From the pages of Vivificat!: Californian Adam Gadahn, wearing a white robe and turban, introduces the message by calling on Westerners to convert

Folks, according to CNN and numerous others news outlets:

ISLAMABAD, Pakistan (CNN) -- A new videotape has surfaced featuring Osama bin Laden's second-in-command, Ayman al-Zawahiri, and an American member of al Qaeda wanted by the FBI, according to a counterterrorism expert.

The tape, called "Invitation to Islam," runs 48 minutes, expert Laura Mansfield said. Al-Zawahiri speaks for about 4 minutes on the tape, and the American narrates the rest.

Californian Adam Gadahn, wearing a white robe and turban, introduces the message by calling on Westerners to convert. (Watch Gadahn accuse President Bush of not caring about U.S. troops -- 5:42)

Gadahn says that even Americans working with President Bush and British Prime Minister Tony Blair are invited to embrace Islam, but they should hurry.

"We invite all Americans and believers to Islam, whatever their role and status in Bush and Blair's world order," Gadahn says. "Decide today, because today could be your last day."

Here's my answer:

NO WAY

In no way will I turn into a person so UGLY, inside and outside, filled with murderous hatred against others and then, pompously declaring to believe in "God." Keep your beliefs, your faith, your fatwas, your jihad--and that little wagging finger--and instead, look into your heart and if there's any love left, convert to Christ. He will change you, renew you, and remake you into a new person and will excise the humiliation and the murderous hatred that fills your heart.

Do so soon, because He may you call you to His presence any time now, and not necessarily through my doing or through the doing of the earthly might of the United States of America.

Although I wouldn't disregard that possibility either, since God acts in mysterious ways.

I wouldn't dishonor my father by even contemplating it. He didn't convert and neither will I. I will happily die for my faith in God and they will force Islam upon me only over my dead body. We in the West too - can be martyrs for our faith.
