Admit defeat; Pullout win for Islam, Zawahiri tells Bush (The Mouse continues to roar)

Admit defeat
Pullout win for Islam, Zawahiri tells Bush

DUBAI (AFP)
Al Qaeda number two Ayman Al Zawahiri called on US President George W. Bush to “admit defeat in Iraq” and  said any future US troop withdrawal would be a “victory” for Islam, in a video broadcast by Al-Jazeera yesterday.
“Bush, you must admit that you have been defeated in Iraq and that you are being defeated in Afghanistan and that you will soon be  defeated in Palestine, with the help and strength of God,” said  Zawahiri, sitting with an assault rifle at his side.
“I congratulate the Muslims on Islam’s victory in Iraq. I said more than a year ago that the Americans departure from Iraq is only a matter of time,” said the bespectacled Zawahiri, who wore a white turban.
Jazeera said the video, which had English subtitles, carried the date of the Muslim lunar month which ended in December.
Zawahiri said elections in his home country were a “US game ... designed to mislead the Muslim public”. “America tells Islamists: every time your behaviour improves, we’ll give you more (seats), until you become secularists with only a false affiliation to Islam.” “My Muslim nation, you will never enjoy free elections ... and governments answerable to their people ... unless you are liberated from the Crusader-Zionist occupation and corrupt governments, and that can only be achieved through jihad (holy war).”

Interesting choice for the Democrat response to Bush's weekend radio talk.

This could easily read

Democrat number two Murtha called on US President George W. Bush to “admit defeat in Iraq” and said any future US troop withdrawal would be a “victory” for democrats, in a video broadcast by Al-Jazeera yesterday. “Bush, you must admit that you have been defeated in Iraq and that you are being defeated in Afghanistan and that you will soon be defeated in Palestine, with the help and strength of atheists."

Forget all the other posts about Baghdad Bob. Zawahiri does sound more like a Democrat than anything else, and I'm sure Brian Williams and Katie Curic can't wait to say so on Monday.

Zawhiri has become the comic relief of al-Qaeda.

Bin Laden and Zarqawi know you only make video messages to the world when the time is right for maximum effect. The last Zarqawi and Bin Laden videos came out over a year ago.

Zawhiri has become Baghdad Bob releasing a video every other month saying they have defeated the US Army and won. Hell, even the jihadists in the field know the guy is full of shit.

The democrats thought they would do more damage to the president and our troops if they had Zawahiri read their latest piece of propaganda.I'm sure that Howard Dean has Zawahiri's cave on speed dial since they both work hand and hand to defeat their enemy.

"any future US troop withdrawal would be a “victory” for Islam..."

OK, I am waiting for immediate, sweeping, global condemnation from "moderate, tolerant Islam" (can you hear me, Malaysia and Indonesia?), saying that Zawahiri does not represent true Islam.

Waiting...

Still waiting...

Waiting even longer...

Thanks, Murtha. How many more troops and innocent Iraqis have lost their lives thanks to your and other Democrats' encouragement?

and in other news:

Nancy Pelosi has been "kidnapped" while visiting Syria. And in a mysterious turn of events, dozen of jailed terrorists in were released before she was set free.

No way! I figured that he would come to the States. People would eat up his gimmick.

Maybe he can go on American Idol or something ;-)

It answers this in the DVD, and I would have to watch it again to be exact, but I recall it stating that he is alive and is in poor health and spirits.  The US military is aware of his whereabouts but doesn't consider him worth arresting....he is viewed as just another Iraqi who would have been tortured to death if he hadn't done what he was told.

Thanks, Stoat. I had missed the link you placed above the pic of the DVD. I had thought it was a phoney!

Its true! I can't figure out why the guy isn't in jail. He was hysterical though!...... Anyway another bizarre fact or piece of trivia I heard today is that creep George Galloway is going on the British version of''Big Brother''! Weird!
