© 2003 WorldNetDaily.comA message posted on an Internet forum today by an al-Qaida-linked group calls on Muslims to flee New York City, Washington, D.C., and Los Angeles ahead of major terror attacks in those cities, intelligence newsletter DEBKAfile reports.
According to DEBKA, the Jeddah-based Al-Islah society posted the message, which reportedly accuses the United States of predetermining its end (doom) by its policies:
"The Jews rule the Pentagon by remote control and (are the cause) of Muslims being killed in every corner of the world. The United States should therefore expect more blows."
The message was signed on behalf of the al-Bayan (The Threat) movement by "your warrior brother, Abul Hassan al Khadrami," the intelligence newsletter said.
DEBKA reports a Muslim expert identified the name of the signatory as belonging to a Yemeni from Hadhrameuth, an area where al-Qaida chief Osama bin Laden enjoys substantial tribal support.
There is precedent for terrorists using forums to telegraph their operations.
According to the report, last November, Jeddah-based fundamentalist forums addressed a message to an al-Qaida member, saying "whoever understands, understands; whoever knows, knows, but we are marching toward an operation that will take us to Paradise."
Three days later, the Mombasa Paradise hotel was blown up, killing 12 Kenyans and 3 Israelis and a failed shoulder-launched Strela anti-air missile missed an Israeli airliner at the Mombasa airport, DEBKA reports.
If they manage to do anything they will do a suicide bomb thing on a seaport. According to some of their posts on a yahoo group they are sharing a training manual from Khattab. What a joke.
The only thing the chechens know how to do is plant land mines and set up explosives. They like to watch buildings fall in and tanks blow up. It's the simple mind thing about the chechens, you see.
Khattab was successfully poisoned by the Russians in only one attempt. All he knew about was explosives, and admittedly he knew them well since he lost a leg to them. But the more complex aspects of being at war were too deep for him so the Russians easily outsmarted and killed him, with hardly a second glance. The only hard thing was finding him in the jungles of the barbaric chechnya.
These people are no different in the long run. Still living in the stone age and probably just as impressed with big booms and lots of things flying around in the air.
With some luck they'll blow themselves up underwater accidentally. Like Khattab, stepping on his own planted land mine. Some hero. They have memorials to him everywhere you look. Go figure.
So don't let these bozos scare you. You have a much greater chance of getting killed on the freeway driving to work.
Or maybe sink a ship? Khattab was successfully poisoned by the Russians in only one attempt. All he knew about was explosives, and admittedly he knew them well since he lost a leg to them.
I think you are mistaking Khattab with Basayev. Basayev lost a leg while crossing a mine field during his escape from Grozni.
Oh wait, I miss this, ok, never mind, Israeli teenagers at play again.
I wonder how 1 million man Russian army doing in Afghanistan? Or maybe how Iraqi divisions in Jordan doing in battles of Israel? Anyone have any other good Debka memory?
Ah, that explains all the antenna.
Thank you for the correction. Khattab was missing part of his hand, not his leg. I was confusing them ( imagine that!). The scum is so thick around them both and all...
