Palestinian To Suceed Osama as Al Qaeda Chief
Hindustan Times and Ria-Novosti News Agency (Moscow) ^ | Monday , December 17, 2001 | Arun Mohanty

Posted on 12/17/2001 7:47:57 AM PST by umbra

Al Qaeda has named a Palestinian to be Osama bin Laden's sucessor in case the latter is arrested or killed, Russian news agency Ria-Novosti reported.

Quoting sources in Dubai, Ria-Novosti said Al-Qeada members fleeing Afghanistan have revealed this to Pakastani intelligence officers during interrogations.

The leadership of the terrorist outfit would pass over to Zain Al-Abedin Hasan, a 30-year-old Palestinian from Gaza Strip, in case of Bin Laden's death or arrest, Ria-Novosti reported.

Hasan has been based in Pershwar for the last few years, overseeing the recruitment and dispatch of mercenaries from different parts of the world to Afghanistan.

The Palestinian is accused of masterminding the terrorist attacks on citizens of western countries in Aman on New Year's eve in 2000, said Ria-Novosti.

Not giving it to his sons?

UBL juniors may be unavailable, although MO has a dead senator, maybe a stiff can run al Qaeda too.

So much for pretending that Arafat wasn't in league with Osama.

Sh posted, "Clearly the Palestinians are making a concerted effort for the International Darwin Genocide Award. I've yet to see an entire group of people so determined to see themselves killed."

Actually you are too kind in limiting the Internatinal Darwin Award to the Palestinians!

The award goes to the entire population of arrogant and terminally stupid Islamic Terrorists and those who love them and support them!

Just look at the incredible stupid and arrogant things this sub human population of Islamic fanatics has done in the last 4 months of this year!

9/11, which has brought the full force of our military and the support of over 80% of Americans to kill all connected with Islamic terrorism!

Finally poed the Russians in Checnia. The Russians now have the tacit approval of the US to kill all of those Islamic terrorist and scum who back them in their areas!

Hamas et al has enabled the Israelis to have a free shot at all terrorists, Hamas and other Palestinian terrorists and terrorist backer. Their arrogance re the recent suicide attacks and attacks while GW's ambassador was over there is the end of Arafatty and the rest of these scum bags!

These terminal idiots have commited over 24 recent bomb attacks in western China including the destruction of the McDonald's and death of innocents there. This has give the ChiComs the freedom to remove all Islamic terrorists. There will be no complaints of violation of their first amendment rights ChiCom land as the ChiComs remove these threats to its population!

The attack of India's parliament has made all Islamic fanatics in India fair game!

Comments by the super rich Arabic tyrants in charge of Iraq, Iran and Syria have justified removing these tyrants and their supporters.

Now this arrogant announcement re OBL's replacement all Palestian fanatics fair game!

All these Islamic idiots need to do is commit terrorism against Germany and Japan to have rest of the world against them! I'm sur that in a month or two, these arrogant scumbags will po Germany and Japan to start exterminating the Islamic fanatic plague in their areas!

They warned us about WWIII, and they are setting up WWIII against all Islamic fantics and Joe Six camel who supports these fanatics and terrorists. The Jihad that is happening and will be happening is the Mother of all Jihads against the shallow end of the human gene pool, the Islamic fanatics and their supporters!

So the Darwin award for stupidity which resulted in the wipeout of the fanatic Islamic scum in the human gene pool, 2001/2002 should go to these terminally stupid and arrogant Islamic terrorists and the stupid Arabs who back them!

The good Arabs throughout the world had better make a wise choice of what side they are on from now on! Remember you are either with or against us! A wrong choice now, here in the states and throughout the world could be terminal! The choice is yours! Just let us know by your actions, not words!

A very nice list of Islamic Darwinism -- or, it may be exactly that the terrorists are trying to do.

If you look back at the history of Islam, you'll recall that it was originally spread in a rapid war of conquest. Those were the glory days, and folks from the Middle East tend to have looonnggg memories. The terrorists are trying to retrace the past, as a means of spreading Islam again.

The problem is troops. Active terrorists number in the thousands, which isn't enough for a world conquest.

There are, however, about a billion Moslems worldwide. The problem is in finding a way to turn them into people willing to fight and die -- at the moment, most Moslems are content to stay peacably at home, raising their families and staying out of trouble.

The best way to turn them, is to make them feel like they have to fight. A few well-placed bombs in China, or a couple of planes in the US, might well be designed to provoke for the various governments into cracking down on Islam in general. The result is an us-vs.-them world -- sort of like the Palestinian refugee camps writ large.

Once they can do that, then the Islamic war can proceed.

I think that's what's really going on here.....

I am from New Hampshire where a heavy girl is considered sexy - so the gene pool here has taken a hit.

Please explain this remark. This coupled with your handle is kind of conflicting. Just curious. Thanks...

How Middle Ages but unfortunately, I think you're right. Usama, son of great wealth, wishing to restore the *purity* of Saudi Arabia or whatever he calls it. Backwards people of a religion that always looks back to the Caliphate days, and not realizing that times aren't quite the same. Sept. 11th did wake us up to the danger we were trying so hard to ignore. Idiots, they all convinced themselves that it would work and allah would cover for them.

I think it's a mistake to discuss this in the past tense.
