CNN is reporting a new press release obtyained by Al Jazeera in which new threats are made against Washington DC and New York. Anderson Cooper of CNN was interviewing the AJ reporter who believed the 6 page statement to be credible and certainly from a senior Al Qaeda member, possibly the official Al Qaeda press office. The message threatened attacks unless the US stops supporting Israel.

Tell them the only things we're converting to Islam are our dogs and pigs. Then send them videotapes of the ceremony!

Without naming the school, lets just say it is the most exclusive private school in NYC. When I was there other students included the children of Tom Brokaw, Robert Redford, and Ralph Lauren. Super liberal crowd.

Smells like ... Dalton?

Al Jazeera may as well be second in command to UBL. It should be treated as such.

It does appear to be their PR Firm, and as such, is fair game.

Let them make their threats with hastily scrawled "Letters to the Editor" in the New York Times. They will be happy to print them, I'm sure.

A statement attributed to al-Qaida threatened more attacks in New York and Washington unless America stops supporting Israel and converts to Islam, an Arab TV reporter who received the unsigned document said Saturday.

Brazen. Dellusional. Then this: The statement also called on Americans to convert to Islam, he said.

I might see the day when Mecca and Medina are glass parking lots.

The President is not free to speak as Falwell and Robertson.

As for Powell, UGH and double UGH.

[SuziQ]

for a bunch of stupid goat-fanciers, they've sure learned how to manipulate the media.

They must have been taking notes on how the Dems do it!

It has been pretty widely reported that British and U.S. Treidents are cruising (needlessly - they could hit anywhere from almost anywhere) near Iraq. OK, those are SLBMs, but...

The statement also called on Americans to convert to Islam, he said.

THIS has me so !@#!$ ticked off I can hardly see straight. Like if we did convert, it would really make a difference to them. I'm actually looking forward to watching these flea-invested self-righteous towel-heads get wiped off the face of the earth.

Say it ain't so!!!! I thought Islam was a 'religion of peace' and it was the 'extremist' Christians that were causing all the trouble.

The religion of Farrakhan is a religion of peace? He's the most racist, hate-filled man I've ever seen.

P.S. I believe Powell as well ;o)
