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.

Thsi is from MSNBC

JUSTIFICATION FOR KILLING CIVILIANS
He added the statement demanded U.S. troops leave the Arabian Peninsula, and justified the killings of American civilians because they pay taxes that finance military operations.

“The American people are the financiers of the attacks against us; they are watching — through their elected senators — the spending of taxes that pay for planes bombing us in Afghanistan, armies occupying our land in the Arabian Peninsula, tanks (used) against the Palestinians and fleets putting Iraqi children under siege,” the statement said, according to Fouda.

Another reason for a tax cut...LOL

And what color is the alert level? Didn't they say that when they get a "credible" threat that they'd raise it accordingly?

Oh, I forgot - it's not between 9 and 5 on Monday through Friday.

The statement also called on Americans to convert to Islam

Haven't you bought your prayer rug?

The message threatened attacks unless the US stops supporting Israel.

In other words, they're going to attack us.

Nuking Mecca would be a really bad idea for many reasons. However, threatening to go nuclear, including the destruction of Mecca and Medina if absolutely necessary, would wake up a lot of people.

If we aimed missiles at Mecca, they'd hate us. But, then again, they already hate us. Perhaps, if their hearts and minds can't be won, then making them quake everytime they hear "America" is the only way to achieve stability.

How about "Leave us alone or we will kill you, oh hell, we will kill you even if you leave us alone, we will kill you for our amusement",,or is that to long?

...justified the killings of American civilians because they pay taxes that finance military operations.

I'd like to remind them that every single Iraqi just voted for Saddam Hussien in the last Iraqi election. Two can play that game.

[null and void]

Time for a pre-emptive strike. And, I'm not sure if I care too much if we hit the wrong terrorist base.

Do 'em all, that way we'll get the right ones...

[SamAdams76]

Q. Why are we killing the terrorists, shouldn't God be judging the terrorists?

A. Yes, of course. We are just arranging the appointment.

[ChadGore]

What a yank.

[BiffSchneider]

Wasn't their a story about Big Bargain World about a year ago? Or, was that some other discount type shop? Something about money being laundered in the Carribean.

[SCalGal]

I think I've just joined the "Nuke Mecca" gang.

Welcome aboard!!

[cajungirl]

So I know everyone is in a good mood what with our being threatened and all, but I want to know, am I foolish? I cannot take these threats seriously, I reallly don't feel one ounce of fear. I think they are just flapping their gums, what with no teeth an all. But really, does anyone take these things seriously now? Am I in denial?

A federal judge ordered Maali held without bond

Good to hear. Didn't I read a day or two ago that a Middle Eastern terror suspect arrested in Detroit had been given bond by the liberal judge - and promptly disappeared.

He, too, was "tied into the community," and in fact his brother-in-law had put his house up for bond. Fat lot this guy cared. But since Jihad Inc. had probably already cut a check to the brother-in-law, I guess it doesn't really harm anybody except Americans.

Oh, yes, them.

[Mr. Mojo]

If we aimed missiles at Mecca, they'd hate us.

I have new for you -- We already have ICBMs targeted at Mecca, and the informed in Arab world know it.

Al Jazeera is Al Qaeda television.

I'm convinced it's paid for directly by AQ; why aren't we just ignoring them!?
