AL-QAEDA PUBLISHES THIRD ISSUE OF MAGAZINE
SITE Institute
SITE Institute,11/7/2003 - Al-Qaeda has continued to produce its biweekly magazine named Sawt al-Jihad [The Voice of Jihad], with its third issue recently released online. The magazine, which is published by Al-Qaeda members in the Arabian Peninsula, is dedicated to issues concerning the Mujahideen in the Arabian Peninsula.
Each issue of over 35 pages consists of 2 or 3 feature articles which include first hand stories from Jihad battlefields and exclusive interviews with top Al-Qaeda members. For example, in the second issue, Saif Al-Adel, one of Al-Qaedas top military commanders and one of the worlds most wanted terrorists, reminisces about the American attacks on al-Qaeda and the Taliban in Afghanistan, following September 11.
The third issue, which only came out a few days ago, includes a firsthand recollection of a Mujahid who experienced the clash between Saudi security forces and al-Qaeda members in the Al-Suweedi neighborhood of Riyadh in August. The raid, which the magazine calls The Suweedi Battle, claimed the lives of three Saudi security officers.
In another article entitled Our Enemy Within, the magazine intricately details the areas of SaudiAmerican intelligence cooperation in the war on terror, dividing all of the Saudis anti-terror activities into six categories, in an effort to attack Saudi Arabia by portraying the countrys leadership as betraying their people. The categories include:
The magazine also includes wills of Mujahideen who have died in battle, and a large portion of the magazine is dedicated to the religious justification of Jihad through articles and religious rulings of Islamic scholars. The upcoming issue will include the second part of an interview with a wanted Saudi Sheikh who went underground a year ago.
BUH BYE TROLL!!!
You really should stop smoking crack, or ice, or whatever it is that has fried your brain and turned it into a smoking little pile of envious ash.
Get lost troll.
LOL!!
LOL Again!!!
Patty Murray is running ads for daycamp providers.
Al Qaeda is "Al Qaeda"? You mean they're not really Al Qaeda, they're somebody else pretending to be "Al Qaeda"?
You mother should wash your mouth out with soap - or perhaps Tobasco - for insulting the widow of President Reagan.
You never heard of the law of karma, apparently. But it believes in you, and I surmise it's coming to get you very soon.
Thanks, Moderator! He was a nasty little fellow, that one.
This thread is a riot.
To get back on topic...
The very existence of this "magazine" shows that al qaeda is a dangerous force we will be dealing with for many years -- decades. It is clear that their activities are supported by a substantial segment of the political elite within Saudi Arabia and in other areas of the Muslim world.
If anything, the West has given them a 20 year head start after capitulating in Iran and watching helplessly as the Islamist creed spread through the Middle East and Africa. Al qaeda's leaders can point to an almost unbroken string of successes from Iran to Beirut through Algeria and now Nigeria. The US has run whenever they have been faced with the "might" of an Islamist army and Sharia is the law of the land in more and more of the world.
This must have a strong appeal to an educated but politically impotent middle and upper classes in the repressive Middle Eastern nations. UBL was the son of a successful businessman, the hijackers were able to travel to the West for education but would never have any political clout at home.
It isn't dispossesed peasants who power al qaeda, it is an educated class who see it as a way to destroy the current corrupt regimes and replace them with regimes they would control.
I think this is why Iraq is really so important to the success of any campaign to destroy al qaeda. If the US can show the middle classes that they can have political clout and stability within a westernized, non-atheist society, al qaeda's glamour will rapidly decline.
bflr
Maybe they'll switch advertising space with Hot Air America.
So did this Nash mole get clobbered by the mods?
Excellent!! I like the address specifically.
No sooner had I informed the mods of the small but nasty troll invasion, they had put him out of his misery (for now) before I could kick him any more. He had no redeeming qualities, wouldn't you say?
Small and dirty.
I didn't see its replies.
If it insulted Nancy, I would like to put it out of its misery.
It totally insulted Nancy Reagan, but somehow God has been merciful to me and I can't exactly remember what the subhuman said. As soon as I saw the insult, I was really really sorry I couldn't ZOT it in person. With a boot.
A personal Zot Boot!
Sounds good to me!
Dear Sir,
I would like a copy of the Arabic version of al-Quaeda's magazine, as offered by you. Can you provide the URL?
