The insanity over the dreaded cartoons of blasphemy continues to escalate, as an Al Qaeda video calls on Muslims to commit murder in Denmark, Norway, and France, to avenge Mohammed: Al-Qaeda video calls for attacks over Mohammed videos. (Hat tip: LGF readers.)
PARIS (AFP) - A video by an Al-Qaeda member posted on the Internet called upon Muslims to attack Denmark, Norway and France for publishing cartoons of the Prophet Mohammed.
“Muslims avenge your prophet …. We deeply desire that the small state of Denmark, Norway and France … are struck hard and destroyed,” declared Libyan Mohammed Hassan, who escaped from US custody at Bagram airbase in Afghanistan last July.
“Destroy their buildings, make their ground shake and transform them into a sea of blood,” said Hassan, dressed in military fatigues and a black turban, and holding an assault rifle.
Hassan, also known as Sheikh Abu Yahia al-Libi, was one of four Arab terror suspects who broke out of the high-security detention facility at Bagram, the main US military base in Afghanistan.
