Terrorism: Al-Amriki Calls For Muslims To Greet President Bush 'With Bombs' January 7, 2008 [Please note: Images may have been removed from this document. Page numbers have been added.]

For Muslims To Greet President Bush 'With Bombs' On 6 January, a jihadist website posted several links to a 50-minute video featuring Azzam al-Amriki, released by Al-Sahab Media Production Organization, the media arm of Al-Qa'ida Organization. Al-Amriki delivered most of the statement in English, but spoke in Arabic on several occasions to deliver Koranic recitations, religious rhetoric, and messages to Arabic speaking persons. One of these Arabic statements called on Muslims to greet President Bush during his upcoming trip to the Middle East with "bombs and booby-traps."

The following is the full text of Azzam Al-Amriki's remarks: "O my Servants who have transgressed against their ! Despair not of the Mercy of Allah, for Allah forgives all sins: for He is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful. Turn ye to our Lord (in repentance) and bow to His (Will), before the Penalty comes on you: after that ye shall not be helped. And follow the best of (the courses) revealed to you from your Lord, before the Penalty comes on you - all of a sudden while ye perceive not!" (Al-Zumar (the Groups) 39:53, 54, 55) I tell everyone who hears my voice that, in spite of the trial and tribulations, a bright and promising future is in store for Islamic champions and a bleak and barren future is in store for unbelief and its advocates and helpers So if you are not on the side of Islam or are in the rank of its enemies, then ask God for guidance and make the right choice and repent before it is too late. (Al-Amriki recites Koranic passage mixed with religious language in Arabic, then translates into English): All Praises due to God, who sent down the perfect Koran. (Koranic verse) So they routed them by the permission of Allah, and David slew Goliath, and Allah gave him sovereignty and wisdom and taught him of what he pleased. And were not it for Allah repelling some people by others, the earth would be full of corruption. But Allah is the Lord of grace to the world. (Al-Baqarah (The Cow) 2:251).

And all praise is due to Allah who said: (Koranic verses) If they could only see, when those who were followed shall disown their followers and shall see the punishment and all their ties to each other shall be cut, and the followers shall say if we could only return we would disown them just like they have disowned us, thus will Allah show them their deeds, as regret for them, and they shall not come out of the fire. (Al-Baqarah (The Cow) 2:166-167). And may peace and be upon he who has sent mercy to the world, the role model of the travelers, and leader of the mujahidin, our Prophet and messenger Muhammad and upon his family, companions and righteous followers until the day of resurrection.

In light of the unmistakable defeat of America's in Afghanistan and Iraq, and the crushing blows being taken by its allies, proxies, and puppets around the world, and as America's senior officials shuttle back and forth from one crusader disaster zone to another in a desperate attempt to salvage what remains of America's prestige, and after Bush brought together his loyal puppets in Annapolis to agree on the Judaization of Palestine, we felt it necessary to address the American people and explain to them some of the facts about these critical and fast moving events. Events decisive to the history of America and the world.

The first question Americans might ask is: Has American really been defeated? The answer is yes, and in all fronts American and coalition officials have stated repeatedly that they are unable and unwilling to face the mujahidin in Iraq and Afghanistan militarily, but are still trying to win the battle for hearts and minds which they have also lost in spectacular fashion despite the

1 equally spectacular amount which they have spent in payoffs and propaganda. And they prepare to hand the whole mess over to the local proxies who -- assuming they already have not -- shall soon come to rue the day they sold their souls and religion to the American devil and joined forces with the enemies of Islam and Muslims. As for the refusal of most of your leaders to openly admit defeat to you, the American public, and the contradictory statements they make to the media, this is nothing but another example of official efforts to cover up the disaster, and another example of their low opinion of your int elligence and faculties of comprehension. So, to bring you up-to-date and clear up some of your confusion, let us just take a brief look at the most important of these American defeats.

In Iraq, defeated American generals frantically attempt to figure out how to cut and run without having to admit defeat to the American public, a topic doubtlessly forming the major part of (US Defense Minister Robert) Gates' discussions with (Commanding General of Multinational Force- Iraq David) Petraeus on December 5th. Meanwhile, American forces and their local proxies continue to suffer the heaviest of losses at the hands of the Iraqi mujahidin, foremost among them the Islamic State of Iraq led by the Mujahid Amir Abu Umar al-Baghdadi, who oversees the application of Islamic Shari'ah and directs the jihad against the unbelievers and apostates in the areas subject to his Islamic emirate, which the Americans and their newfound friends in the so-called awakening councils, another group of turncoats, will continue to be incapable of destroying, with God's help and power. In other developments, American officials quickly downplay the remarks of (Iraqi Premier Nuri) al-Maliki, who declared the defeat of Al-Qa'ida. And not the not-so-Great Britain hands over control of its last province in the south.

In Aghanistan, bruised and battered NATO forces, at first willing partners in a coalition they assumed was victorious, are now unwilling to commit more than they already have, and instead are preparing to pull out, despite America's urgent pleas for them to stay on to the bitter end to cover its own retreat, and despite Gates' master document and numerous cross-Atlantic salvage missions and visits to Kabul. The mujahidin of the Taliban and Al-Qa'ida, under the leadership of Mulla Muhammad Umar Mujahid, now have a permanent presence on more than 54 percent of Afghan soil, according to recent crusader reports. And, in the areas under their control, they implement the Islamic Shari'ah, which the Americans and their proxies and puppets came to destroy. And, in a measure of just how desperate their situation has become, the coalition and their (word indistinct) crowned puppet-king could find nothing better to celebrate than the recapture of a single district center in Helmand which their combined forces remained incapable of retaking for ten whole months. Meanwhile (Prime Minister Gordon) Brown of Britain talks about supporting efforts to induce Afghans to give up what he calls violence against the coalition and learn to live in peace with the infidels. This makes clear Brown does not know much about Afghans.

In Somalia, Africa's worst humanitarian disaster, according to recent international reports -- no thanks to the meddling of America and her allies -- America's savage Ethiopian proxies and their Somali hunting dogs suffer defeat after defeat at the hands of Al-Shabab al-Mujahidin, prompting (US Secretary of State Condoleezza) Rice's emergency visit to Addis Ababa to discuss the crisis and the developing threats to America's plans in the Sudan and elsewhere in Africa.

In the Islamic Maghreb, the western half of the crusaders' African disaster zone, the mujahidin of Qa'ida al-Jihad Organization continue to pound the apostate government in Algeirs and its foreign backers, and martyrdom-seekers strike with ease at the symbol of the regime's unbelief: the constitutional court, and at the offices of the United Nations, which continues to insist on portraying itself as an impartial humanitarian organization even as it is used by the tyrants of

2 this world to implement their evil designs and perpetuate their aggression against the world's weak and oppressed.

In Chechnya, the jihad agains t the forces of the Muslim-killing nation-destroyer (Russian President) Vladimir Putin and the traitor Qatira junior (as heard) is in its eighth year. And despite the blockade and betrayals, the mujahidin remain resolute and victorious with God's help and power. And, in a shocking and demoralizing de velopment for the crusader West and a morale-booster for the Muslims, the mujahid Umarov declared an open season on Muslim- killers and enemies of Islam around the world and the crusaders await their approaching hurricane. In Pakistan, dictatorship-lover America tries to persuade (word indistinct) pawns that Musharraf's removal of his uniform and rerun of his stale, tired farce of elections will pacify seething Islamic anger. But the mujahidin are not fooled by such ploys and continue to strike the ruling regime and its armed thugs and spooks in the heart of their containments, garrisons and barracks.

And last but not least, the pivot on which the war today between Muslims and their enemies revolve: Muslim Palestine, which will remain Muslim in spite of Bush and his puppets, in spite of the racist tendencies of the Jewish occupiers and in spite of conspiracies like the Mecca Accord and the Annapolis conference. Meanwhile the occupied territories are awaiting the first visit by the crusader Bush and the mujahidin are also waiting.

(Al-Amriki speaks in Arabic with no translation into English) We raise an urgent appeal to our mujahidin brothers in the Muslim Palestine, the Arabian Peninsula in particular, and the region in general, to be prepared to receive the crusader butcher Bush on his visit to Muslim Palestine and the occupied peninsula at the beginning of January. They should receive him not with roses and applause, but with bombs and booby-traps. God will support you, but will not support your enemies.

(In English) And of course no review of American defeats would be complete without a reference to the number of Bush's crusader accomplices who have been prematurely dethroned due to their complicity in Bush's losing crusade, whether in America like (former US Secretary of State Colin) Powell, (former US Secretary of Defense Donald) Rumsfeld, (former Deputy Chief of Staff in George W. Bush's White House Karl) Rove, (former US Attorney General Alberto) Gonzales, and (former US Under-Secretary for Public Diplomacy and Public Affairs Karen) Hughes, or abroad like (former Spanish Prime Minister Jose Maria) Aznar (Lopez), (former Italian Prime Minister Silvio) Berlusconi, and most recently (former Australian Prime Minister John) Howard.

How, Americans might ask, is it possible that the strongest and best-equipped army on earth has been defeated by lightly-armed mujahidin? The answer is self-evident: right triumphs over might. Even Americans have an understanding of this concept, as attested to by the numerous novels, cinematic productions, and television programs in which the weaker party wins against all odds. And most of you are familiar with the story of David and Goliath, and indeed the story of Moses and Pharaoh and many other similar biblical stories. And I dare say many of you have become familiar with the story of Islam and how the Muslim Arabs conquered much of known world in the space of a few decades and defeated the tyrants of their day with little more than their faith and the clothes on their backs.

Your problem, however, lies in your flawed understanding of what is right and who are the weak and oppressed victims. For the majority of Americans, right is whatever at least one of the three

3 branches of government deems to be right, even if it entails the killing of thousands upon thousands of innocents, or the violation of the values and principles which Americans are supposed to hold dear. For the majority of Americans, right is whatever is deemed to be right by the United Nations Security Council and its American Government-approved resolutions, which have been responsible for the killing of millions of innocent men, women, an d children all over the world. This is a fact, and if you don't believe me, ask Ramsey Clark, former American attorney general, and thousands of others anti-war campaigners in America and the West. For the majority of you, the victims are America and its malignant tumor Israel, although both of them a re nuclear-armed and have at their disposal the arsenals and budgets of the regime in Washington and its western allies and the moral support and powerful influence of the American evangelicals, Christians Zionists, and Jewish lobby, both of which are protected and their interests served by the charter and resolutions of the aforemetioned United Nations. In other words, they are Pharaoh and Goliath, not Moses and David.

Muslims of course are much better acquainted with what is right and who the victim is, and realize that right is not whatever is said, done, and commanded by western presidents, prime ministers, and televangelists. Muslims know what true values are. True values are those values which Americans ridicule and deride and cast doubt upon because they know nothing of them: values like adherence to God's true religion; like liberating oneself and others from oppression; like honor, dignity, and self-respect; like chastity and moral uprightness; like truth in word and deed; like showing mercy to the innocent defenseless and helpless and fighting for them; and like giving one's life for these values.

Here you might protest that you too believe in these values, but once again the problem lies in your definition of these values. Let us take, for example, the first one which I eluded, adherence to God's true religion. Are you adhering to God's true religion when you believe in a non-biblical trio of gods which you euphemistically refer to as a , a trinity whose essence cannot be explained even by the most learned of Christian theologians and which bears more resemblance to the triads of the ancient Egyptians, the Hindus, and other pagans than to the one God of Adam, Noah and Abraham, Moses, and Jesus, who said according to your that the first of all the commandments is: Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God is one Lord. (Mark 12:29)

Are you adhering to God's true religion when you direct the adorations and prayers which are due to God alone to long gone patron , or to angels, or to a so-called son Jesus and the Virgin Mary, even though all of them -- including those of them who are alive in heaven like the angels and prophets and martyrs -- are not only incapable of helping themselves, much less others, but are unaware of your prayers? Where in your Bible, with all its additions, subtractions, and alterations, do you find such things even permitted, much less perscribed? God says in the miraculous Koran (Al-Amriki recites Koranic passage in Arabic, then translates into English): Say to them: tell me about what you call upon beside Allah. Show me what they have created of the earth, or do they have a share in the creation of the heavens? Bring me a book revealed before this, or some trace of knowledge in your support if you indeed speak the truth. And who is more misguided than those who, instead of praying to Allah, pray to those who do not answer them to the day of resurrection and are unaware of their . And when mankind is resurrected after death, the false deities will be enemies of their worshippers and will deny their . (Al-Ahqaf (The Curved Sandhills) 46:4-6)

Regrettably, today -- whether Catholic, Protestant, Orthodox, or otherwise -- is nothing but various combinations of Jesus-worship, Mary-olotry (as heard), iconolatry (as heard), cross-worship, -worship, and even pope- and priest-worship, not to mention blatant in some far-off regions where, rather than oppose and eradicate prevailing

4 pagan beliefs and practices, the churches prefer to assimilate them. This is of course being an ancient since the era of the so-called Ap ostle Paul, who was among the first to adapt the religion of to pagan tastes, and and this is why, for example, you today believe in a trinity and celebrate Saturnalia (the Roman festival of Saturn celebrated in late- December) and the birth of Mithra (an important Zoroastrian deity). The questio n is: how can you be so receptive for the worship of others in addition to God, or instead of God, when the first of the ten commandments -- in which you claim to believe -- is: I am the Lord thy God which brought thee out of the land of Egypt from the house of bondage. Thou shalt have no other gods before me. Thou shalt not make thee any graven image or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the waters beneath the earth. Thou shalt not bow down thyself unto them nor serve them, for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God. (Exodus 20:2-5; Deuteronomy 5:6-9)

Here the opponent might object that many among the Muslims are also guilty of polytheistic beliefs and practices and un-Islamic superstitions, so what is the difference? The difference is that, first of all, genuine Islam continues to be practiced today by the majority of the Muslims, in contrast to Christianity in its original form which became extinct a long, long time ago. And the second difference is that Muslims are actively engaged in reforming their societies by combating these polytheistic innovations and proving their invalidity and incompatibility with the source text. And this is something which Christians are incapable of doing even if they wanted to, because in contrast to Islam, which, as God has promised, continues to be available direct from the pristine and undefiled sources, Christianity's sources have been lost to history, and its stubborn adherants must depend on the unreliable, mistranslated Bible of vague origin, in uncertain authorship, to tell them what God said and wants of them.

This is literally playing with fire, a fire from which there is no escape should one die in unbelief. And this is why today anyone truly wanting to know and worship the One God and save him or herself from the punishment of the fire has no choice but to believe in this final, unaltered, and abrogating message, the Koran, and has no choice but to follow the final prophet and messenger Muhammad in the commands and prohibitions which were revealed to him by God. Indeed, were Jesus, Moses, and the other prophets alive today they would also have no choice but to follow Muhammad -- peace and blessings of God be upon him -- and when Jesus returns at end of the time to kill the anti-Christ as prophesied by Muhammad -- peace and blessings of God be upon him -- he will also rule according to the Koran and will force the followers of other religions to enter Islam or else.

And the fact is, more than anything else, it is our faith in the One God and our confidence in his promise of victory, and reliance on him that is brought us to where we are today, and bled your budget dry and emaciated your military. And similarly it is this baseless and doubt-filled faith of yours which, more than anything else, has defeated your soldiers and leaders. For, if they really believed that they are saved or that God loves them and they are destined for paradise, they would not flee so cowardly from the battle at the first shout of "Allah Akbar" (God is great). But then again, what else should we expect from the misguided western crusader civilization which claims enlightenment and rationality, then lends credence to the claims of a French nun who thinks she was healed by a dead Polish pope, even as it scoffs at us when we say that the living God gives victory to his living slaves who pray to him alone. God says (Al-Amriki recites Koranic passage in Arabic, then translates into English): And your Lord says pray to me: I will answer your prayers. Those who are too arrogant to worship me shall enter hell, lowly and despised. (Ghafir (The Forgiver) 40:60). And God say s (Al-Amriki recites Koranic passage in Arabic, then translates into English): He is the living God, there is no god but He, so pray to him, devoting your worship wholly and sincerely to him. All praise belongs to Allah, the Lord of the world. Say:

5 I have been forbidden to worship those whom you call upon beside Al lah, since there is come to me clear proof from my Lord, and I have been commanded to submit myself solely to the Lord of the world. (Ghafir (The Forgiver) 40:65-66)

You also claim to be liberating the people from oppression. But today, in order to fight the Islamic State of Iraq and the other sincere mujahidin in Mesopotamia, and to try to pave the way for the America-loving, Israel-protecting secular regime demanded by the crusader West and its despotic agents in the region, your government and military is working with former Ba'thists, murderous Shi'ite fanatics, and Mossad (Israeli intelligence service)-backed Kurds, and bribing and arming degenerate tribal militias like the Peshmerga and the so-called awakening councils which commit all sorts of crimes and violate all manners of rights in order to further American and Israeli designs and stuff their own pockets with greenbacks or shekels as the case may be. And today your government and military subcontracts its dirty work to international and local mercenaries who are subject to no law and observe no moral code and have taken hundreds, if not thousands of innocent Iraqi and Afghan lives, most recently slaughtering in their trigger- happiness over 60 elementary school students at a sugar factory in Pavland in Afghanistan, according to eyewitnesses and United Nations' reports.

If these coalitions for the defense of anarchy, which your government and its proxies bring together everywhere they go, are liberators from oppression, then give me the oppressors any day.

I wonder, does it prick your consciences to know that your British allies are handing over control of southern Iraq to what their parliament reports are murderous and corrupt police forces, infiltrated by the Iranian-backed Shi'ite militias who specialize in the killing of Iraqi civilians from all sectarian affiliations, and the sidewalk murderers of allegedly immoral women in line with their twisted, quasi-Islamic, (former Supreme Leader of Iran Ayatollah Musawi) Khomeini- inspired beliefs? Does it bother you that when coalition troops make their escape from the rest of Iraq, they will be handing over large (word indistinct) of Iraqi territory to the same Shi'ite death squads, as well as to the tribal militias whose track record is no better when it comes to the treatment of Iraqis in general, and Iraqi women in particular? This, to put it in terms you can understand, is equivalent to a 160 thousand plus strong occupation army of Timothy McVeigh clones handing over responsibility for the security of Nebraska to police forces made up of (gunman in Westroads Mall shooting in Omaha, Nebraska on 5 December 2007) Robert Hawkins replicas, led by a group of David Koreshes in turbans and black robes -- with apologies to Timothy McVeigh and Robert Hawkins, who were not known to have engaged in practices like waterboarding, gang rapes, murder by drill, ritual self-flagellation, and targeted assassinations of women.

But doesn't it seem strange to you that Mrs Jay Leno and Mrs, George W. Bush and the former Mrs Woody Allen and their friends have failed to express their outrage at this criminal misogynistic behavior, which your government and its allies are engaged in and encouraging in Iraq, Afghanistan, Somalia, and the other countries which their coalitions for the defense of anarchy have torn apart at the seams and turned into a humanitarian disaster far outweighing the disaster in Darfur, which by the way your government also bears at least partial responsibility for? Does it not seem as though your angry celebrity female activists only spring into action when their campaigning does not conflict with your regime's foreign policy, and in fact ser ves its colonialist designs? And why did we not hear an outburst from them at the ugly crimes committed in Chad by the criminal non-governmental organization Zoe's Ark, which kidnapped over 100 Chadian Muslim children from their parents' arms with the intention of selling them in the West as Darfurian orphans to be brought up as Christian slaves?

6 Unfortunately, the sinful Christian operation which the Chadian government only revealed and put a stop to so it could use it for a political leverage is just the tip of the iceberg of the lucrative opportunities which the Darfur crisis has opened up for the warmongers, mercenaries, traffickers, and missionaries who make up the Zionist-Crusader alliance.

And if this wasn't such a lucrative field, how else then to explain why some people turn so violent when they are turned down for missionary training? It is said that one is known by the friends one keeps. If so, then what to say of America, which, in addition to teaming up with the (word indistinct) criminals and psychotic serial killers to whom I referred just now, also both among its friends, allies, and proteges are some of the world's worst dictators and tyrants. People like the neo-Soviet Vladimir Putin, the devil in human form (President of Uzbekistan) Islam Karimov, the Pharaoh of Egypt Hosni Mubarak, and the dictator who is holding onto power by the skin of his teeth, Pervez Musharraf. Even Qadhafi, the syrian Ba'thist regime, North Korea, and, yes, Iran are now increasingly on America's good side after acquiescing to American demands to disarm and cooperate with it in the war against Islam.

This all goes to show that America cares nothing for bringing freedom to the Islamic world, and that when it talks about liberation, it is thinking of, quote, liberating, unquote, the Muslims from their religion, not from the world of the tyrants who repress them with America's blessings. America wants to force upon the Muslims, by any means possible, the aspects of democracy which are incompatible with true monotheism, like secular constitutions, majority rule, positive law courts, and legislative councils which are at war with God and set themselves up as (word indistinct) to him the legislation which his right alone, whereas Muslims need and want Islamic constitutions based exclusively on the Koran and Sunna, Shari'a courts, and Muslim rule in accordance with God's law.

As for the concepts which are mistakenly considered synonomous with democracy but have their origin in divine law and are present in Islam, such as the right of nations to choose its leaders; such as the accountability of rulers to the people and judiciary; and the right of the people to restrain them from oppression and corruption; such as respect for the position and standing of the judiciary and protection of sanctity and human dignity. America wants none of that for us, as evidenced by its open and secret support of the autocratic dictators of our region like Musharraf, Mubarak, (King of Saudi Arabia) Abdallah Bin Abd-al-Aziz, and the rest of the disgusting America-loving Islam-hating club of tyrants and torturers.

Haven't you seen how American leaders and their spokespeople describe them as democrats and valued friends and describe the rigged elections and referendums they run as free and fair even as they impose and lift emergency law according to whim, and sack the judiciary and stack it with loyal (word indistinct) to sustain their hold on power and clamp down on all opposition and dissent to satisfy their tyrannical cravings, and kill Muslims women, children, and ulama (scholars) in the Red Mosque, the Al-Jawfah Mosque, and elsewhere?

This, then, is the tyranny which America fosters and supports worldwide, and this is why we oppose all calls for democracy, whether American or otherwise, not because we hate freedom, as the real freedom-haters so hypocritically claim, but because we neither need nor want this un- Islamic system whose good aspects are present in the divinely-ordained system which we are fighting to establish. And this is why Muslims must not look for help in the crusaders west nor in the atheist east, nor in the international law of the United Nations, nor put their hope in un- Islamic systems like democracy, nor in the policies of parliaments, nor the judiciaries which r ule by other than what God has revealed. No, each Muslim must reform him or herself and those for whom he or she is responsible and must place his trust in God and ask his help, and must

7 place his hand in the hands of the Muslim mujahidin, who are fighting the Americans and their puppets and proxies from Islamabad to Baghdad and beyond. And he must support them with everything he can, because in them is the Muslims' only hope after God -- subahanahu wa ta'alla (praise be to God) -- for deliverance from the satanic crusader-Zionist-Hindu-atheist-apostate nexus sitting on the Muslims' chests.

I don't mean to imply from this review of the excesses and atrocities committed by America's allies, proxies, and puppets that America itself does not have blood on its hands. Of course not. America talks about truth, justice in the American way, and most Americans think that they are the nicest people and greatest nation in the history of the world, yet your government and military have for more than 230 years been one of the world's foremost and most prolific liars, as well as one of its most unjust regimes and one of the greatest violators of America's professed values.

Today, as yesterday, America's armed forces engage in mass-casualty aerial bombings, much of which is now fully automated, as if you are dealing with money transfers and not matters of life and death. And much of which depends on so-called intelligence from satellites and spy planes which -- sorry to say -- do not distinguish between friend, foe, and innocent by-stander, in the same way that white phosphorus and depleted uranium also pick their victims indiscriminately. Today, as yesterday, America's homesick, half-mad soldiers rape, pillage, and murder, then plant weapons and fabricate reports to cover up their evil deeds. And today, more than ever before, America's military and intelligence services are guilty of the most atrocious forms of torture and arbitrary and unlawful detention of innocents in Iraq, Afghanistan, Guantanamo, and elsewhere, including on American soil.

The unspeakable acts the barbaric American interrogators commit in those hellish chambers of torture and cruelty, the horrors and humiliation they visit upon their innocent Muslim victims, and their mocking and desecration of the Islamic religion and persecution of the Muslims for their faith, these atrocities shall never be forgotten nor go unpunished. For the CIA can destroy as many videotapes as it likes, because everything is being recorded by God in a book which records everything in minute graphic detail and whose entries are only erased by repentance. God says in the inimitable Koran (Al-Amriki recites Koranic passage in Arabic, then translates into English): And they only bore malice toward them because they believed in Allah the almighty, the praiseworthy, to whom belongs the kingdom of the heavens and the earth and Allah is witness to all things. Those who persecute and burn the believing men and believing women and then repent not, for them is the punishment of hell and for them is the torment of burning. And those who believe and do good works, for them are gardens under which rivers flow. That is the supreme success. Verily your Lord's seizing and revenge is severe, it is he who begins punishment here and will bring it back in the hereafter, and He is the most forgiving, the loving, the Lord of the throne, the glorious, doer of what He wills. (Al-Buruj (The Big Stars) 85:8-16)

When we talk about the abuse of Muslims for being Muslims, we are not talking about something secret or unknown or something which you, the American people, are unaware. No, you have seen the pictures on television and heard the testimonials and read the documents and reports. And not just that, but the abuse of Muslims has been perpetrated and continues to be perpetrated right under your noses on American soil. The mass detention of Muslims in America following the retaliatory strikes of September 11 is sufficient evidence of that. But it is the indiv idual case studies which are most disturbing. I will mention here just two well-documented examples, which no one can deny. First, the American deniaIf this is how your so-called justice system treats a Muslim born and raised in America and eligible for all the supposed rights

8 accorded American citizens, then it does not take much imagining to figure out how it is likely to treat the average Muslim who is not so fortunate to have been born with US citizenship. And for this reason, and in a symbolic act of protest at America's continuing detention and mental and physical torture of Muslims like Shaykh Umar Abd-al-Rahman, John Walker Lindh, Abu- Zubaydah, and thousands of others like them, and in protest at the cruel and barbaric treatment it metes out to millions of innocents around the world, and in symbolic rejection of the American citizenship, which honorable, decent, and compassionate people are ashamed to carry, I will now proceed to destroy my American passport (he stops speaking for seconds). Yes, this is the original passport. (He tears his passport apart) But do not get too excited. I do not need it to travel anyway. Liberating our prisoners from the blood-soaked talons of the American eagle is a burden which we carry and our defensive jihad against you will remain our duty as long as there remains even one Muslim in American captivity. That is why it is incumbent upon you to take the steps necessary to force the regime in Washington to free each and every one of them wherever they are and what whatever their supposed crime.

One last question for the people of America: Who is it who has led you into the predicament you are in today? I think you know the answer. It is that group of fanatics which views the world through a twisted pre-millennial prism formed by its dubious interpretations of Daniel, , and other books of equally dubious origin. It is that group of fanatics which claims to be pro-life and cries over aborted fetuses and even embryos, but appears to have no qualms about killing children in the womb and even in the cradle on two conditions: that they be Muslim children and that their mothers and the rest of their families be killed along with them in the Israeli air raid or American missile strike. It is that group which talks about ethics and morality and criticizes the media at home but sees nothing wrong with ruining the morals of a generation of Muslims by drowning them in a flood of filthy western media to make them single- minded slaves of their lust and desires and thus further enhance the security of America and Israel. It is that group which feigns distrust and suspicion of the United Nations organizations, even used it as a tool and vehicle for world domination. It is that group which is more Israeli that the Israelis themselves. It is that group which considers Timothy McVeigh, Robert Hawkins, Matthew Murray, and those like them to be depraved criminals, while defending their right to bear arms, but considers the uniformed child killers of the American Army and Marines, and what is known as the Israeli Defense Forces, to be heroes.

It is that group which claims to take scripture literally, but violates every commandments in the book when to do so serves its interests. It is that group whose non-compliance with the biblical and Koranic ban on usury, or transactions involving interest, has finally blown up in their face, or in their faces, in the home mortgage crisis, which is threatening the economy of America and the world. It is this group of militant fanatics which has taken nuclear-armed America to the brink and it is hoping to push it over the edge as soon as possible, in order to hasten the seven year tribulation period, the rapture, the second coming, and Armageddon, not necessarily in that order.

And this group of fanatics is playing with fire and fiddling with the destiny of the entire world. And it is because of this well-heeled, well-connected group of militants that you are now in a battle to death with the Muslims, who would not be fighting you today were it not for the critical and economic influence and imperialist designs of these unholy rulers. These then are your real enemies, who is it not about time you stood up to them? I don't mean that you should elect the so-called opposition party, which is merely the flip side of the same coin of oppression and aggression and which also serves the interests of these fanatics through the Jewish lobby and other avenues of indirect control. No. It is time for you to take the radical, serious, and logical

9 steps which bring results. It is time for you to do whatever it takes to force these fanatic representatives in Washington -- whether Republican or Democrats -- to heed the legitimate demands of the Muslims as spelled out by Shaykh Usama Bin Ladin, Shaykh Ayman al-Zawahiri, and others in a series of messages to you and your leaders.

And it is time for you to disown these militants; money-grabbing fanatics who fill the churches and coffers by scaring people with false prophecies of the approach of the end time tribulations, which may or may not, according to our life time, and whose time only God knows. Whereas Muslims are bound by the divine command to altruistically invite to the truth by preaching God's monotheistic message as brought by his messengers and reminding people of the approach of death, resurrection and judgment which every is guaranteed to experience. So, take the logical step and abandon their corrupt ungodly religion for the simple moderate and reasonable religion of Islam.

The only way to worship God today after the abrogation and alteration of previous revealed blood, and, might I add, the only law they fear, because unlikely pliant manipulable man made the legal codes of to day or the abandoned law of the bible, which is now nothing more than ink on paper.

The living breathing divine justice of Islam threatens their real gots and gains and capitals, threatens their warmongering and threatens their political influence. Hence they are never ending smear campaign intending to give y ou the wrong impression about Islam. This is a matter of an unparalleled importance, so don't wait until it is too late until you have seen the punishment with your own eyes and these charlatans and their ruling representatives have disowned you and all ties between you have been severed upon which you wish to come back to disown them as they have disowned you.

(Al-Amriki recites Koranic passage in Arabic, then in English) Then would those who are followed clear themselves of those who follow (them): They would see the penalty, and all relations between them would be cut off. And those who followed would say: "If only we had one more chance, we would clear ourselves of them, as they have cleared themselves of us." Thus will Allah show them (The fruits of) their deeds as (nothing but) regrets. Nor will there be a way for them out of the Fire. (Al-Baqarah (The Cow) 2:166-167)

In closing, I tell everyone who hears my voice that in spite of the trials and tribulations a bright and promising future is in store for Islam and its champions, and a bleak and barren future is in store for the unbelief and its advocates and helpers. So, if you are on the side of Islam, or are in the rank of its enemies, then ask God for guidance and make the right choice and repent before it is too late. God says in the magnificent Koran: (Al-Amriki recites Koranic passage in Arabic, then in English) Say O my slave who have sinned against their souls despair not of the mercy of Allah, for Allah forgive all sins, barely He is most forgiven every merciful and turn to your Lord and submit yourself to him before they come on to you the punishment, for then you shall not be helped, and follow the best of what is have been sent down to you from your Lord, The Koran and its commandments and prohibitions before the punishment comes on upon you suddenly while you perceive not. (Al-Zumar (The Groups)39:53-55)

I send these verses of God's book to every unbeliever in the hope that through them God will open his of her heart to Islam, and I send them in particular to the thousands of soon to be veterans of America's twin Vietnams, Afghanistan and Iraq, who will have to live with the

10 consequences of their evil deeds for the rest of their lives, and for whom even suicide and death will offer no respite from the pain, sorrow and feelings of abandonment, should they end their lives in unbelief. Listen to me, and listen carefully, before you lose your mind to flashbacks and drug- and drink-induced dementia and before your demons drive you to self-destruction and suicide.

In these verses, God calls out to each and every one of you saying God forgives all sins, so whatever you have done, whatever crimes you have committed, however many innocents you have gunned down, however many idols you worship, God will forgive you for that and change your evil deeds into good deeds, should you simply stop, repent, and enter Islam by saying (Al- Amriki speaks in Arabic first, then in English) I testify that there is nothing deserving a worshipped other than God, and that Muhammad is the messenger of God, and then following your words up with action and worship of and obedience of to him alone. According to the way shown to us by the final prophet of God, Muhammad, peace be upon him. And, God willing, you will find in your Muslim brothers the welcome, sympathy and mostly forgiveness you will never even dream of finding among the Christians and those resembling them.

And if you are among those favored by God to be on the side of Islam, then thank Him and ask Him for guidance, resolve and a good ending, because the hearts of the slaves are between two fingers of the most compassionate, and He turns them as He wills, and for that reason the prayers most often recited by the Prophet, peace and blessing of Allah be upon him, was: O Allah, turner of the hearts, steady my heart on ye religion.

(Al-Amriki recites religious prayers in Arabic, then in English) O Allah, send prayers on Muhammad and t he house of Muhammad as you sent prayers on Ibrahim and the house of Ibrahim, You are the Praiseworthy, the Glorious. O Allah, return over our hearts, steady our hearts on your religion and obedience to you, O Lord of the worlds. O Allah, empower the people of your Shari'ah on earth and aid your state of mujahidin worshippers everywhere, and unite their ranks and goals, and give them victory over their enemy, O Lord of worlds. O Allah, empower the Islamic State in Iraq and the Islamic emirate in Afghanistan, O Allah, protect the leaders, soldiers and UIema of the mujahidin. O Allah, whoever seeks to harm them and Muslims occupy him with himself and throw his blood back on his face. O Allah, aid those aid the religion and place us among them, and desert those who desert the religion and don't place us among them. O Allah, give us victory over the Jews, Americans and their allies, O Strong and Mighty (sentence repeated three times). O Allah, free our captives from the prisons of the unbelievers and apostates and return them to their families in safety, you are the caretaker of that and the one able to do that, and our final prayers is that our prayer is due to Allah, Lord of the worlds.
