"I Want to Cut Open the Infidels' Throats to Quench my Thirst."
PayPal Providing Online Payment Services for Terror Site

 

     The recent horrifying slaying and subsequent humiliation of four American civilians in Iraq sickened civilized people worldwide.

 

     However, after spending the last 21 months researching Islamic sentiment and terror on the Internet, I am not surprised at what occurred. The Fallujah slayings  typify the hatred radical Islamics have for Americans as well as those who are not of their faith.

 

     I was reminded of this animosity recently when I discovered (www.as-sahwah.com/discus/messages/6/8434.html?1080759157) what in one way was a heartrending (but in another sense sickening) letter from Mohammed Aslam Shaakir, allegedly a young Islamic man, to his father. 

 

     Shaakir was leaving for "jihad," Islamic holy war, and he felt that the only way he could tell his parents was in a letter, as his father had become very upset when he had mentioned leaving for jihad before.

 

     Expressing his desire to go fight for the cause, Shaakir wrote "I want to cut open the infidels' throats to quench my thirst. I want to shed the blood of infidels until Islam reigns supreme. Life and death are solely in the hands of Allah, and to meet death on the battlefield is better than dying elsewhere."

 

     Shaakir explained to his parents that he planned to travel to "occupied" Kashmir, "to discharge my duty and to fulfil my obligation." He told his parents that he hoped they could forgive him for the way he left.

 

     "But you might recall that one day when I asked you to allow me to leave (for jihad) you became enraged. Due to that incident I could not find the courage to ask your permission a second time. I also could not remain at home because the sobs and screams of my Muslim brothers and sisters in Kashmir were always ringing in my ears. I cannot bear to see the cowardly kafir (non Muslims) playing with the honor of our mothers and sisters while we sit comfortably in our homes watching," Shaakir wrote.

 

     Evidently expecting to die for his activities, Shaakir told his father "When you receive the news of my shahaadah (martyrdom) please refrain from wailing and lamenting. This is my will, please act upon it, because a shaheed (martyr) is (in reality) alive and people do not mourn those who are alive."
 
     Shaakir told his father to regard his son's anticipated death as a gift to Allah. He wrote "Dear father, zakah (a portion of one's wealth that must be given to the poor or to other specified causes) is incumbent upon all (rich) muslims and is given on all things, so please regard me as the zakah (www.islamonline.net/english/introducingislam/Worship/Zakah/article01.shtml) on your sons."

 

     Shaakir reminded his parents to be committed to their religion. "Dear mother and father please abide by Islamic laws, enjoin everyone at home to be punctual with the salah, give my brothers an Islamic education and father please grow a beard. This is my last wish, please fulfil it."

 

     Islamic Awakening, which in addition to publishing this letter on its discussion forum as well as a variety of other incendiary articles throughout its site, describes itself (www.as-sahwah.com/donation.htm) as providing "a wealth of authentic Islamic material for our visitors, including audio material, uncensored news, and articles that cover a variety of aspects of Islam - articles which now number over one thousand."

 

     But now, because of alleged attacks on the site by "Zionist extremists," its operators feel (among other needs)  they need to improve site security. "IslamicAwakening.Com is consequently in urgent need of your voluntary donations ... Your donations will only be used for projects directly relating to IslamicAwakening.Com ... and will ... enable us to continue to expand our services and provide beneficial material for our visitors."

 

     More "beneficial material" that encourages testosterone crazed young jehadis to cut open the throats of "infidels" and engage in additional horrendous acts like those witnessed in Iraq's Fallujah.

 

     Sadly, it's easy to donate money to Islamic Awakening. There's no need to surreptitiously wire money to secret bank accounts. All you have to do is click on the button and you can give easily through Paypal (www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr). Yes, Paypal!

 

     I don't know if Paypal is aware of the commentary contained on www.islamicawakening.com. activitie. An e-mail to Paypal requesting comment was not immediately answered. However, the  company was accused in early 2003 of violating the Patriot Act (www.cnn.com/2003/TECH/biztech/04/01/ebay.paypal.reut/)
   
     Reuters reported that a federal prosecutor alleged eBay Inc'sPayPal violated a 2001 anti-terror law aimed at fighting money laundering when it provided payment services to online gambling companies, eBay said in its annual report.

 

     "Silicon Valley-based eBay said it received a letter ... in which the U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Missouri accused PayPal of violating a provision of the USA Patriot Act. The provision prohibits the transmission of funds that are known to have been derived from a criminal offense, or are intended to be used to promote or support unlawful activity."

 

     Islamic Awakening's jihad section (www.as-sahwah.com/discus/messages/6/6.html?1080841695) on the site's discussion board definitely falls into the category of promoting unlawful activity.

 

     With that in mind, you may want to contact Paypal at www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_contact-general and see what the company proposes to do about its relationship with Islamic Awakening. While Islamic Awakening is based in the United Kingdom, it is still worth trying to do something. With lives at stake, it's the very least you can do!
