 RetweetIowahawk: The 'Q' is for 'Quality'

Fri, Jul 11, 2008 at 9:21:39 am PDT

The dreaded Iowahawk has uncovered Al Qaeda’s new plan for world domination—which includes a branding makeover and new corporate logo: The ‘Q’ is for ‘Quality’.

A Message from the Director

Ayman al Zawahiri
Director of Change Management
Al Qaeda Industries Worldwide, Inc.

Hello, valued Al Qaeda associate! Welcome to the inaugural issue of Vistas, the new electronic newsletter designed to keep you informed on all the fast-paced comings and goings within our Total Quality Jihad family.

In a dynamic marketplace characterized by rapid change and unexpected missiles, even the most disciplined adaptive organizations can find it challenging to keep the lines of communication open. Without understanding the strategic “big picture,” associates will sometimes be confused by misleading rumors they read on unreliable infidel blogs and websites like “F*cked Insurgency” and “Jihad Deadpool.” With Vistas, you will learn the real story — of how we are attacking the competitive casualty gap with a paradigm-changing tactical adaptive strategy focused on paradise value optimization. Yes, there will be some changes, but our core leadership mission remains the same one established by Chairman Emeritus Osama Bin Laden when he founded Al Qaeda in his family goat shed nearly 15 years ago: to create a robust, cave-centric, best-of-breed strategic organization for global caliphate management solution services. If we all pull together as accountable subteams, we are on-track to rebuild momentum after the Q4 Infidel elections!

INTRODUCING QAEDANT

As a commitment to our spirit of goal-oriented adaptive martyrdom innovation, I am proud to announce the launch of Qaedant, our new corporate branding identity.

Developed in conjunction with our strategic branding agency FDB&D-Medina, this handsome new organizational logo will help us maintain consumer mindshare and let the world know that we continue on the cutting edge of advanced Jihad technology. Show your team pride buy buying official Qaedant logo merchandise from the attached electronic catalog — including mugs, keffiyas and semtex belts!

The Communications department will be most directly effected by this initiative, as we continue transitioning of our day-to-day public relations efforts to low-cost offshore service providers like Huffington Post, DailyKos, and Democratic Underground.

If those sites aren't receiving their weekly checks from their Jihadist overlords, then they're being gypped.

As we are currently seeking a 17th round of venture funding, budgets are extremely tight, and this will require reducing our internal work team payroll load through adaptive right-sizing on a go-forward basis. Accounting estimates indicate that much of this will be achieved via natural attrition and Apache Hellfire missiles. Still, in order to achieve costing targets, we will need to engage in involuntary outboarding.

I'm surprised; they must be low on money to do that. I'd expect they'd just transfer people from communications to martyrdom operations. Actually, why transfer? Blowing up in public is a form of communication.

"Achmed, I have some good news. You are being promoted."
"Praise Allah! What is my new job? Does it pay more?"
"You now are a special communications operative. You must send a message to the infidels in Islamabad."
"I was hoping for New York or London"
"Our travel budget is too low. Oil prices have skyrocketed, and we can't afford the airfare. Besides, the airlines now charge extra for checked bombs."
"B..Bombs? I thought I was going to send a message."
"You are, Achmed, a message that we will die for our cause and take as many infidels as we can with us. But you get an extra 25% virgins."
"What if I just resign?"
"Well, in that case, we'll give you a special resignation package. Take this to Islamabad as a gift. Take this Bin Laden mask and outfit, and you can retire to our safe house in the tribal areas. If you see any aircraft, be sure to wave."

Hamas redefines arrogance:

Israel accused of conducting 'dirty war'

Hamas officials have denounced actions by Israeli leaders to close Hamas-led establishments in the West Bank, saying Israel is carrying out a "dirty war."

Hamas Prime Minister Ismail Haniyeh said Wednesday Israel was taking part in a "dirty war" targeted at Hamas, the Jerusalem Post reported.

He also said the Palestinian Authority is "participating" in Israeli efforts and noted that PA officials in Ramallah have shut down at least 100 West Bank charities because they believed they may have been affiliated with Hamas.

"This is an ugly crime against humanity," Haniyeh said, noting that the majority of establishments helped needy citizens.

Closing businesses providing resources to terrorists is dirty war. Suicide bombings, rocket attacks on kindergartens, and breeding generations on lies and hatred are still acceptable.

The next step will be to use Network Marketing. You recruit 3 martyrs, they recruit 3 each, etc. Every time one of them blows himself up, you get a virgin override - 2 more virgins for each level you're above him. When you get to paradise, you'll then have about 12,000 virgins.

Terrorist Extremely Annoyed By Delayed Flight

CHICAGO–His flight from O'Hare to LaGuardia delayed more than six hours, Hamas militant and would-be suicide bomber Nidal Hanani vowed never again to fly United Airlines.

"I do not have time for this," said Hanani, seated at a Burger King in Concourse C, a plastic-explosives-filled duffel bag at his feet. "My jihad against the West was supposed to be carried out shortly after takeoff at 8:35 this morning. It is now 2:50 p.m. How much longer must I sit around this airport like an idiot before God's will is done?"

Is the countdown on...?

The Fleet Positions Itself For War Part II

In going through the morning reading, one of the first things I read was the post by Thomas Barnett that declared All systems "go" for war. Dr. Barnett has excellent instincts, but in my study of the Iranian issue, I simply could not see a scenario for war unfold by either the United States or Israel until after we get public statements by the Chinese. I posted some comment to that effect on Dr. Barnett's blog, and thank goodness that blog is moderated, because 10 minutes later I realized the conditions for war are indeed being met. China, and Japan have weighed in.

Following an attack on Iran by Israel, Iran is not going to find much success trying to sink the USS Abraham Lincoln (CVN 72) in the Indian Ocean, but they might have a great deal of success killing you and me here in America. We don't believe for one second that Iran is going to abide by the Geneva Conventions and not intentionally support the killing of American civilians in North America. If war happens, they are as likely if not more likely to attack here than in the Gulf. Whether you like it or not, there was absolutely no way the Democrats, including Barack Obama, were going to leave the possibility open that Israel attacks Iran, and the US gets hit by terrorist attacks inside the US while the FISA bill wasn't passed.

This is a key point. The Democratic Party in mass shifted from a core position. This doesn't happen without keen awareness to some strategic condition. Clearly some outside force has produced conditions which are far outside the scope of national politics, because nothing short of insight and real concern for political survival would Democrats find inspiration for such a massive policy shift with virtually no explanation to its core constituency. This is a major reason, and to Democrats scratching still their heads, an obvious sign we believe that Israel has demanded a time table.

We believe we are in the middle of a twelve week period of diplomacy, what will be the last chance for diplomacy before when we believe Israel will take action. Once the six week negotiation period passes, and the real negotiations begin, the clock is ticking. This time period is not an accident, there is a reason why the six week time period was insisted upon by several nations of the six party talks, including China. The six week period insures that war will not break out during the Olympics, and with this condition established heads of state will be in attendance.

114 Kenneth  Fri, Jul 11, 2008 10:38:19am

More...

You think tensions are high now, you haven't been reading the blog very long. As we noted in early May, the Navy has been positioning itself for an extraordinary level of readiness this fall, and it is obvious enough that even the damage to the USS George Washington (CVN 73) does little to total battle force availability. With the return of the Nassau ESG to port today, the Atlantic Fleet doesn't have any strike groups on deployment, while the Pacific has 3 Carrier Strike Groups and 1 Expeditionary Strike Group at sea. The Lincoln CSG, currently in the Indian Ocean, is to be replaced by late August, which is also around the same time the Kitty Hawk currently participating in RIMPAC 2008 is expected to move to Washington state to prepare for decommissioning.

The Reagan Carrier Strike Group which is currently in the Pacific, and the Peleliu Expeditionary Strike Group which is currently in the Persian Gulf, will both remain at sea well into the fall months. More notably, the time for the next round of naval strike group deployments has come, and the Navy is about to deploy a whole bunch of ships, with a massive reserve trained up and available. As chance would have it, the Europeans will be putting large numbers of naval forces to sea over the next few months as well.

In the Middle East this year Ramadan begins on Sunday, August 31st at sundown and will continue for 30 days until Monday, September 29th at sundown. It is worth noting there is a new moon on August 30th and September 29th. We still see Turkey as a big wild card, Israel can do an end run around the United States through Turkey, and it wouldn't even be the first time this year. This is not trivial, most people are unaware that Turkey has the second largest standing Army in NATO, second behind the United States. It is an experienced, well trained Army with excellent equipment.

Would Iran really be stupid enough to attack a NATO member with the largest standing Army in Europe, who is already on the border and has the means to completely cut off Iran's northern flank? When one considers the dynamics between the US, EU, Israel, and Turkey, don't dismiss the wild card role Turkey still might play in any scenario. After all, no one saw the Syrian incident coming through Turkey until after the fact.

I'm actually indifferent towards the idea of people lining up for something. If you want it, you want it. And if you want to wait in line over night for it, then that's fine. Guess my 'ideal product' just hasn't come around yet so I can't relate. But I did run through my front lawn yesterday when I saw from the sidewalk that the tube containing a map that I had drawn from a video game in my childhood had arrived in the mail and was sitting on my doorstep. Everybody's got their thing, I guess.

re: #114 Kenneth

It's worth remembering that in January, 1917, Russia had the largest standing army in the world. Events later that year negated its potency in external combat. Granted, the Turkish army is motivated, and well-used to its role as the prop for a secular national government. But situations can change. The Turkish national government is a thin reed upon which to base one's plans.

136 'Nam Grunt  Fri, Jul 11, 2008 10:54:19am

137 Kenneth  Fri, Jul 11, 2008 10:55:58am

re: #135 Pullus Iulius

The situations are very different. Yes Russia had a huge army in 1914, but they had to march on foot 1000 miles to get to the front. The Turkish air force, which is the most modern of the Turkish services, can be over Tehran in an hour.

Media Bias rides again...

ABC News Asks 60 Soldiers Who They'll Vote for - Doesn't Report the 54 For McCain

My niece, Katelyn, stationed at Baluud , Iraq was assigned, with others of her detachment, to be escort/guard/watcher for Martha Raddatz of ABC News as she covered John McCain’s recent trip to Iraq.

Katelyn and her Captain stood directly behind Raddatz as she queried GI’s walking past. They kept count of the GI’s and you should remember these numbers. She asked 60 GI’s who they planned to vote for in November. 54 said John McCain, 4 for Obama, and 2 for Hillary.

Katelyn called home and told her Mom and Dad to watch ABC news the next night because she was standing directly behind Raddatz and maybe they’d see her on TV. Mom and Dad of course, called and emailed all the kinfolk to watch the newscast and maybe see Katelyn.

Well, of course, we all watched and what we saw wasn’t a glimpse of Katelyn, but got a hell’uva view of skewed news. After a dissertation on McCain’s trip and speech, ABC showed 5 GI’s being asked by Raddatz how they were going to vote in November; 3 for Obama and 2 for Clinton .. No mention of the 54 for McCain.

Un-fricken' believable lies!
