Oh wait, no, that's wrong. Because Zawahiri is dead and so is Bin Laden. Let me reformulate.Who held the seance or went into the trance that brought forth Zawahiri, the already dead Zawahiri, who was then able to channel OBL from wherever he resides in the afterlife, to deliver us this latest threat!Or at least have ABC deliver it? In other words what kind of deception is being pulled on the people with this alleged news report?blah, blah, blah.... Zawahiri attack in the US....Isn’t Zawahiri dead? If he ever existed at all in the form he is presented to us as?And doesn't the Zawahiri story remind you of the Osama Bin Laden fiction? Date Written : Dec 23, 2001"Osama Bin Laden is already dead" - MusharrafOsama Bin Laden. The man who kept right on releasing audio tapes after his death also "Let’s roll!" (Has that been trademarked yet?)
Al-Qaida's leader on Friday marked the anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks by calling on Muslims to strike inside the United States, with big attacks or small, using any opportunity they can to "bleed" America financially.
Bleeding America financially? Haven’t the banksters and Ben Bernanke been doing that for years now?
In an audio message released two days after the 12th anniversary of the attacks, Ayman al-Zawahri said America is not a "mythic power" and that the mujahedeen — Islamic holy warriors — can defeat it with attacks "on its own soil."
An audio message?! Of course. I guess video would be impossible when... you’re a dead guy.
Al-Zawahri, the successor to Osama bin Laden, used the anniversary to argue that the United States can be defeated by targeting its economy. At the same time, he also addressed the ongoing upheaval in the Arab world. Pointing to a power struggle going on within the rebellion against Syria's regime, he warned jihadi fighters in that country's civil war not "compromise" with more secular or moderate rebel factions, who he said would eventually turn against the al-Qaida-linked radicals.
The US can be defeated by targeting its economy? Again, been there done that. Banksters and multinational corporations have already defeated America using economic means.
The message's authenticity could not be independently confirmed. It was posted on a militant website commonly used by al-Qaida.
Have I mentioned how often this stuff feels like reruns of television programming? OBL delivered his messages via unauthenticated audio also.
Al-Zawahri, who is believed to be hiding in the Pakistan-Afghanistan border regions, said al-Qaida sympathizers should stage small attacks or a "big strike" against the United States, similar to the Sept. 11 attacks in New York and Washington, leaving America in "a state of tension" about when and where the next hit would come.
“Hiding in the Pakistan-Afghanistan border regions” Is he in a cave? With a guy name Dave?Is he in a box? With a fox? Flashback : Bin Laden is still thought to be hiding in the mountainous region near the border between Pakistan and Afghanistan. BBC 2009
“Small attacks could be done by only a few or even just one person, while at the same time "we must watch and wait to seize any opportunity to direct a large strike on (America), even if that takes years of patience to do it," he said."We should bleed America economically by motivating it to continue its huge expenditure on its security as America's weak point is its economy, which already has begun stumbling because of the military and security expenditure," he said. "America is not a mythic power and the Americans, after all, are humans who can be defeated, felled and punished."
America is doing just that all by itself. Bleeding the nation and the people for the profiteering of the military/security industrial complex. Is Zawahiri their spokesperson, or what?!
“He urged the Islamic world to "abandon the dollar and replace it with a currency of other countries that are not taking part in the aggression against us."
Isn’t that interesting? Abandon the dollar? And toss out the private central bank too? Yes, abandon the dollar so US and company will attack your nation. See Libya. See Iraq. See Syria.
On Syria's civil war, al-Zawahri addressed al-Qaida-linked jihadis — including many foreign fighters — who have taken an increasingly prominent role in the fight against President Bashar Assad's regime. Their rise has caused tensions with more moderate Syrian rebel factions, even escalating to violence and turf battles. The United States and its allies have said they want to build up moderate rebel factions to reduce jihadi influence.America wants to use "the Muslim people as a means to topple the pro-Iran Baathist regime and install a secular government and peaceful to Israel," al-Zawahri said. It "will try to push the mujahedeen to compromise with the secular factions and the enemies of Islam."
Zawahiri does not like the Shiites. Zawahiri is anti-Iran? Putting him firmly onside with Israel, Saudi Arabia and the US?
"I warn my brothers in Syria against any compromise with those factions. They have to learn the lesson of Egypt," al-Zawahri said. He was referring to the army-backed overthrow of Egyptian President Mohammed Morsi and his Muslim Brotherhood. Regarding Egypt — his homeland — al-Zawahri denounced what he called the "massacre" and 'savage crimes" in the crackdown by authorities on Morsi's Brotherhood and other Islamists. Still, he dismissed Morsi, saying he did not implement Shariah during his year in office and maintained Egypt's relations with Israel. Al-Zawahri said the crackdown targeted not the Brotherhood, but "the Islamic orientation" in general, because "our American enemies realize the dangers of raising the Islamic banner."
Um, Al? Speaking honestly here. From what I have seen, read & written. America and Israel are not at all concerned about the raising of the Islamic banner. After all the AQ banner has been flying amongst the militants in Syria and that hasn’t bothered the alleged “American enemies” in the least. Hell the US is even sending in more weapons to the fighters flying the 'Islamic banner" of AQ, Al Nusra. Not the first time despite media spin. The US has been arming these hired killers all along! And dismissing Morsi? Oddly enough, but not really, so did the US, Israel and Saudi Arabia! Zawahiri is sure pitching for the team here!
The military-backed authorities in Egypt have arrested several thousand Brotherhood members and Islamists. At the same time, the country has seen increasing violence by al-Qaida-inspired militants, who have stepped up attacks on the military and police in the Sinai Peninsula and have begun extending attacks to the capital, Cairo.
AQ “inspired” militants who are attacking the military and police in the Sinai? Hmmmm... Why aren’t they attacking the foreign troops of Israel and the US that are stationed there? If America is the great satan to AQ.Or if Israel is really the enemy?Why are these inspired militants attacking peons, just doing a job?I wonder????
