“Exclusive: Terror Commander: New Attack Will Dwarf Failed Bomb Plot”
July 13, 2007 4:37 PM
Brian Ross and Maddy Sauer Report:
ARTICLE SNIPPET: “As senior intelligence and law enforcement officials met again today in the White House Situation Room to deal with the “summer terror threat,” a top terror commander said an attack was coming that would dwarf the failed bombings in London and Glasgow.
Taliban military commander Mansour Dadullah, in an interview broadcast on ABC News’ “World News With Charles Gibson,” said the London attacks were “not enough” and that bigger attacks were coming.
“You will, God willing, be witness to more attacks,” he told a Pakistani journalist in an interview conducted just four days ago.

Just last month, Dadullah presided over what was termed a terror training camp graduation ceremony in Pakistan, supposedly dispatching attack teams to the United States, Canada, Great Britain and Germany.
In this new interview, Dadullah talked about the ease with which he and his men operate inside Pakistan.”

In Pakistan’s lawless tribal regions like Waziristan, Al Qaeda’s training camps have reopened for business. Video footage shows Mullah Dadullah preaching to hundreds of suicide bombers.
Row upon row of masked men listen engrossed to the words of their leader. “Your bellies, your guts, your flesh and bones will be turned into nuclear weapons”, Mullah Dadullah preaches. Every one of these men has signed up for ‘martyrdom operations’. Mullah Dadullah has watched suicide bombers reduce Iraq to chaos. He plans to import these tactics to Afghanistan on a massive scale. One of the volunteers is Mohammad. He was motivated by the story of an Iraqi woman raped by Americans. He claims he trained alongside recruits from the West; “500 people from many countries, including Britain and America, went through this training”. During the interview he gets a call. It’s the order to go. Unhesitating, he puts on a jacket and disappears. We learn later his mission was aborted but he was killed in fighting. That fits a pattern. Up to now, suicide bombings in Afghanistan have been less effective than those in Iraq, mainly because they’ve been attacking hard targets like military convoys. But if Mullah Dadullah really is about to switch tactics, his army of suicide bombers will undoubtedly claim more victims. (less)
