Murder is wrong. But, I understand the temptation.
It’s nothing to joke about. How’s Auburn football doing? Roll Tide.
(snip)... According to the signed statement of confessed Abu Sayyaf terrorist Edwin Angeles, he met in Davao City on the Philippine island of Mindanao in 1991 with Nichols, Yousef and other co-conspirators in the 1993 WTC bombing. Angeles, aka Ibrahim Yakub, a co-founder and second-in-command of the Abu Sayyaf Group, said in his handwritten statement:
I certify that Terry Nichols was known to me personally during our meeting with Abdul Hakim Murad, Wali-Khan and Ahmed Youssef [Ramzi Yousef] in [unintelligible] Davao City on Nov. 1991; Aim to establish a group and organize a Muslim and non-Muslim youth for a cause; we will also to [sic] plan for following: bombing activities; providing firearms and ammo; training in bomb making and handling....
Abdul Hakin Murad and Wali-Khan Amin Shah were convicted along with Yousef on September 5, 1996 in the so-called Bojinka Plot, and presently reside in American prisons. Bojinka (Serbo-Croatian for “loud bang”) was Yousef’s code name for his terror scheme to blow up 11 U.S. jetliners in a single day. A variation of the plan called for crashing or “dive-bombing” planes into U.S. buildings, as Yousef’s al-Qaeda comrades did last September 11th. The plot was foiled when the Manila apartment Yousef and Murad shared caught on fire from chemical bomb components they were mixing. Murad was captured in the Philippines following the apartment fire, but Yousef escaped, as he did following the 1993 WTC bombing. With cooperation from Murad and Shah, Yousef was later tracked down and captured in Pakistan, where he was hiding in a guest house rented by a bin Laden company. ...(/snip) ————— http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/705922/posts
As you know, Auburn is not doing well at all this year. I am sad about that.
I am very glad that Coach Saban is doing well after his bout with the China virus. I prayed for his well-being.
Your original comment was in jest, and I shouldn’t have pivoted to football. Auburn always has a good football team.
After we moved to Alabama, we rooted for both teams to do well. I mentioned this to a mover when we left the state. He replied that rooting for one of the teams, because it was in the state, was like rooting for the devil because he was in the Bible. I think he was joking.
