Abu Hafs Al-Tikriti threatens France on behalf of Abu Hafs Al-Masri Brigades (النسخه العربية)

Within days of the French election results being announced a self-described al Qaeda cell in Europe, Abu Hafs Al-Masri Brigades, warned France of a “bloody jihad attack” in response to their electoral decision. The threat, posted on Islamist websites and translated by MEMRI, was signed by "Abu Hafs Al-Tikriti, The Abu Hafs Al-Masri Brigades, European Division."

The Abu Hafs Al-Masri Brigades, who al Qaeda #2 Ayman al-Zawahiri has claimed responsibility for, has a history of threats and claimed attacks in multiple European countries, including claiming responsibility for terrorist attacks in London in 2005 and Madrid in 2004. The group is named in honor of Mohammed Atef, the former al Qaeda military commander who has been named in intelligence reports cited in George Tenet’s book "At the Center of the Storm: My Years at the CIA" as an al Qaeda leader who sought out closer links with Saddam Hussein’s regime, including weapons training.

Saddam and terrorism PING

[T. Buzzard Trueblood]

Geez, when are these silly terrorists going to realize there’s no link between Saddam’s Iraq & Al Qaeda?

[SolidWood]

The media and the left tell us that the Saddamites are enlightened secularists who would NEVER cooperate with Islamists! I am so confused.../sarcasm

“Assessing the Credibility of the ‘Abu Hafs Al-Masri Brigades’ Threats”
By Yigal Carmon*.

Your confusion is understandable, but here is how it generally works: If a ‘Rat is President (such as Bill Clinton, for instance), there is a connection, and bombings should commence—especially if there is a scandal that calls for attention diversion (such as Monica Lewinski, for instance). If a Republican is President, particularly one despised by the ‘Rats (such as George Bush, for instance), then there is obviously no connection, and anyone who says there is, is a warmongering lying bloodthirsty jerk. See? Easy.

[Edgerunner]

So they only love lefties! Guess the lefties can’t claim they aren’t on the terrorists side anymore. (although I understand that lefties never let facts get in the way)

Frigen clowns must have really thought the French would vote the socialist in. Now things may slowly change in France, and Islam may get the short end of the stick. Perhaps the majority of French may slowly realize these people are a lot different then others that they have freely accepted into their society.
Then again. Some nations elect to continue to slumber. Burn all their cars and they will still choose to ignore those amongst them that hate the concepts of western democracy other then using it as a free lunch.

I wonder if Saddam was planning a contingency plan for the our 2000 election?

One for Push Over Gore and the other for Butt Bashing Bush.

The Clinton Administration never supported a real regime change because they were too chicken. They just gave a lot of lip service and lobbed bombs during the decades of the 90’s.

Arabs were really disappointed with Clinton Administration because we couldn’t be counted on. Right after the 1996 coup the sanctions were losing its hold and Saddam was oozing out of his containment box.

They weren’t the brave matadors. They lost their nerve at the last stage to commit “tercio de muerte” to kill the beast.

This is what Big Macho Man Gore said this....

“The United States will not flag in supporting your efforts to promote a change of regime. I believe that there can be no peace for the Iraqi people and a genuine peace for the people of the Middle East so long as Saddam is in a position to brutalise his people and threaten his neighbours,” Gore told the representatives of the Iraqi National Congress (INC), an American-backed group seeking to overthrow Saddam. “In the interests of regional peace and for the sake of human decency, [Saddam] must be removed from power. That is the policy of this administration. It is the policy I support. It is the policy I am personally committed to,” he added.”

Blaa....blaaa...blaa..blaa....bla and zzzzzzzzzzzzz
That’s what the Arabs thought.

Remember we never heard about the failing sanctions against Saddam. We never knew Saddam was rebuilding his power base back up.

I didn’t get FoxNews then. We had Main Stream Media.

According to Madeline Albright everything in Iraq was a smashing success.

Yep.

TANKS for the ping...

[jveritas]

Excellent article Mark.

[Grimmy]

Thanks for the ping.

[potlatch]

Thank you for the ping ikez

[Just mythoughts]

Thank you for the ping. This is just plain depressing.

This would make a great debate question at the next liberal gathering. Would as ‘president’ any of them come to the defense of France, now that a non-socialist has been elected?

[Rembrandt]

“Perhaps the majority of French may slowly realize these people are a lot different then others that they have freely accepted into their society.”

Hmm, let’s chew on this a bit.

France is a largely Socialist country. Chirac is certainly a Socialist. Most of the larger industries were nationalized years ago.

Technically then, many, many of the citizens work for Chirac, not directly of course.

Given that he is the boss, it’s almost their duty to support his positions, right?

Sarkozy is now their boss. As with GWB, there will be entrenched Chirakkies who will try to throw sand into the gears, but an awful lot of Sarkozy’s employees are going to shift their allegiances relatively quickly.

Once you get outside of the big cities, esp. Paris, the people in the countryside are rational, just as rational as most of the people in Anytown, USA.

Sarkozy could make a big difference very quickly.

I believe your comments will hold up to the test of time. Each European oountry has it’s silent majority.
