An American member of al-Qaida warned President Bush on Tuesday to end U.S. involvement in all Muslim lands or face an attack worse than the Sept. 11 suicide assault, according to a new videotape.
Wearing a white robe and a turban, Adam Yehiye Gadahn, who also goes by the name Azzam al-Amriki, said al-Qaida would not negotiate on its demands.
"Your failure to heed our demands ... means that you and your people will ... experience things which will make you forget all about the horrors of September 11th, Afghanistan and Iraq and Virginia Tech," he said in the seven-minute video.

Sure seems to be the case.
We grow tired and they don’t?
= = =
They sure seem to play that weakness well.
If one's house catches fire do you continue as though nothing was different?Or do you respond to the threat of destruction and extinguish that threat at once,and then return to normal life?
By failing to call for widespread action,America's leaders insured most people would feel little connection to the events that will change the future.Move along,and leave everything to the professionals has become the manner in which we are told to respond to every event.No wonder many people are frustrated.
So Al Qaeda takes credit for Iraq and Va. Tech. Interesting.

Adam Gadahn issues demands, threats if demands not met
A videotaped message from Adam Gaddahn has been released by As Sahab, the media production arm of Al Qaeda.
In the video, Gadahn, who adopted the Islamic name Azzam the American following his conversion to Islam, presented the United States with six demands.
He threatens that failing to comply with these demands will cause the American people to “- experience things which will make you forget all about the horrors of September 11th, Afghanistan, Iraq, and Virginia Tech”.
The demands include a complete pull-out of American interests from all Muslim countries, withdrawal of support for what Gadahn calls “apostate regimes” in the Muslim world, cessation of support for Israel and a travel ban for US citizens wishing to travel to “occupied Palestine”, end any influence over Muslims in education, culture, values, etc. including a ban on media broadcasts, and a complete and total release of all Muslims in prisons, jails, etc.
A complete transcript of the 7 minute, 57 second long tape follows.

Legitmate demands
A message from the mujahid brother Adam Yehiye Gadahn (Azzam)
This is not a call for negotiations. We don’t negotiate with baby killers and war criminals like you. No, these are legitimate demands which must be met
All praise is due to Allah creator of the heavens and the earth and prayers and peace be upon the messenger of Allah, and his companions, family, and followers until the day of judgement.
Bush. You thought you would be remembered by history as the President who waged a series of successful Crusades against the Muslims. Instead, you will go down in history not only as the president who embroiled his nation in a series of unwinnable and bloody conflicts in the Islamic world but as the President who sent the United States off on its death march towards breakdown and disintegration.
Oh, I’m sure there will be some partisans who believed your lies and some fanatics who shared your murderous Crusader ideology who will remember you fondly and mourn for you when this world is at long last rid of you, just as there were those who heaped praise on your fellow bloodthirsty nation destroying crusaders Milosovich and Yeltsin when they passed on to Allah’s anger but such minority sentiments can do nothing to cover up the ugliness of your crimes, the truth about your Empire of Evil, and the colossal failure of your Global Crusade.
You may or may not be aware of it but today, nearly four years after you hastily declared victory in Iraq, and more than five and a half years after you fell into the Afghanistan trap, things aren’t going too well for your Crusader Coalition. In fact, things are going really bad.
From Kanduz to Diyala, you and your mercenary hirelings and loyal but stupid allies are easy prey for our martyrdom-seekers. In East Africa, where many of the wars opening battles were fought years ago, the blood of your Ethiopian proxies is making the sand run red from Mogadishu to Ogadeen, and from the Levant, Egypt, and the Sudan to the Islamic Magrhib and Nigeria new fronts are being opened and old fronts are being reinvigorated and you and your are feeling the heat.
And, as confirmed by a new poll of Muslims in four major regional countries conducted by the Center for International Security Studies at the University of Maryland, Muslims continue to support and defend the goals, efforts, and sacrifices of their brothers and sisters, the Mujahideen and continue to demonstrate broad awareness of the evil nature of America and the threat posed by it.
This despite your worst efforts to distort out image in the eyes of Muslims and camoflauge your true intentions
In other words, you’re losing on all fronts and losing big time.
Bush, the die has been cast and the blood has been spilled and there is no way to undo what you have done.
There are, however, some steps you can take to curtail your losses and prevent the number of American casualties at home and abroad from rising even higher.
The Champions of Islam, defending their faith and brethren against your evil doing have repeatedly made clear these steps but because I know you live in a cocoon of your own making, and prefer to remain ignorant of what goes on in the world, I shall summarize them here. I strongly suggest you heed and implement them for your own good and the good of your people.
One, pull every last one of soldiers, spies, security advisors, trainers, attaches, and so on out of every Muslim land from Afghanistan to Zanzibar. Should so much as one single American soldier or spy remain on Islamic soil, it shall be considered sufficient justification for us to continue our defensive jihad against your nation and people.
Two, stop all support and aid - military, political, economic, or otherwise – to the fifty-six plus apostate regimes of the Muslim world and abandon them to their well-deserved fate at the hands of the soldiers of Islam. Should you fail to comply in full we will deem it sufficient justification to continue to fight and kill Americans.
Three, end all support, moral, military, economic, political, or otherwise to the bastard state of Israel and ban your citizens, Zionist Jews, Zionist Christians, and the rest from traveling to the occupied Palestine or settling there. Even one penny of aid will be considered sufficient justification to continue the fight .
Four, cease all interference in the religion, society, politics, and governments of the Muslim world and leave us alone to establish the Islamic Shura State which will unite the Muslims of earth in truth and justice. A single word of American protest shall be silenced by a thousand Islamic bombs.
Five, put an end to all forms of interference in the educational curricula and information media in the Islamic world and impose a blanket ban on all broadcasts to our region, especially those designed to alter or destroy the faith, minds, morals, and values of our people.
And six, free all Muslim captives from your prisons, detention facilities, and concentration camps regardless of whether they have been recipients of what you call a fair trial or not. Your refusal to release them will mean the continuation of our just struggle against your tyranny until the last kidnapped Muslim has been liberated.
This is not a call for negotiations. We don’t negotiate with baby killers and war criminals like you. No, these are legitimate demands which must be met. And your failure to heed our demands and the demands of reason means that you and your people will - Allah willing- experience things which will make you forget all about the horrors of September 11th, Afghanistan, Iraq, and Virginia Tech.
And let us be clear. A pull-out from Iraq alone in the absence of compliance with the remainder of our legitimate demands will get you nowhere and will not save you from our strikes.
SO stop wasting your time, and trying to save face with these futile, farsical maneuvers on Capitol Hill and start making some serious moves.
It’s your choice, Bush, cutting your losses and saving some face by getting out now with what you’ve still got, or continuing to coun t your dead and pursue a bloody fight to the very end. Your end, not ours.
By the grace of Allah, and with his help and power, we’ve struck back hard these past several years and with Allah’s permission we shall continue to strike back hard.
This year, next year, the year after that, and so on, until the last Crusader goes home whether waving a white flag or lying in a flag covered casket.
And our final prayer is that all Praise is due to Allah, who gives victory to the believers.

You know, sometimes I wish we were free to deal with these jerks the way the KGB did for the Soviets. Mr. Gedahn would be placing his family in perilous danger with his antics.
Do you really think he would care?

It is truly amazing to see the Islamofascist mind in action. The arrogance of these peopl eis unbelievable. Not even the lowliest coward would agree to such demands.
They did support it overwhelmingly, even 3 years after 9/11. I still think it will swing opinion back if we are hit again. So do most people that watched support erode and the dims War on America start to work. Too many do not even believe in the real danger we face. A huge attack like these guys are promising and it would even get the attention of a Helen Keller.

I hope it’s televised when we send him to meet the Moon god.

What’s the matter Adam, isn’t the faith and moral values of your people up to dealing with other opinions, you sound kinda worried I think.
More evidence that American muslims are no threat at all.
It's a mental disorder, IMO....brought on by inhaling goat flatulence.
Even Youtube will do, I agree.
