Dead Man Talking
Released through Al Jazeera, the terror-friendly Arab network that continues trying to gain a foothold in the US, here’s another tedious rant from “Osama bin Laden” calling on all Muslims to kill Jews, take over Iraq, take over Jordan, and wipe out Israel. Same old same old.
And of course, the Gaza offensive was a ‘holocaust’.
“It was clear that some of the Arab leaders have collaborated with the Crusader-Zionist alliance against our people, those whom America calls the moderate leaders,” said bin Laden. “We must disown ourselves from all those” governments. …
It was bin Laden’s second audio message on the Gaza offensive since January, when he urged Muslims to launch a jihad against Israel. It was not possible to verify the message’s authenticity. A spokesman for Al-Jazeera refused to say how the network obtained the recording.
“The Gaza holocaust, amid this prolonged embargo, is an important historic event and a catastrophe that shows the necessity of distinguishing Muslims from hypocrites,” he said. “It is not right that our situation after Gaza will be as it used to be before. There should be serious work and preparation for jihad to fulfill righteousness and defeat evil.”
Bin Laden called on faithful Muslims to support militants in Iraq and said that country should be used as a departure point for attacks on Israel. He suggested fighters use a route from Iraq through Jordan and into the West Bank. He said supporting fighters in Iraq was a “rare and precious chance” for ultimately taking control of Jerusalem. After taking control of Iraq, he said, fighters should then head to neighboring Jordan.
“Jordan … is the best and widest front, and from Jordan the second launching will be toward the West Bank and the borders will be forcibly opened,” he said.
