Blind Sheik Rahman has much to do with U.S. terrorism By Eric Fleischauer DAILY Copy Editor
Osama bin Laden's expressed loyalty to him demonstrates Rahman's importance to Islamic militants. Last year, bin Laden swore in a videotape that "we will work with all-out power to free our brother, Sheik Omar Abdel-Rahman and all our prisoners in America, Egypt and Riyadh (Saudi Arabia)." One of Rahman's sons, Ahmed Abdul Rahman, was in the videotape and urged Muslims to "move forward and shed blood." The northern alliance announced Thursday that it captured Ahmed, who goes by the name "God's sword." Bin Laden and other Islamic militants issued threats as to the consequences of a conviction of Rahman, and more specifically threatened a violent reaction if Rahman ultimately dies in a U.S. prison.

Maybe the card said "I am God's Sword"

The card said "Dear Mr. Policeman, I am God."

Just to clarify.
