Islamic State leader urges attacks in Saudi Arabia - speech
Yahoo / Reuters ^ | 11-13-2014

Posted on 11/13/2014 3:11:05 PM PST by Citizen Zed

Islamic State leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi called for attacks against the rulers of Saudi Arabia in a speech purported to be in his name on Thursday, saying his self-declared caliphate was expanding there and in four other Arab countries.

Baghdadi also said a U.S.-led military campaign against his group in Syria and Iraq was failing and he called for "volcanoes of jihad" the world over.

Reuters could not independently confirm the authenticity of the speech - an audio recording carried on Islamic State-run social media. The voice sounded similar to a previous speech delivered by Baghdadi in July in a mosque in the Iraqi city of Mosul, the last time he spoke in public.

The speech followed contradictory accounts out of Iraq after U.S. air strikes last Friday about whether he was wounded in a raid. U.S. officials said on Tuesday they could not confirm whether Baghdadi was hit in a strike near Falluja in Iraq.

Saudi Arabia, the leading sponsor of terror - now it’s about to bite them in the ass.

If ISIS could take out the Saudis, it might play into our hands. After we turn the sand into glass, we can let the Egyptian military have it, stop paying them oil royalties, and stop the export of Wahhabism.

The towelheads face a difficult future.

Their new #1 oil customer for the forseeable future is a country with mafia business practices and 1.5 bil expendable people to enforce them.

The gravy train selling to the US and Euro is gonna be a sweet memory.

If you throw a rock in Saudi Arabia there’s a good chance you’ll hit a Saudi Prince

Saudi Arabia may have opened a can of worms they cannot quickly or easily close back up.

And the worms are pretty toxic as well. The House of Saud may very well find themselves in the same boat as Bashar al-Assad. This time, they shall have the Current Regime now squatting in the White Hut pretty much aligned against them, with the de-facto recognition of the right for Iran to build AND DEPLOY nuclear weapons.

Good, let them slaughter the Saudis. Then when the rubble settles, give the land back to the King of Jordan whose family originally had the Hejaz before they stole it from them.

You can at least be reasonable with the Hashemites, and that says a lot.

I guess Abu Bakr’s not dead yet.

The schadenfreude of having the Saudis with their robes hiked up to their butts, running through the streets of Mecca and Medina in terror at the approach of ISIS would be just too delicious. The wahhabist SOBs deserve every chicken that comes home to roost in the Arabian peninsula.

No. Much of Saudi Arabia is full of poor crazy wahabbis who would like to take them out.

Y’all Aramcons, stay safe and don’t go wandering off in the desert or Al-Khobar.

A cousin of my father (now deceased) was a welder. He had a job with Aramco welding pipelines. He quit and came home after a bunch of Saudis threw rocks at him. He decided he didn't need to be there if that was how they were going to treat foreigners.
