CAIRO, Egypt — Al Qaeda's deputy leader Ayman al-Zawahiri issued a new videotape Saturday along with a man identified as an American member of the terror network, inviting Americans to convert to Islam.

The 41-minute video, posted on an Islamic militant Web site nine days before the fifth anniversary of the Sept. 11 terror attacks, had footage of al-Zawahri and a man the video identified as Adam Yehiye Gadahn, an American who the FBI believes attended Al Qaeda training camps in Pakistan and served as an Al Qaeda translator.

Gadahn and al-Zawahiri did not appear together in the footage but were each featured on a split screen. Both wore white turbans and robes.

I'd rather die by the sword, than deny Christ and convert to Islam.

Sounds like the basis for a new reality series..



Survivor.....Islam?

What is it with these California kids?? We need to just blockade California off. And why do the Media types keep mentioning that he likes Metal music. Most of the Metal Heads I know would kick the crap out of this guy for this BS.

That's where John Gibson's quote comes in. He said, and I will never forget it, that it's better to brown and Christian (alluding to the Mexican issue) than being brown and living under Sharia.

Oh..I know.

I am sure Steve is grateful mostly...but, if I were in his position...

I might wonder if things had turned out different..and Olaf urged him to "convert" and they killed him anyway...wouldn't THAT be horrible if his last act on earth is converting to ISLAM..(hopefully praying to his God while saying his script).

...or, if that fails, for the assassination of Bush, at which point they would do everything possible to prevent the legitimate succession of Cheney.

That sounds so Shakespearian.

Yeah, but I already converted last week.I got tired of shaving, bathing, washing my hair and brushing my teeth---so going muslim is my ticket. I think I'm in the sect that likes pork chops, though. And drinks beer.

Yup. Antichrist religion. Makes sense. I read somewhere in a prophecy related thing recently that Mecca was Babylon and Islam the Antichrist religion of the end times. Don't know, but it sure is sobering to hear about all this stuff.

Scary isn't it? We've killed over 40 million babies in the last 10 years thanks to the Democrats abortion laws. Now, we are importing workers from Mexico to fill the void. What was the point? Stupid politicians.

inviting Americans to convert to Islam

Yeah, I'll give that some serious thought.

If I could get past the lack of pork chops and that whole
'getting shot by my parents' thing it might be pretty cool.

Do I get a free AK47?

I think a conversion comes with a full-auto underfolder and a 1000 round tin.
