Bad news. Here's a FR thread discussing Anbar Province Government Dedicates Succes vs. Al-Qaeda to 9/11 Victims

RAMADI, Iraq - When members of the government of Anbar Province met with President Bush last week, they presented him with a letter dedicating their success in wiping out Al Qaeda here to the victims of Sept. 11.

The letter, which was obtained by the Daily News, was signed by Anbar Governor Mamoun Sami Rashid, Provincial Council Chairman Abdul-Salam Abdullah, and Sheik Sattar abu Risha, the sheik credited with beginning the Anbar Awakening. ...

"The death of this man will arouse the emotions of the Sunni Arabs in Iraq to very high level which will be quickly expressed in an unprecented campaign of extermination against Al Qaeda terrorists and their allies."

Those who aren't al Qaeda, you mean. If anyone doubts this man, a Sunni, was extraordinary, the fact that he's been murdered to get him out of the way by Wahhabist Sunnis should be the deciding proof. Very sad.

The media will spin retaliation as an example of "violence...SPIRALLING...outof...control....DESPITE the claims by both Bush and Grneral Patraeus that the so-called....TROOP....SURGE...isworking."

I am so sad and angry about this. Just yesterday we were celebrating a post here about this man. He dedicated their victory in the names of the 9/11 victims. And now he has become one.

I hope those cretin subhuman bat-turds responsibleare found and destroyed.

May he rest in peace.

Ahmed Massoud. A hero of our time.

Something needs to be done to remember this hero.

Ahmed Massoud.

This would be the fellow at the top in afghanistan, whose people Clinton, Tenet, and Berger would have been working with but in the end abandoned, yes?

[dragnet2]

Isn’t this the guy that Bush just met with last week?

[Blue State Insurgent]

Like the sheik that Al Sattar had replaced wanting his job back?

[Polynikes]

“Reminiscent of the assassination of the Afghan resistance leader on 9/11/01.”

I noticed that also. It was a precursor to the 9/11 operation
In light of recent news re: people with AK47’s and IAF hitting the Syrians it might pay off to be a little extra alert these next few days. Just a thought.

I didn’t know about that, but I’m just suggesting that there are quite possibly some Judas’s in his bunch.....although al Q will be quite willing to put the feather in their own hat whether they actually did it or not, thru a Judas or not.....

[jveritas]

I browsed quickly into some terrorist websites and the evil SOB’s are celebrating the killing of Abu Risha. They are too stupid to know the horrors that will be coming to Al Qeada terrorists in the next few days.

[jveritas]

The treasonous liberal media has been doing this for long time so nothing new. We are not expecting the treasonous liberal to stop undermining the war at anytime.

God help us .. this is awful. Prayers for this brave man and his family.

There are no depths of cruelty of savagery to which these beasts won't sink.

Praying for the brave Iraqis on our side and their families. They're all at critical risk. Lord, protect them.

[AliVeritas]

In hindsight, doesn’t it figure they posed as press.

Observing the alliance of the press with terrorists now.

May God have mercy, may his death bear much fruit in justice. This is a true martyr.

[astounded]

I think it has come to pass that the MSM in the USA is beginning to pose a clear and present danger to the rest of us in their hatred of GWB and desire to hurt his administration in any way possible to forward the political fortunes of the democrat party. With the 2008 election, I think we are at a crossroad that could lead to irretrievable damage to our national purpose if the MSM succeeds in its aims.

[Kitty Mittens]

This is Horrible News, and my Prayers are with his Family.

[AliVeritas]

Feast of Our Lady of Sorrows.

PS: They are celebrating the death of this Iraqi hero on the terrorists forums.

You mean DU, GailyKooks, and Moron.org?
