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 am sitting here listening to his tape and he's basically saying "convert to Islam because you are going to die".

No he's saying to convert because you are going to die, not convert or die.

He's jewish by birth and converted to Islam from christianity. This is beyond sick. I don't trust Muslims and despise them converting Americans to their death cult.

I've been thinking about this some today.

Does he want us to convert to Islam and then kill the rest of "you all" who won't?

Oh, this was just great. The U.S. gave WMD's to Iraq. You know, the ones that they didn't have, that Bush lied about. Funny how they don't mention the Iraqi war against Iran nor the invasion of Kuwait. Also funny how the U.S. seems to have been blamed for the Crusades that occured in the 13th century. These liberals don't really watch the videos they make or listen to the words that are coming out of their mouths. They can't be. If they did they would have to acknowledge the lunacy of their stupidity.

I heard Troy Lee Designs is on top of this, with a built in chest protector/suicide bomber vest built in, and you can order the optional camelbak hydration unit, easily converted to an anthrax sprayer for the occasional connecting trail through town.

If you hurry, there are still some models left with auto tint eye slits, for those pesky bright lights when you're caught too close to a mushroom cloud.

:~)

The American MAY BE the guy we heard of before

Brian Ross did a report on Gadahn on the 4th anniversary of 9/11.

He's the guy the FBI calls "Azzam The American", that everyone has been talking about.

Looks like #1 Osama Bin Laden is still dead.

That's basically it in a nutshell. Those who won't convert will have no choice but to die.

Am I alone in my desire to see some Special Forces guys take this guy, this idiot, this enemy of our Republic permanently out to rob AQ of his propaganda value?

GRRRR.

LOL.

It really . . . more than irritates me to the max that sooooo many idiot parents--and California is full of them--not only are so lazy, busy, clueless as to avoid transmitting America's founding values to their children--the very successfully transmit totally idiotic, traitorous, self-destructive, evil values quite successfully.

I can't recall such an outrageous phenomena in all of recorded history like we are seeing now--and California and New England take the cake. . . . and Portland and Seattle.

It's interesting, in those two photos . . . he goes from being a smug, defiant, cheeky, indulged twerp

to a . . .

somewhat scared rabbit, robot, stoolie, useless idiot for one of the most evil forces on our planet. And he's not the least bit happier--from his photos. He's just dumber.

Aren't they at least upper middle class or better financially . . .

and 1,000% clueless when it comes to solid values, child rearing, avoiding soiling one's own nest etc?

They struck me as worse idiots than their head-up-his-rear son. At least it was easy to see that he was their evil spawn.

But if I remember, they are whackjobs themselves.

According to him, anyway. You can read the rest of his "manifesto" of why he become a muslim here.  I couldn't find the original (which was posted on the Univ. of Southern California website) but, that link is basically an "archive" of the manifesto, which when I read it back in 2004 was basically a plain simple webpage, black text on a white background.

While funny it's probably more than true. After reading his "manifesto" I got the sense he was a loner in his own little world of teenage rebellion, wanted to feel needed by others, shunned by his parents for being a long-haired, maggot infested, shaggy-haired, death metal music freak.
