THE al-Qaeda terrorist who was this week charged with treason by the US has issued a chilling video threat to Britain.

 

Adam Gadahn, also known as 'Azzam the American' vowed in a video message that raids by British terror cops would do nothing to "prevent the Muslims from exacting revenge on behalf of their persecuted brothers and sisters".

Gadahn is so feared in the US, the FBI has placed him on its Most Wanted Terrorists List and offered a $1million reward for information leading to his arrest.

FBI agents warn that Gadahn should be considered armed and dangerous. watch video here

 

 


Forest Gate and Belmarsh will not prevent the Muslims exacting revenge...
Adam Gadahn
 

The 28-year-old is originally from California, but is thought to be in hiding in Pakistan.

Last month, days before the fifth anniversary of the 9/11 World Trade Centre attacks, Gadahn appeared in a video with al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden's second in command, Ayman al-Zawahiri and was seen taunting the US about the tragedy.

And he callously praised the hijackers behind the attacks as "dedicated, strong-willed, highly motivated individuals with a burning concern for Islam and Muslims".

In the video, Gadahn says: "What I am saying is that when we bomb their cities and civilians, like they bomb ours, or destroy their infrastructure and means of transportation, like they destroy ours, or kidnap their non-combatants, like they kidnap ours, no sane Muslims should shed tears for them.

"And they should blame no one but themselves, because they are the ones who started this dirty war and they the ones who will end it, by ending the aggression against Islam and Muslims, by pulling out of our region, and by keeping their hands out of our affairs.

"And until and unless they do that, neither Forest Gate-style police raids, nor Belmarsh, or Guantanamo prison cells, nor the mosques and Imams advisory councils will be able to prevent the Muslims from exacting revenge on behalf of their persecuted brothers and sisters."

Neil Doyle, al-Qaeda expert and author of Terror Base UK, said: "Azzam regularly refers to the UK and that suggests that he is in contact with operatives and supporters in this country.

"The US move could backfire, as naming him as a traitor will only enhance his status within the network.

"There's been much speculation over his exact role, but it's become clear that he's at least playing a leading role in al-Qaeda propaganda efforts.

"It looks like he is in line for further promotion, as he's now becoming known as the voice of al-Qaeda."

This guy reminds me of Keith Olbermann. Yeah I am guessing they both took abuse in high school for being nerdy. Olbermann is lucky he got a gig at ESPN or he might have ended up in Pakistan. He fits the profile.

"Gadahn is so feared in the US, the FBI has placed him on its Most Wanted Terrorists.."

I think "so feared" is overstating it a bit. I doubt there's a high school football player in the country, much less grown male, who wouldn't pay for the chance to go three rounds with this punk mano a mano. But.....as we all know Muzzies never fight mano a mano - they shoot you in the back or blow up women and children.

I always thought that Al Qaeda would be a lot more effective if they had an American who knew all about our culture running things. I'm curious to see what Al Qaeda does when this Orange County leftist is given more control over operations.

American warned of UK al-Qaeda attacks
Posted by: Neil on Thursday, October 12, 2006 - 02:36 PM

Wanted US al-Qaeda operative Adam Gadahn claimed in a recent video that raids by police would not stop further attacks in the UK.

Gadahn, also known as "Azzam the American", was yesterday charged with treason by the US authorities.

The charges were made after he featured in a series of al-Qaeda videos praising the 9/11 hijackers and referring to the USA as "enemy soil".

In a video released to co-incide with the first anniversary of the London 7/7 attacks, he claimed that police raids "will not be able to prevent the Muslims for extracting revenge on behalf of their persecuted brothers and sisters".

He called on Americans to convert to Islam in his last video appearance on 2 September.

Wait till he gets caught.

He is going to be a crying, babbling idiot whimpering for mercy on TV and later through his ACLU lawyers and his dysfunctional parents will go on Larry King Live with a tear jerker story.

Just another California kid who flunked out of liberal self-esteem classes and went looking for nurturing from Muslim terrorists. Nice fake Mussie accent to go with his circus show!

Fear isn't what puts your face on the Most Wanted list. It's revulsion.

Note that he's toned down the rhetoric, most likely to appeal to the appeasing, spineless antiwar Left in Europe and the USA. Previously, the deal (as stated by OBL) was that we all had to convert to Islam or die, preferably the latter.
Now, it's only that we have to get out of 'their' areas and 'stop messing' in 'their' affairs.

Coexistence is a HUGE departure from "pray to Allah or die, but we would rather just kill you".

They are losing and they know it, and they are desperately trying to sway public opinion in their favor; that they are 'reasonable'.
