American al-Qaeda Cries “Uncle”

************************************EXCERPTS***************************

al-Qaeda is in deep, deep trouble in the Middle East. Since 9-11 and their one success, President Bush made good on his claim at the WTC site where, through a bullhorn, be promised those responsible for 9-11 would be hearing from all of us, soon. Now Afghanistan is a promising democracy with a bright future. And Iraq is on its way to changing the face of the Middle East. Not so much because Saddam Hussein is gone and unable to destabilize the region as before, and not because Iraq is the first large democracy in the region combining three Muslim factions into a single governing entity. While those two features of Iraq and large and important, they pale in comparison to the result al-Qaeda has garnered from Iraq. Their brutal ways created a massive backlash across the country. Former allies and enablers have now sworn on the Koran to defeat al-Qaeda. And the Muslim world is spurning the murderous ways of al-Qaeda, which is obvious given Muslims are by far the most numerous victims of al-Qaeda’s bloodlust.

So as Iraq has become a terminal disaster for al-Qaeda, it is not surprising they have released a video with lots of bravado and lame threats, and a cry to the US to stop whipping them up so badly:

American al Qaeda leader Adam Gadahn says al Qaeda will continue to target the United States at home and overseas, singling out U.S. embassies as a target, in a new Internet video released by as Sahab, the propaganda wing of al Qaeda.

“We shall continue to target you at home and abroad, just as you target us at home and abroad, and these spy dens and military command and control centers from which you plotted your aggression against Afghanistan and Iraq, and which still provide vital moral, military, material and logistical support to the Crusade, shall continue to be legitimate targets for brave Muslims,” says Gadahn, who hails from Orange County, Calif. “Stop the Crusade, and leave the Muslims alone”.

Emphasis mine. Gadahn seems to be almost pleading in that last bit. It’s as if al-Qaeda is saying “you better stop or else we might try and hit you”. It sounds to me like al-Qaeda is crying “uncle” because they are in a headlock and finally realizing they are not strong enough to get out of it. Too bad, they should have thought of this before 9-11 and all the other attacks.

Thanks!

If we were united NO ONE could beat us and might not even try. The Democrats, whose craving for power trumps a rational fear of the enemy, are the ones who make some think we’re a paper tiger. The stakes in this next election couldn’t be bigger - for our kids and their kids.

However, even if we defeated them in Iraq we still have the mentality of whites/liberals who want to surrender our culture. They’re creating a cultural vacuum that will be filled by those with stronger beliefs - including all sorts of deviants and also the Muslims. We have a long way to go if we're ever going to get this once great country back.
