willing and capable "Peace Loving MODERATE Muslims" to address the lunatics in their midst ---- someone else will, with great prejudice..
Semper FI
Mrs. Lurkin was very disappointed that he beat Agassi.
I hope the Swiss freeze his assets :)
Good for the Swiss. Taking sides proves good and prudent.
currently reviewing plans to open a cuckoo clock shop in Syria.
Proud to be a contemptible enemy of islam.
LOL Al Ghanan claims he was arrested on some "pretext" and spouting this garbage? He should have stayed arrested.
Good advice for all, don't try. It's more than cuckoo clocks and chocolate.
This is simply another confirmation that muslims enjoy picking on the weak and/or unprepared.
Women and children first.
In actual fact Switzerland has sheltered several AQ financiers.
Hitler made the same mistake.
Sounds like an Idi Amin devotee.
Would I be insulting clams if I said these guys were dumber then a room full of clams?
ACtually these guys don't clam up, but they do have clammy hands.
I hardly think that is the case.
These fanatics will soon discover the capital of Switzerland is not Paris!
Something doesn't add up. How many billions of Arab petrodollars have been turned away by Swiss banks on principle alone? How many billions in Nazi gold were squirreled away in `neutral' Switzerland? Yes, every Swiss home with a reservist living there has an automatic rifle in it (would we would do likewise!). But just where is this Crusader-like desire among the Swiss to defend Christianity that it provokes angry rage in the Islamofascists?
More like a warning shot across the bow by Al-Qaeda.
Directed against the mighty Swiss Navy.
Dimes to donuts that not only is he receiving asylum from the Swiss, but welfare payments and services as well. (Side bet he's also a regular patron of Swiss brothels.) Ten to one odds he has no job, except penning vindictive rants denouncing those who have shown him kindness and tolerance, and given him shelter and sustenance.
One of the (few) good points of Arab culture is the high status accorded the the principle of hospitality. Like most Islamists this P.O.S. has defecated on that virtue. The dog should be immediately returned to the tender mercies of his fellow Muslims in Egypt.
No, that was one mistake Hitler did not make.
Financially, neutral Switzerland was of far too much use to the German Reich than to risk a bloody invasion of the mountain-locked state.
As the Reich collapsed, much gold and treasure pillaged by the Nazis made its way into safe, secure Switzerland.
