Maybe Stratfor should have actually read the Omar interview before they tried to analyze it...
Here's the full exchange from the interview -- it's a lot less scary than the "summaries" that some news organizations have used to mischaracterize it:
BBC: What do you think of the current situation in Afghanistan?Sounds to me like their "big plan" is to pray like hell for Allah to come down and smite us for the Taliban.Omar: You (the BBC) and American puppet radios have created concern. But the current situation in Afghanistan is related to a bigger cause - that is the destruction of America...
BBC: What do you mean by the destruction of America? Do you have a concrete plan to implement this?
Omar: The plan is going ahead and, God willing, it is being implemented. But it is a huge task, which is beyond the will and comprehension of human beings. If God's help is with us, this will happen within a short period of time; keep in mind this prediction.
BBC: Osama Bin Laden has reportedly threatened that he would use nuclear, chemical or biological weapons against America. Is your threat related to his?
Omar: This is not a matter of weapons. We are hopeful for God's help. The real matter is the extinction of America. And, God willing, it (America) will fall to the ground.
The mighty hand of Allah will smite the Judeo/ Christain forces of the Devil. Allah is eternally angry at the imperialistic/ hooligan/ Zionist lackeys who have decided to wage an unholy war against the righteous children of Islam. We will burn them with the unquenchable fire that is the Law of Allah. We will blah, blah, blah............
Hey Omar. Incoming, babe.
That's the way I read it too.
