Taliban Leader Threatens to Destroy U.S.
XINHUA NEWS | 11/15/01

ISLAMABAD, Nov 15, 2001 (Xinhua via COMTEX) -- Taliban leader Mullah Mohammed Omar said on Thursday a "big" plan to destroy the United States is being implemented, adding he prefers death to be part of

a new government for Afghanistan.

In an interview conducted in Pashto for BBC World Service radio, Omar said the fundamentalist militia is still in control of

four to five provinces in Afghanistan though several major cities have fallen to the opposition.

He claimed the current situation of Afghanistan is related to the "big" plan on destruction of America.

In another development, a Taliban spokesman said Osama bin Laden, the chief terrorist suspect of the September 11 attacks on the United States, has claimed he prefers death to being captured.

Then I would recommend a two-man Banzai attack on Kabul pronto.

Holy crap! That is probably the lamest, most pathetic attempt at psy-ops I've ever seen!

I hope this guy chooses to go out in Hitler-style...by his own cowardly hand.

Mullah Omar will find himself surrounded and in a cave. He will take out his scimitar and rush into a hail of bullets.

Bin Laden will probably commit suicide and his closest men will inter his body deep in a cave and seal him up... never to be found.

Leaving the question... is he dead or still alive?

According to Yossef Bodansky's books, part of the theology of the Islamists is that they have to "warn" their enemy to give them a chance to "repent" before unleashing a terror attack. I think it would be prudent, given this group's history and the history of the region, not to drop your guard. Bin Laden's network is not restricted to those in Afghanistan. As they say, 'IT'S NOT OVER, TILL IT'S OVER.'

I'll bet that it will definitely be a Nuclear attack. We are not ready for it, nor will we be able to recover, if, at all, from such an attack in NY or DC. We would become so vulnerable after such an attack. The markets would collapse. Many people would probably turn against our government. It would be total chaos! I just pray that Osama's group cannot carry it out and fall short.

And this is submission to Allah or to existentialist nihilism and leftism?

The left needs to answer some questions indeed about the origin of terrorism.

Either he is trying to bet the bank on his wild prophecy and crystal ball or he probably met some KGB operatives who told him stories about it. I dunno. In any case the guy's a loser. It's the Northern Alliance stupid.

I agree with you.

IF they really think they are going to die AND they have a dirty bomb or biological/chemical weapons THEN now is when they would use them. These guys have been at this for a long time. It is a time to be extra vigilant. I know we are tired of being on-guard, but lets keep our thinking caps on!

He is going to get death and not be able to destroy U.S. This is a desperate gasp as he goes down for the third time.
