It was narrated from Abu Hurayrah that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said:

“Towards the end of time, hardly any dream of a Muslim will be false. The ones who have the truest dreams will be those who are truest in speech. The dream of a Muslim is one of the forty-five parts of Prophethood.

Dreams are of three types: a good dream which is glad tidings from Allaah, a dream from the Shaytaan which causes distress, and a dream that comes from what a man is thinking of to himself…” (Sahih Muslim 2263)

And the disbelievers planned, but Allah (God) also planned.

And Allah is the best of planners.

(Quran 3:54)

Khurasan: The Land of Narrow Mountain passes, vast open spaces, thick forests, caves, and the Pamir maze ‘the roof of the world’ which opens the (hidden) gateway to the rest of the middle world.

The narrow mountain passes for preventing huge armies. The vast open spaces to expose the enemy and give him no place to hide. The thick forests and caves to hide your own men and weapons. And the amazing Pamir maze – territory of the Muslim fighters, where you can hide, regroup, or simply travel to any country of your choice, without any borders in your way.

The land Allah (God) would choose for the preparation of the ‘Battles of the End of Time.’

Chapter 1 – the boy’s Dream

It all began in the 1960s, when a young boy called Osama had a dream.

He was born to a father who was Yemeni, and a mother who was Syrian, he himself born in Arabia - all three holy lands of Islam.

Throughout his childhood and teenage years, he was a good Muslim, obedient to his parents and preferred studying religion during his childhood, more than playing with the other children.

A student of knowledge narrates:

“I was in al-Madinah al-Munawwarah at the house of a Scholar who used to lecture at the Prophet’s masjid. We had just arrived at his house when someone knocked on the door. The Shaykh returned with a person of luminous and honorable appearance who was about 80 years old.

“The host welcomed him and requested the Tafsir of a few verses from the Qur’an. We quietly listened to him while the guest Shaykh recited a few verses, and then he gave the Tafsir of those verses. By Allah, I had studied a number of Tafsirs, but that Shaykh was a sea of knowledge. When he completed his lesson, the host invited him for a meal, but he declined politely, and we came to understand that he was fasting.

“Eventually, the guest asked for permission to leave, but the host insisted, ‘Until you narrate to us the dream of Shaykh Osama bin Laden once more, you will not get the permission to leave.’

“The Shaykh smiled and asked, ‘The dream that Shaykh Osama bin Laden had when he was 9 years old?’ The host replied in the affirmative.

This is how that Shaykh narrated the incident:

“’I was a close friend of Muhammed bin Laden, the father of Osama bin Laden. Many times I would be in his company. And many times, I used to visit his house regarding work related to construction. During the discussions, our talk would be disturbed by the playing of his children, and then he would ask them to go out and play.

“’But I was surprised to see that he would always ask one particular son to sit beside him. I asked him, “Why don’t you let this son of yours to play with his other brothers? Is he sick?”

“’Mohammed bin Laden smiled and said, “No, there something special about this son of mine.”’

“’When I asked his name, he said, “His name is Osama, and he is 9 years old. Let me share with you something strange which happened a few days ago. My son woke me up few minutes before the morning prayer and told me, ‘Dear father, I want to tell you about a dream that I had.’ I thought he must have had a nightmare. I made ablution and took him along with me to Masjid.

“’“On the way, he told me, ‘In the dream, I saw myself in a huge, flat area. I saw an army mounted on white horses moving towards me. All of them were wearing black turbans. One of the horsemen, who had shiny eyes, came up to me and asked me, “Are you Osama bin Muhammed bin Laden?” I replied, “Yes.” He then asked me again, “Are you Osama bin Muhammed bin Laden?” I again replied, “Yes, that is me.” He again asked, “Are you Osama bin Muhammed bin Laden?” Then I said, “By Allah, I am Osama bin Laden.” He moved a flag towards me and said, “Hand this flag over to Imam Mahdi Muhammad bin Abdullah at the gates of Al-Quds.” I took the flag from him, and I saw that the army started marching behind me.’

“’Muhammed bin Laden said, “I was surprised at that but, due to business at work, I forgot about the dream. The next morning, he woke me up just before the morning prayer and narrated the same dream. The same thing happened on the third morning also. Now, I began to worry for my son. I decided to take him with me to a knowledgeable person who can interpret dreams.

“’“Accordingly, I took Osama to a person of knowledge and informed him about the whole incident. He looked at us with surprise and asked, ‘Is this your same son who had the dream?’ I said, ‘Yes.” He kept staring at Osama for some time. My concern multiplied. He comforted me and said, ‘I will ask you a few questions. I am sure that you will answer them truthfully.’

“’“He asked Osama, ‘Son, do you remember anything about that flag which that horseman gave you?’ Osama replied, ‘Yes, I remember it.’

“’“He asked him, ‘Can you describe it, how it was?’

“’“Osama said, ‘It was similar to the flag of Saudi Arabia, but its color was not green but black, and there was something written on it in white color.’

“’“He then put the next question to Osama, ‘Did you ever see yourself also fighting?’ Osama replied, ‘I commonly see such dreams.’ He then asked Osama to go out of the room and do recitation of the Qur’an.

“’“Then that person of knowledge turned towards me and asked, ‘Where is your ancestry from?’

“’“I replied from Hadramawt in Yemen. Then, he asked me to tell him something about my tribe. I replied that we are related to the tribe of Shanwah which is a Qahtani tribe from Yemen. He then cried out the Takbir loudly and called in Osama and kissed him while crying. He also said that the signs of the hour are near.

“’“’O Muhammed bin Laden, this son of yours will prepare an army for Imam Mahdi and for the sake of protecting his religion, he will migrate to the region of Khurasan [Afghanistan]. O Osama ! Blessed is he who will do Jihad by your side and undone and disappointed be he who leaves you alone and fights against you.’”’”

1979 – 1989 – a new Islamic century.

The Afghan Jihad against Russia:

'Who is stronger? Allah (God) or Russia?'

- Abdullah Azzam inspiring the Muslim fighters in Afghanistan.

1979 was the first year of the 15th century of Islam. According to a saying of God's Messenger Muhammad (peace be upon him) - God would revive the religion through individuals (arabic: Mujaddid) after every century.

"Allah shall raise for this Ummah (nation) at the head of every century a man who shall renew (or revive) for it its religion." – saying of Prophet Muhammad. (peace be upon him)

—Sunan Abu Dawood, Book 37: Kitab al-Malahim [Battles], Hâdith Number 4278.

With the Islamic Ottoman Caliphate having collapsed in 1924, Islam was in need of a revival. The Communist Russian war against Afghanistan would be the cause of this revival through two main men – Abdullah Azzam and Osama bin Laden.

Abdullah Azzam:

Abdullah Yusuf Azzam was described as 'the reviver of Jihad in the 20th century' in the Times Magazine. Born in Palestine, he knew how it felt to live under occupation. He was a serious and dedicated boy from a young age, participating in the Jihad against the Israeli occupation of Palestine in the 1960s from Jordan. But things there weren't to his liking, since most of the Palestinian resistance during that period consisted of nationalists who never took the religion seriously, playing cards and listening to music instead of praying to Allah (God) for victory. One day he rhetorically asked one of the 'Mujahideen' (fighters) what the religion behind the Palestinian revolution was, to which the man replied, quite clearly and bluntly, "This revolution has no religion behind it." This was the last straw, Abdullah Azzam left Palestine, and went to Saudi Arabia to teach in the universities there.

When he heard of the Jihad in Afghanistan, he rushed to it and dedicated his entire life to calling the Muslim world to its aid. He himself promised never to leave it, hoping to establish an Islamic Caliphate there - according to God's command, or die there in the process. He would work with Osama to provide services to the fighters (called: the Bait ul Ansar [House for the Helpers].) He travelled all over the world, calling on Muslims to rally to the defence of their religion and lands. He wrote a number of books on Jihad, such as Join the Caravan and Defence of Muslim Lands. Moreover, he himself participated bodily in the Afghan Jihad, despite the fact that he was in his forties. He traversed Afghanistan, from north to south, east to west, in snow, through the mountains, in heat and in cold, riding donkeys and on foot. Young men with him used to tire from such exertions, but not Abdullah Azzam.

Abdullah Azzam made Jihad in every possible way, responding to the call of Allah: "Go forth, light and heavy, and strive with your selves and your wealth in the path of Allah. That is better for you, if only you knew." [Quran, 9:41]

He reared his family also, in the same spirit, so that his wife, for example, engaged in orphan care and other humanitarian work in Afghanistan. He refused teaching positions at a number of universities, declaring that he would not quit Jihad until he was either martyred or assassinated. He used to reiterate that his ultimate goal was still to liberate Palestine.

He would always say: "Muslims cannot be defeated by others. We Muslims are not defeated by our enemies, but instead, we are defeated by our ownselves."

When Osama bin Laden went to Afghanistan, he met with Abdullah Azzam and worked with him.

Osama’s first visit to Afghanistan:.

During his late teens, Osama heard of the Russians invading Afghanistan in a war which would kill more than a million Afghans. Like many other Muslim Arabs, he collected donations and travelled there to support the Jihad (resistance struggle). He met Abdullah Azzam there, with Azzam providing the services for the Arab fighters and Osama getting funds from the Saudi kingdom. Abdullah Azzam wanted to protect the Muslims of Afghanistan, and had plans to make Afghanistan into an Islamic state through which a true Islamic revival could begin. The tyrant puppet regimes in the Muslim world had prevented this since 1924, and although Saudi Arabia had implemented some Islamic laws, it was still subservient to Western powers. This would later (in the year of 2000 and beyond) be a key point in al Qa'idah's (AQ) strategy to remove all Western influence before establishing a full Islamic state.

During this time, America was in support of the Jihad, and so was Saudi Arabia. It was America's wish to remove the only superpower competing with them by any means possible, even if it meant giving expertise training and weapons to poor Afghans. As a result, Afghans were trained in techniques of guerilla warfare, bomb making, acts of sabotage, and weapons training.

The American's didn't know, but this would be a cause for their downfall in the future.*

Russia loses:

Many battles took place against the Russians, commanders like Jalaluddin Haqqani told many stories of miracles and how they only had 3 British rifles from (the Afghans had won as spoils of war against the British colonialists during the 1800s), and how they would shoot a bullet and it would explode an entire Russian tank miraculously. This caused many Afghan communists (working for the Russians) to surrender, and the group got more modern Russian weapons as a result.

The Afghan communists were not always happy with being ruled by Russians, and Jalaluddin narrated another event where a firefight occurred between Jalaluddin Haqqani's fighters and the Afghan communists. Suddenly an Afghan communist shot and killed his own commander, freeing the rest of the Afghan communists from his control, they then joined Haqqani's battalion and their influence expanded from there.

It was narrated that;

This would later be known as the Haqqani network, which would soon become the strongest Afghan guerilla force in the early 21st century.

Jalaluddin had a close friendship with Abdullah Azzam during the Russian Jihad, and continued to have influence over the Haqqani network in the 90s and 2000 years. Jalaluddin Haqqani later retired due to old age and has -since the American-led invasion- now passed on the command to his experienced and battle hardened son Sirajuddin Haqqani.

The early Taliban:

Young men like Omar (later to be known as Mullah Omar) also participated in the Jihad against the Russians, during a battle - one of his eyes had been shot out, but that did not lower his morale in the least.

These young men were from religious families who were taught that it is necessary to fight an invading enemy, even if he takes a hand span of Muslim land.

These men were warriors by blood, chivalrous, brave, never submitting to any ideology after accepting Islam from over 1000years ago, a characteristic they shared with their Arab brothers. Afghanistan was known as the 'Graveyard of Empires.' The next 30 years of continuous war against world superpowers would put this title to the test.

Russia is defeated:

Russians had alot of air firepower which devastated the Afghans, entire towns would be destroyed by violent bombardment. The Russians wanted to overpower the resistance of the Afghans so their Communism could dominate through Central Asia (Arabic: Khurasan) and expand for world domination, a race they wew having with the Americans.

The Afghans were able to seek protection in the mountaineous terrain of the Hindu Kush (a natural protection against air bombardment). But they were still unable to counter the air attacks of the Russians.

America provided the Afghans with Stinger missiles, advanced surface to air weaponry which could shoot down aircraft. This would be the pivotal weapon to defeat the Russians main source of air strength.

Abdullah Azzam and Osama bin Laden continued to provide services to the Arab and Afghan fighters, they themselves participated in many battles. The Afghans felt honoured that the Arab 'sons of the Sahaaba' (helpers of Prophet Muhammad) were aiding them in this struggle against a world superpower.

Many miracles happened during these battles, with birds hovering over missiles to inform the Muslim fighters of the missiles direction, other times tanks ran over men and bullets were shot at them, yet they survived without injury. Their killed smelled of perfume out of this world (which the Arab and Afghans said was a smell from Paradise where their souls now resided), while the killed of the communists smelled rotten and was often abandoned, their corpses eaten by dogs. (More miracles can be read in Abdullah Azzam's book: Signs of al-Rahmaan [the Most Merciful (God)] in the Jihad of Afghan.)

Block the Supply Routes Strategy:

The Arab-Afghan Islamic resistance against the Russian's learnt a new technique to defeat the superpower. They knew the communists within Afghanistan depended upon the supply line of weapons and fuel which entered into Afghanistan from neighboring countries from Central Asia (now under USSR control), they would target this supply line continuously so that the communist forces within Afghanistan would run out of supplies, which would be the cause of their defeat. They did exactly this, in addition to many Afghans turning against their communist commanders and shooting them in their backs.

Now with the destruction of Russia's air power through Stinger missiles, the ambushing of Communist supply lines, and the murder of Communist commanders within Afghanistan - the Russian superpower lost its power, morale and financial capability, being drained of a billion + dollars through the hands of the poorest people in the world. This would soon be the end of the Russian Communist movement (known as the USSR) and the Red army.

The USSR never fully recovered after this war, millions of Afghan warriors and innocents had been killed, and Afghanistan had after 10 years of violence been freed from external domination. It would be this same strategy which would defeat occupying Western forces in Afghanistan, 20 years later.

Part 2 - (1989-2000) – the Foundation of the Movement.

The Founding (Qa'idah) of AQ (Al Qa’idah) & The Afghan Civil War.

After the Russians had left Afghanistan, there was chaos everywhere. All the different tribes and groups which had collectively fought against the Russians now competed for their own power. Corruption became widespread, checkpoints spread everywhere to tax travellers for their money. Travelling one mile would lead you to a checkpoint where you had to give money to a warlord, another mile later another checkpoint owned by another warlord would stop you and interrogate you for your money. If you never had men, guns and trucks, you could do nothing except pray for safety. Within this chaos, the religious groups who had formed during the Jihad were still scattered, and the tribal groups who only wanted power were extremely dangerous, doing mass murder, rape and plunder everywhere.

During the Russian Jihad, Abdullah Azzam had discussions with Osama and the Arabs as to their organisations Foundation (arabic: Qaa'idah) and how they should deal with the distinct gap between the Arabs and Afghans.

Azzam had the opinion that the Arabs should merge with the Afghans long term, and work together to establish an Islamic Caliphate (Khilafah) in Afghanistan. Osama slightly differed in his opinion and said the Arabs should be trained as an elite force who will spread their guerilla tactics and ideology of a global Islamic resistance to other Muslim lands. He felt that a Caliphate couldn't be guaranteed long term unless the strengths of the Muslims globally were united first. This difference between them remained and no real conclusion was reached. In 1989, Abdullah Azzam was killed by a bomb in his car on his way to Friday prayer with his two sons (many blame it on the communists who still had a presence in Afghanistan.)

Osama and the Afghani-Arabs:

Many Arab fighters decided to stay in Afghanistan out of fear of returning to their home countries, which were ruled by dictator Arab governments who were puppets for Western colonialist powers.

The Arabs who did return to their home countries were tortured in dungeons as they were a 'threat' to the tyrant regimes. The Arabs who stayed in Afghanistan married into

16 the Afghan and Pakistani populations, which was a rarity since Afghans do not usually marry outside their own race. These Arabs would be known as Afghani-Arabs.

Another group of Arabs had a different agenda, they were known as the Egyptian Arabs. Of them included the likes of Ayman al Zawahiri (the leader of AQ today [2012]), Saif al Adly, and other Egyptians who had some military experience, being inspired by Syed Qutb's teachings of a revolution to topple the tyrant Arab regimes who were enemies of Islam and puppets for Western interests.

These men thought of ways on how this new land could be a launching pad to overthrow these regimes and replace them with an Islamic governance. These regimes had tortured them severely in the dungeons of Egypt before the Afghanistan war during the coup of Anwar Sadat who had signed a humiliating peace treaty with Israel, but now they had the freedom in this land to plan ahead for the years to come.

1990-1996:-Osama's return to Saudi Arabia:

Osama returned to Saudi Arabia, and since he belonged to a respected family, he was able to settle back comfortably into his old lifestyle. But after experiencing the successes of the Afghan war, he felt that the Muslim world could become freed from external influences and the glory of Islam could return if the Muslims put the effort into it. He wasn't satisfied to return to his old lifestyle, he wanted to make a change.

Saddam Hussein was in Iraq and was threatening to invade countries surrounding him. Although an Arab nationalist, he allowed people to learn about Islam in Iraq (which would effect the future American-led Iraq war of 2002). Saddam threatened to invade Kuwait, and Osama was aware that next to be invaded would be Saudi Arabia.

Osama told the king of Saudi Arabia (King Fahad) that they should resist Saddam Hussein's invading forces, and with the king's permission - Osama would provide Saudi Arabia with 100,000 veterans from Afghanistan and Muslim lands. Osama respected the kings' of Saudi Arabia during this time, calling them Wali al Amr (protectors and commanders [who should be obeyed].) The king did not take him seriously, and instead allowed the USA American forces to enter into Saudi Arabia. This shocked Osama and made him angry; 'How can he allow the disbelievers to enter into the land of the two Holy Mosques (Haramain)?' (of Makkah and Madinah) he thought.

'Expel the polytheists out of the Arabian Peninsula' was a saying of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), with the righteous 2nd Caliph Umar taking the Jews and Christians

17 out of Arabia too. So why did the American disbelievers army, including women veterans need to protect the holiest land of the Muslims? Couldn't Muslim men do this easily enough for their own religion!?

All these thoughts passed through Osama's mind, it made him extremely bitter against the king of that time. He needed to do something to counter the new American occupation of the most holy land of Islam - Arabia itself.

The Move to Sudan.

In the mid 1990s, the ruler (Hassan al Turabi) of Sudan was offering citizenship to any Muslim who wanted refuge in his country. Many Afghani-Arabs moved to Sudan due to the intense civil war in Afghanistan.

Osama left Arabia and travelled to Sudan and started investment projects there. His main focus was in business, farming and to live a normal Islamic lifestyle of going to prayers daily. He was also a constructor like his father, and built high roads, construction projects, investing into the country in the millions of dollars. He hadn't forgot about the Western, American-led occupation of Muslim lands. He was thinking of ways to defeat them, and he would soon find a solution.

War Begins: ‘Black Hawk Down’

A small battle in Somalia occured against the Americans, and the Afghani-Arabs with Osama (now unofficially known as al-Qa'idah al Jihad [the Foundation of the [global] Jihad [struggle]]) helped the Somali people. The US came with helicopters, and AQ learnt a new tchnique - shoot the tail of the helicopter with a RPG (Rocket Prepelled Grenade) and it will down the helicopter. It was a difficult trick and it worked, and would be later known as a unique AQ tactic (the famous movie 'Black Hawk Down' was inspired by this.) The US helicopters retreated.

Osama realised that the US was like a 'paper tiger' (scarey only in looks but their soldiers are usually afraid/weak as paper). This made him more daring and confident in his agenda of removing western occupation from Muslim lands.

He tried to buy nuclear weapons, since they are the best weapon as a deterrant against other nations. After spending a few million dollars of his own money, and being tricked a few times, that still didn't deter him from his agenda of getting deterrent weapons, and although he wasn't successful, it increased his experience in weapon trading. In the future he would even sell American bombs which didn't explode on his men onto international buyers (like the Chinese) sometimes for hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Long term Goals:

Osama's next long term plan was to target sensitive areas of US interests. He targeted the US embassy in Kenya and a year before September 11th 2001, he targeted the American Cole ship on the sea of Yemen, where his men travelled on a small boat filled with explosives, and detonated right through the entire ship, killing many US Army cadets.

Osama was enticing America, he expected US forces to invade another Muslim country to cause another Jihad revival amongst the Muslims (similar to what happened in Afghanistan.) But nothing happened.

He had tried to seduce America into wars in Somalia, Yemen, Kenya, but nothing happened in retaliation from the Americans. America was aware that a man called Osama bin Laden had declared war on America publicly, but why weren't they responding with war?

Saudi Arabia revokes Osama’s citizenship:

Saudi Arabia was also aware that a citizen from their country was threatening America, and so they sent people who were close to him to tell him to stop. Osama was about to say something which might have changed history, when one of his Egyptian AQ brothers whispered something in his ear, which made Osama firm on his decision of war with America. This is why many Saudi officials blame Osama's Egyptian brothers for his long term committment to the war cause.

Saudi Arabia finally decided to revoke his Saudi citizenship, and took his passport away from him. This made him even more bitter against the Saudi regime, who he felt were now proving themselves to be even more pro-American, when they had already given America permission to economically and physically occupy the most holy of Muslim lands.

Whilst in Sudan, there were many attempts by some groups to assassinate Osama, once a man shot inside the mosque where Osama usually prayed. Osama was ill that day and wasn’t in the mosque. Some would call this luck, while others would say it is God’s plan.

Emergency evacuation from Sudan

The Leader of Sudan told Osama you have to leave Sudan suddenly (possibly because of US threats to the Sudanese government to expel him).

The millions he had invested into that country had gone to waste, he had to quickly sell what he had at extremely poor prices (with no profit) and left Sudan in a low class airplane provided by the Sudanese.

He emigrated back to Afghanistan, with hardly any money in his possession. He felt disappointed that the people around him who he had supported had all betrayed him.

Returning to Afghanistan:

Yunus Khalis was a leading commander within Afghanistan during the 80s and 90s, he welcomed Osama and gave him a place to stay because of Osama's generosity to the Afghans in the 80s.

Throughout the entire 90s, infighting was still going on in Afghanistan. But a new group had emerged, known as 'the students' - the Taliban movement.

Osama didn't know who they were at first, but when he heard rumours they were an Islamic movement, he wanted to ally his organisation (AQ) and men with them in some way.

The Taliban:

 Mullah Omar – the leader of the Taliban. Shot in his right eye during the Jihad against the Russians. Mullah Omar, the leader of the Taliban tells his story of how the Taliban began. Him and some students were tired of the civil war, hearing of women being kidnapped,

raped and killed and people being robbed off their wealth – him and the students (Taliban) decided to give up their religious studies for the greater good of enjoining the good and forbidding the evil in Kandahar (the birthplace of the Taliban movement). Seeking the help of God, and borrowing a motorbike and truck (in 1994) – they travelled and fought against corrupt warlords and thieves to bring stability to the people in their neighborhoods. Once their influence increased, the local people supported them. They then extended their efforts to other areas until gradually their influence had spread over all of Afghanistan by the year 2001. Then the American led war started against them, they fled to the mountains to regroup and fight back.

American Hubris:

After the Afghan war with Russia, USA had gone through a stage of 'imperial hubris' (meaning: pride and a big mistake of perceived invincibility because they were now the worlds only superpower.) They had left Afghanistan in its totality, not even putting an embassy there (through which they could know (or 'spy') indepth about what is happening in the country.) They had only a handful of spies there, so for 5years after the defeat of Russia, USA was completely blind in its pride as to what was happening in Afghanistan. This would be one of the causes of its downfall in the long-term future*, some might say by chance, others will say by Allah's plan.

A Mullah in Pushto (Afghanistan's national language) is a Student of religious knowledge (and Maulvi is a Scholar). Mullah Omar left his last year of studies to free Afghanistan from corrupt warlords and to establish a strict Islamic law to control the violent warlords who would not submit to a soft law. The Islamic law the Taliban followed was 'an eye for an eye, a life for a life.' No-one would dare harm another person except that they were at the risk of being punished with an equal harm by the harmed. This worked extremely well under Taliban rule and brought stability and peace at levels unmatched in Afghan history.

The Taliban gradually took over all of Afghanistan by the year 2000, except some areas which were controlled by Ahmed Shah Massoud (whose small army would later be known as the Northern Alliance).

Shah Massoud was a Tajik (non-Pushton Afghani) commander from the Shi'a sect of Islam He fought against the Russians, and was actually praised by Abdullah Azzam during the 80s (Massoud made his anti-sunni stance known later only after the Russian Jihad).

He was the only obstacle which prevented the Taliban from having complete control over Afghanistan, that was - until Osama and AQ came along.

Ahmed Shah Massoud – the shi’a commander of the Tajik Northern Alliance. An enemy to the Taliban 

Al-Qa’idah (AQ) and Taliban alliance.

The men with Osama were loosely known as AQAJ (al Qa'idah al Jihad) meaning: the Foundation of the (global) [future] Jihad) in ideology and determination, and the men with Mullah Omar - the Taliban.

Both sides would benefit each other through united Islamic ideals, both groups wanted an Islamic state, but the Taliban had a local national ambition while the AQ would have a global ambition.

Since Massoud was the only obstacle in the Taliban's way of a stable national Islamic state, Osama promised to help him and even pledged allegiance to him (bay'ah) as the Ameer al Mu'mineen, Omar (the Commander of the Faithful).

There were many battles between the Afghani Taliban, and the Northern Alliance (Massoud's army). The Northern Alliance is known to have said that fighting the Taliban was fair and balanced, but the AQ fighters were lethal. The secret behind this is because many old generation Afghans were happy with a long life and dying in the presence of their families, whereas many Arabs were wishing for martyrdom and did extremely daring acts just for this* - making them lethal fighters to the death.

(*Example: The AQ volunteers pitched bright white tents in the Russian Jihad so the enemy could see them and bombard them, since they desired martyrdom so much.)

The End of Massoud:

Since the Taliban had a greater and an ever increasing influence in Afghanistan in the late 90s, the USA (CIA - Central Intelligence Agency) wanted to prevent this influence from expanding too quickly. To do this, the CIA gave financial aid to Massoud and his Northern Alliance group. This groups main role was to oppose the Taliban's agenda of an Islamic state, and for Massoud to setup his own government within the capital and to make a more stable Afghanistan which was under US influence and control.

Massoud was a cunning enemy, he would often get money (sometimes upto half a million dollars) from the USA, and then make excuses as to why he wasn't able to achieve anything with it. The Afghans are known to be clever and shrewd people who never listen to an outside authority.* This would be another big downfall for the future fall of the USA. (It is a known fact that many Afghan forces who work now for the Karzai government are not obedient and often disloyal to their NATO and USA instructors, sometimes not even doing things in their own favor out of stubbornness, and wanting to prove their independence.)

The Taliban therefore faced an enemy who was continuously being funded by the USA, with more funds - Massoud could get more men, a greater threat to the Taliban establishing a stable Islamic state. So Osama promised a solution to the Taliban.

Massoud was known to be extremely eloquent in portraying to the western media that he was a freedom fighter who wanted stability in Afghanistan. All the western funds were directed to him, and he led the Northern Alliance. How could the Taliban stop him?

Osama had an idea. He had some Arab men who were from the Islamic Maghrib (countries including; Morocco, Tunisia, Algeria). It's known that these lands were taken

23 over by the French in the colonialist era. So Osama picked a few men wisely (they were probably white skinned) French speaking and would pretend to be Journalists who would gain the trust of Massoud.

After staying with Massoud's men many times, they gained his trust. They would not be allowed to take any weapons (they were journalists afterall) and they were given permission to interview him directly. These men had hidden a bomb in the camera they would use to record their interview with Massoud. So when the interview started, the camera was activated, and *bang* - everyone was killed (including Massoud, his men, and the interviewees who chose this as a martyrdom operation). There was an outcry amongst Western media, but Osama's men had given victory to the Taliban without even losing alot of men, for this - Mullah Omar was extremely grateful to Osama and AQ.

With Massoud gone, the Northern Alliance scattered and fled as they could never get an influential leader like him again.

The Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan (2001):

In the second half of the year 2001, the Taliban was the only real power left in the country, governing with Islamic law - there was alot of stability now in Afghanistan.

Mullah Zaeef narrates two events to show the fairness and justice of Taliban rule in Afghanistan before the American led invasion:

My Life with the Taliban - [by Mulla Zaeef] Page 76-78: http://kalamullah.com/Books/Life%20With%20The%20Taliban.pdf

Mawlawi Pasanai Saheb was known for his impartial judgments and rulings. Whoever was brought before him, even if they were relatives or friends - would receive the same treatment and the same judgement. He followed God’s orders as specified in the Islamic shari’a law. I remember many of the cases we dealt with, but two in particular stick out;

Story #1: There is a place near Pashmol called Shukur Hill where most sentences against murder cases were carried out. When a convict was led up the mountain to receive his punishment we would secure the area. Twan, also known as Qurban, had slaughtered a man with a knife in cold blood in my childhood village of Charshakha. He was brought to Shukur Hill.

Many muslim fighters had gathered there, and the father of the victim and his family were waiting for him. When Twan was brought onto the empty square the people started to beg the father of the victim for forgiveness, as was the custom in these cases. The Ulema’ explained the virtue of forgiveness, other people offered money, and some commanders pledged weapons. One of the commanders offered fifty Kalashnikovs and some money on behalf of the condemned man, but the father of the victim could not be convinced to forgive Twan. The on-duty personnel gave him a knife and Twan was brought to him with his hands and legs tied. The father of the victim walked over to him slowly, rolling up his sleeves. He first knelt on the ground then uttered Allahu Akbar loudly and put the knife on Twan’s neck.

Taking back the knife and raising it in the air, he started to speak. “Look! God has given me this power. No one can release you from me but God. You are the one who brutally killed my son without any lawful reason. Based on the shari’a, God has given me the right to take revenge for my dear son or to forgive you for sake of God. Forgiveness pleases God more than revenge. I forgive you, so that God will be pleased with me. Now it is he who shall take revenge when the final day comes”.

He threw the knife away and at once people were crying out the takbir, others were firing guns and the people were rushing forward to kiss the hands and feet of the father. Someone untied the hands of Twan but he could not move or talk for a full five minutes. People congratulated him on this unexpected chance for a new life and told him that he should devote himself to Islam and the worship of God.

“God has shown mercy. Regret your deeds and never even think of actions like these again”, he was told. I was convinced that the man would never commit another crime, but he soon killed again. I also heard that he himself was killed in a robbery a short while later.

Story #2:

Another case that Mawlawi Pasanai ruled on was that of the murder of an entire family and their guest. A man called Mohammad Nabi from Girdi Jangal camp had gone to the house of the baaja or husband of the sister of his former wife. He was warmly welcomed by his wife’s sister and her husband. Another guest arrived and dinner was served when night fell and it became dark outside. Mohammad Nabi and the other guest decided to stay overnight and settled in the guestroom to sleep, while his baaja and her family retired to their rooms. When everyone was asleep, Mohammad Nabi, a trained butcher by profession, took a cleaver and beheaded the other guest in his room.

Then he proceeded through the house killing the entire family room by room; there were eleven victims in total: a woman, two men and eight children including a six- month old baby. Before he left the house, he chopped all the bodies into pieces and brought them down to the basement. He was arrested in Panjpayi Camp in Baluchistan by the Muslim fighters and brought to Kandahar, where he confessed to the crime but never explained why he did it. During the court sessions and while in prison Mohammad Nabi would often say that he should be killed, but never told us why he had butchered the family of his baaja. More than once he said he wanted to be killed. In his dreams he could see the small children, their limbs in his hands, blood everywhere. Every night they would come to him and ask him why he had so brutally killed them. “What did we do?” they would ask him. Mohammad Nabi could not sleep; “my heart is heavy, please have mercy and kill me soon”, he often told the judge. He was condemned to death and the sentence was due to be carried out at the riverside between Kushkak and Nelgham. Relatives and friends of the family had come with their guests.

They had selected two men one from each family to avenge the deaths of their relatives. The two men were both brothers of a victim. When Mohammad Nabi was brought before them at the riverside no one asked for forgiveness. Neither the mullahs nor the people said a word, even though Mawlawi Pasanai Saheb had instructed the Ulema’ to ask for mercy and to pray for him. Not even the friends or family of Mohammad Nabi had come to collect his body. I went to Judge Maw-lawi Saheb. I asked for permission to have Mohammad Nabi perform two rak’at [2 units of prayer] and that he should be instructed to utter the kalima [testimony of Islamic belief]. With the permission of Mawlawi Saheb I went to Mohammad Nabi. I told him that the relatives had arrived and that they would avenge what he had done. Now would be the time for him to perform a last prayer towards the Ka’aba and proclaim the creed of faith. But Mohammad Nabi looked straight at me and said, “Just kill me now. I can still see those limbless children in my hands. I can’t pray or proclaim the creed of faith”.

I was surprised and astonished by his words. I begged him to reconsider. I tried to change his mind for a long time but all he would say is, “Just kill me”. Finally Mawlawi Saheb told me to leave him alone. I was pleading with him until the very

last moment when he was shot by the heirs of his victims. He died without praying or uttering the kalima. The victims’ families became ecstatic after he was shot; people screamed and threw their turbans in the air. For me, Mohammad Nabi was proof that a cruel man will die without even being able to pray or proclaim his faith. If a man is not guidedby God himself, no experience or amount of suffering will show him the right path.

The people were happy that after 20years of non stop war, the country was now much more stable, although it was still one of the poorest in the world.

The Taliban was grateful to Osama for using his men to get rid of the head of the opposition. But Osama had even more long term goals which hadn't been achieved yet.

Part 3: (2001 - 2005: 9/11 era & the New World Order.

With only one superpower left in the world (the USA), a new world order was emerging at the beginning of the years 2000 +, giving unstoppable power for an elite 1% of the world’s wealthiest people (often labeled as Zionists) to control the economy of the entire world through US expansion and domination.

Events leading upto 9/11: -

AQ had targeted sensitive areas like US embassies (in Kenya) and war-ships (the US Cole in Yemen), aswell as US war Helicopters in Somalia. Osama bin Laden and Ayman al Zawahiri (both leaders of the AQ) knew the USA wouldn't leave Muslim lands so easily, considering that they had billions of dollars’ worth of USA army bases in Muslim lands, and most of the resources like oil, gas and food would be sold to the West at dirt-cheap prices by the puppet governments which had been installed in Muslim lands since the colonialist era (from around 200 years back). Therefore a small amount of attacks would not remove the USA and Western powers out of the Muslim lands so easily.

Osama felt Western forces could only be removed by opening the eyes of the masses of Muslims to the fact that the Western powers (headed by the USA) were occupying Muslim lands, and this could only be shown by enticing the Western forces to physically start war on Muslim lands, which would cause a Jihadi awakening in the minds of the Muslims to defend their lands, like had happened against the Russian superpower just 20years ago.

Long AQ goals: target US interests and entice them to your stone-age lands, this would make battle more dificult for Western forces, and luring the Western forces in a territory of people who know their own land and hiding places well.

September 11th 2001:

Osama had not been successful in enticing the USA to start a war in Sudan, Somalia, or even Afghanistan.

With the USA being on the other side of the world, and with AQ having no long range missiles or war planes, Osama planned to attack the USA, the 'great satan', he would target the 'snakes head.' Once the snakes head had been killed, all corrupt regimes in the Muslim world, and the state of Israel would naturally weaken and soon collapse. So targeting America's economy (the strength of the USA) was Osama's main priority.

The reason why Osama wanted to attack New York and the Twin Towers was because it is a financial hub, and it is close to the Pentagon (which was also a war target.) Osama argued that if innocents were killed, then hundreds of thousands of Muslim women and children had been killed or starved to death by the USA already (the previous wars waged by the USA against Iraq (i.e. the Gulf wars) had set sanctions which starved half a million Iraqis to death.) He felt that the Quranic verses such as: Fight the polytheists altogether LIKE how they fight against you altogether (Quran 9:36) balanced the equation. He would say that 'if they have killed 100,000 of our innocents, then we have an equal right for inflicting similar damage.' In fact Israel had already used this philosophy in their own acts of war against the Palestinians.

The only option left was the 9/11 attacks. This would be the crucial attack which changed world history for the future to come.

Conspiracies regarding 9/11 – the Answer: Pausing here we see alot of conspiracies, alot of them have legitimate basis. For example; some towers exploded as if bombs had been installed in them prior to the aeroplanes crashing into the buildings. How does this fit in with Osama's plan? Was he an agent like many people claim?

The answer is simple: Osama had been planning these attacks for many years before they took place, they weren't even a big secret, and plenty of reports from American sources make it clear that many CIA members were aware of these plans and did not do anything to prevent these attacks until only after the attacks had taken place. Many FBI members would even crticize the CIA for staying quiet and not informing them that a few years before the 9/11 attacks, the perpetrators of the attacks actually entered into the USA for flying lessons.

Even though this may seem like another conspiracy, it seems that many high level members of the CIA are working for the 1% (of the world's extremely wealthy business men who support the Zionist state of Israel.) This seems clear as we progress later on in the book, but right now two points are clear;

1 - These CIA men did not get fired for hiding such a big secret which damaged American national security and killed thousands of Americans,

2 - Isn't it surprising that 9/11 would open the doorway to full-scale global war in the Middle East, which will soon allow for the Greater state of Israel to form? (spanning through Palestine, Syria, Egypt, and Iraq.)

As the twin towers fell through AQ hijacked planes, (and also exploded through hidden zionist bombs) - members of AQ heard about the event on the radio from Afghanistan, many celebrated and thanked God in prostration.

'Wherever you may be, death will reach you, even if you are on tall building fortresses.' (Quran 4:78)

Osama was blamed by president Bush straightaway. Afghanistan was the new target, and no-one could say anything to stop the American war machine from reactivating.

Does this make Osama an agent?

No, rather - the zionist members who had infiltrated into the CIA had let this happen without preventing it beforehand, they knew that a man called Osama bin Laden was waging war against the USA in the previous years (the US Cole ship in Yemen which had been bombed, the Somalia black hawk down and Kenya USA embassy bombing.) Yet they had not stopped him because these small attacks weren't legitimate enough to the American public for a full scale, long-term war.

These zionist CIA members wanted a major attack like 9/11 to happen to give legitimacy to the zionist plan of taking over the Muslim majority Middle East even more. By allowing 9/11 to happen, and by installing hidden bombs in the towers prior to the attack made the incident even more shocking to the world. This shock is what would give legitimacy to all the American-led wars which would take place indefinitely for the years to come.

Osama's plan and the Zionist plan was the same - to start a fresh war in the Middle East, but both had different intentions - one wanted Islamic revival, while another wanted more imperial dominance over Muslim lands. The zionists did not consider Osama a real threat, since he only had a few hundred men with him and the poor Taliban. Yet in the future - these 300 men would change the geo-politics of the entire world (just like the 300 people of Badr during the time of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) had changed Islamic history for future generations to come), even to the surprise of the Zionists.

The upcoming years would tell how a small group of only 300+ men would evolve from being a small nuisance and percieved puppets of zionist agenda, to a global ideology which is now unstoppable.

Taliban toppled, and the Battle of Tora Bora:

'Allah made us a promise (of Victory), and Bush promised us (defeat), we will soon see whose promise comes true.'

- Mullah Omar (before the American led war in Afghanistan).

A cruise missile struck and destroyed the AQ training camps in Afghanistan. October 2011 would be the month of America's assault against Afghanistan. Within a short span of time (a few months), the Taliban's regime had fallen entirely, and Afghanistan once again had become a war zone (now for the 3rd decade running). Karzai was now quickly placed as the leader of Afghanistan by the USA in the capital city, with the Taliban forces fleeing to the countryside areas. Most Talib's were normal Muslims who simply wanted Islamic Laws to be applied to the Muslim people of Afghanistan - they had fled to their families or to the mountainous areas. With the huge amount of air attacks and bombs flooding all over Afghanistan, the leadership of AQ and Taliban fled to the Hindu Kush mountainous areas which provided protection against bombs and air attacks. So long as these people didn't light a fire in the snowy mountain regions, they could hide and not be detected.

Tora Bora Mountain - the Lion's Den:

Osama had built a den (called: the Lion's Den [ma'sadah]) in the mountains of Tora Bora during the war against Russia in the 80s. This was on the North East of the Afghan- Pakistan border, a massive cave he had dug with construction machinery to provide him and his men protection. About 1000 people could stand in this cave.

Osama would return to this cave once again with his men for protection and strategy, and this is where another battle began - the battle of Tora Bora.

Osama is seen

Reports from American sources suggest that prior to this, American air-forces had seen Osama and were ready to target him but the permission to attack was always delayed by the people of command.

Ex CIA members like Michael Scheuer were extremely angry as to why permission was always delayed, but no convincing explanations were given.

Conspiracists suggest that permission was not given because; by keeping Osama alive, the zionist agenda of dominating other countries -in the future- would remain legitimate. If Osama was killed then, the future wars against Iraq and other 'threatening terrorist nations' would not be legitimately justifiable to the public.

The Battle

When in Tora Bora, Osama had just above 300 men with him (see: 'You are the 2nd people of Badr'). Osama's 300 men fought against Afghan mercenaries payed by America in addition to American special forces. Many of the Afghan mercenaries complained about the bravery of the men with Osama in the Tora Bora mountains, saying - they wanted to fight till death, and if they were close to being captured - they would throw a grenade close to themselves so they are not caught. (They would do this on the basis of statements of classical Islamic scholars who say that fighting to the death is better than the humiliation of imprisonment, and that death is better than being caught and then being tortured - which will make you reveal the secrets of the Muslims is worse.)

The American forces had begun the offensive against Iraq simultaneously as the war in Afghanistan, just as Osama wanted. He wanted to stretch and disperse US forces out as much as possible, and America with its hubris (percieved arrogance) had fallen into this trap blindly. This would be another cause for the future downfall of the USA.*

The men in the Tora Bora mountains continued the intensive fire fight until there was a stalemate (no side winning). Osama told his men that he would leave and emigrate to another mountaineous area when the fighting had paused, and that they should to when able.

The men in the Tora Bora mountains had an idea - they told their enemy that they had surrendered, and that they would come out of the Tora Bora mountains the next morning. The pro-american Afghans agreed to the ceasefire (they needed the break). It was during this night that Osama and his men escaped across the Tora Bora mountain and into the Pakistan border.

While America would invade and bomb all of Afghanistan, Osama and his men would be safe in the Pakistan border to plan their next strategy.

Future Outcome:

The only outcome of this American-led occupation would be that;

. the Taliban would temporarily be out of power and in the future come back as an even more powerful force, . anti-Western and American sentiment would grow in the Muslim world, . America and Europe would fall into a Trillion dollar+ debt, and . a new generation of Taliban and al Qaeda would be born.

All to the advantage of Osama's long term goals. This would be another cause of the downfall of America in the near future*.

Prophet Muhammad in a Dream: “You are the 2nd people of Badr”

Here is an excerpt from an interview of Qari Badr-uz-Zaman Badr (who spent three years in prison and was recently released from Guantanamo). It was aired on ARY ONE in a program called ‘Views on News’ in May 25 2005. It is in Urdu but a brother translated it to English.

THE TRANSLATION: “We were busy in continuous worship and people (of Guantanamo) were close to Allah (SWT). Many people dreamt of the Prophet (saw) with glad tidings that freedom is near.

And Prophet Eesa / Jesus came and said that those who call themselves "nasraani" [Christians], those people are not on the correct path. are astray and will be destroyed.

A Mujahid told me that he was asleep in Bagram during intense winter. Esa/Jesus (as) came in his dream with the Qur'an in one hand and the Injeel [Bible] in the other. The mujahid said he wanted to embrace Easa(as) and kiss him. But Prophet Eesa(as) stepped back. Someone announced this is a Mujahid from Cuba, Guantanamo. So Eesa (as) shook my hand and he kissed me on my forehead. He took my hand in his and said to me do not worry for freedom is very close and the nasaraa (Christians) will be destroyed. AND THAT I AM COMING.

He (mujahid) says when my hand was shaken, I woke up. It was not warm (in the room) but the mujahid was perspiring (sweating)…”

“Then an Arab mujahid dreamt of Prophet Muhammad (saw) and the Prophet (saw) told him you are ‘ahl al-badr’ [the people of Badr]. So the mujahid said the people of Badr have passed away. So the Prophet (saw) said ‘antum min ahl al- badr at-thani’ [You are the second people of Badr] and that your status is not much less than that of the people of Badr ”.

Note: the people of Badr are the companions of Prophet Muhammad, the 300 best Muslims in the entire Islamic history. 300 Muslims defeated the polytheist enemy of Quraysh although they were less in number, similarly there were 300 men in the army of David vs Goliath who were the best of the Israelites when they were obedient to God.

Similarly Prophet Muhammad prophesized that near the end times (nowadays) – there would be people almost equal to the rank of his companions in reward. True dreams like this affirm that reality.

Part 4 - (2002-2005) – Pakistan Afghan-Pak border:

The border between Afghanistan and Pakistan is over 1000km long, which means that security and attempts to stop people from travelling through the porous border is almost impossible. In addition to this, the people living on the border of Afghanistan and Pakistan don't recognise this border since they have been living there for centuries, possibly even thousands of years. So a border made by the colonialists one hundred years ago means nothing to them.

The people who live in the border region do not even recognise the rule of the Pakistan government over their territory. They are semi- autonomous, they make their own tribal laws and if the Pakistan government tries to force any law on them - they fight back with weapons. Because of this, the Pakistan government has not dared to control this part of the border. In return the people have not done any harm to the Pakistani government.

The tribal people of Afghanistan are like their brothers across the border. All these groups of people are known for their intense bravery, gheerah (protective jealousy), and independence from outsiders.

If we zoom out even further and look at the East of Russia; Uzbekistan, Chechnya, Xiang Xang (now part of China), Turkmenistan, and certain parts of Iran - we see some similar traits amongst these people too. All this area is known as Khurasan. Most of the Prophecies concerning the end times are related to Khurasan, as will be seen in a later chapter.

Settling in Pakistan:

As Osama, Ayman and a few of their men crossed the Pakistan border, leaflets were on the floor of the mountaineous regions. The leaflets had pictures of Osama bin Laden and Ayman al Zawahiri, and said (paraphrased) - 'If you see either of these two men, ring this number: ...' with a bounty of millions of dollars for each of these men. The number to ring was an American number. Even if anyone saw them and recognised them, which Afghan living on the mountains could afford to make a call to America?*

The Pakistani bordered neighbours were willing to give shelter to the new guests, just as they had given it to the Afghans and Arabs during the war against Russia. It is part of their tribal customs to give protection to someone who seeks their protection, even if that person is their enemy. The Afghans call this tribal custom; Pushtanwala - unwritten laws which are commonly agreed on by all tribal Afghans and those like them.

Now the Taliban and AQ were either in the Hindu Kush mountains of Afghanistan, or the border of Pakistan, or travelling to other lands like Iraq. No-one could actually fight the USA in Afghanistan because of its intense air power and bombing, while they only had AK-47s and light weaponry, with even their bases destroyed, and no Stinger missiles (Massoud had been paid by the CIA to purchase them back from the Afghan warlords). Their main focus right now was to regroup and make a new strategy.

Surviving in Pakistan:

Now that AQ was by itself in Pakistan, with a lack of communication with the Afghan Taliban, they decided to spread their few men to different areas of Pakistan to ensure their survival.

Some stayed in the border regions of Pakistan, making alliances with the tribes on the border - giving them training and religious inspiration. Others fled to capital cities of Pakistan like Karachi to expand their activities, skills and communication abilities (there was no internet and low cell phone reception in the tribal areas). Some would emigrate to the Iraq warzone, others to Africa, some to Yemen, and others to countries in the far East like the Phillipines to produce new regional Al Qa'idah brands. All now had a agenda to spread their ideology and skills globally, and no-one could stop them. The results of these few mens efforts would show up after 2005, with brands like AQAP (in Yemen), AQIM (in the Sahara desert and Europe), AQI (in Iraq), and later brands which did not have AQ titles as part of a new rename strategy, but were still affiliates.

The new aim was to expand their activities, get updates from Iraq and other lands with AQ members, and expand their ideas from a local scale (in Afghanistan) to different countries so they could form more alliances, so if Afghanistan never recovers from the American led war, then their ideas of an international Jihad will continue in other countries. There were many advantages by expanding internationally:- they would have more areas of safety and influence, since it would be difficult for the USA to wage war against every country they settle in. In addition to this, they would have more places to hide and produce new members for their ideology. In effect, they could start wars wherever and whenever they wanted - when they felt it was necessary and the right time.

The Cell Technique:

To strengthen AQ security, Abu Mus'ab al-Suri (the AQ strategist in his book: the Global Islamic Resistance) made the idea of small cells consisting of around 5 people in each cell. These cells would be taught combat and sabotage skills by an AQ member with a hidden identity, and left with a sign (i.e. a certain blink of an eye of Osama in a video, or a certain move) which would hint them to 'awaken' to complete a mission of sabotage. When they were not active, they would be known as 'sleeper cells'. The man with a hidden identity was not to be known by his real details, so that even if the sleeper cell members were caught - they could not tell which man taught them.

AQ learnt this technique the hard way after their entire hierarchy group was almost nearly completely dismantled in the early invasion of Afghanistan, wherein American forces raided caves of AQ members and found documents showing the names and details of AQ members and their detailed profiles. By making small loose cells which were not directly connected to each other except in ideology and common objectives would ensure the survival of the ideology and long term goals without the leader being in danger, and even if he was killed or captured - the ideology and goals would live on.

To counter this new trend however, the Americans went one step ahead by making 'Sting operations' whereby they send men with false identities as teachers of young Muslim men who are interested in Jihad, they then train them briefly and tell them to attack. When the young Muslim male does the attack, the bomb doesn't work, the man is caught red handed and is imprisoned for terrorism, only to realise the man who taught him was a spy and FBI or CIA agent.

Bad news for AQ in Karachi:

As members of AQ used cell phones and the internet to communicate their ideas globally, the Echelon* of the USA was able to track their activities, whereabouts, and capture many of them. Many of them are now in secret prisons and dungeons around the world including Guantanamo Bay, Baghram, Eastern Europe, sometimes even the notorious torture dungeons of Morocco, Algeria, Jordan etc.

(* the Echelon is a multi million terabyte computer machine system used by the CIA and Mosad [israel's secret spy agency] to record all phone calls and internet activities from around the world.)

Although many AQ members were captured and deported to Guantanamo Bay and other dungeons around the world, the AQ members now had 3 choices;

1 - Stay in Karachi, have better communication and research abilities, but be under the threat of being caught by the Pakistan government and deported to the USA.

2 - To return to the tribal areas under the protection of the tribes, but have poor communication abilities.

3 - Go to another country.

Most followed option 2, preferring safety over communication abilities. While others went to other countries away from Karachi to form new cells there. Now there are AQ cells in almost all countries of the world.

IRAQ 2002:

During the late 90s, some AQ members travelled from the Tora Bora mountains through Pakistan, then Iran and into Iraq. Therefore AQ was present in Iraq during the era of Saddam (prior to 2000), but only a small group of men.

In the early years before 2000, governments allowed AQ cells to find refuge in their territories, on the condition that they help that government when it needs small missions completed without ascribing blame onto itself (known as proxy wars). Both sides benefitted this way for their own survival.

When the USA invaded two lands simultaneously (Afghanistan and Iraq in 2001-02), it underestimated the costs, and time it would take to defeat the Islamic insurgencies - this would cause alot of harm to America's economical survival in the future*.)

When America entered into Iraq, it completely dominated the country, entering the capital and removing Saddam (who was actually betrayed by his own relatives) within an extremely short time period.

Alot of Saddam's men who had seen Saddam be captured joined AQI because they thought they would have no jobs and would get attacks of revenge against them by the new Shi'a government. This was their only safety. This boosted AQI (Al Qa'idah Iraq) numbers and their skillset, allowing it to evolve into a more developed and structured organisation with a greater skillset.

Iraq fell into chaos again, looting was everywhere and the different groups (Shi'a, Kurds, Sunnis) were all racing for power.

The atmosphere was hectic, and AQ of Iraq (AQI) would rise as a guerilla force who would ensure that Americans could not achieve their objectives of stealing Muslim Iraqi resources (like oil, natural gas etc.) and putting another puppet ruler in leadership.

The aim of all AQ groups has often been to cause instability in all countries of a healthy Sunni population so that puppet regimes cannot dominate their people through oppression and sell Muslim resources to other nations at a dirt-cheap price. This instability will also allow them to recruit more of the Sunni population to their cause while instilling terror into -often corrupt- government and police agencies who would try to arrest their causes.

Groups like AQ will use Sabotage techniques against sensitive areas of the country to stop the economy of that nation, or Terror techniques to weaken its local/national services (like murdering corrupt anti-Islamist judges, police stations, or highroads, oil pipelines etc.) so the services and economies of that government are always at loss and stagnation.

This instability will force the government to always be in a state of fear, and when the opportunity is right - the AQ can dominate that country in its entirety or at least partially, then use the Muslim resources to support Islamic causes even further.

With instability comes damage to property and harm to innocents (part of modern warfare is that innocents are bound to get caught in crossfire from both sides, because warzones are blurry in the modern era compared to traditional wars). AQ has aimed to avoid casualties of innocent noncombatants, but sometimes it has been inevitable in order to achieve a bigger objective of targeting a high profile target. In later years they have stepped up the effort to win over the hearts of people by not detonating explosions in public areas, even if that means delaying the targeted killing of a high profile target. This is why the amount of suicide attacks are less common in Syria compared to Iraq.

Early successes of Iraq war (2002-2006):

In the early years of the Iraq war, the members of AQ gained many successes against the US forces, they used the new improvised explosive devices (IED's) to blow up enemy transport, in addition to using 'martyrdom operations' (where people would strap bombs and walk into enemy territory and detonate the bomb, killing themselves and the enemy in the attack.) Their scholarly evidences included the famous story mentioned in Sahih Muslim and surah Burooj (chapter 85) in the Quran, explaining the story of the Boy and the King - with the boy willingly getting himself killed for a greater purpose of defending the religion. In addition to his followers throwing themselves in a Fire ditch (Ukhdood) willingly, sacrificing themselves for the sake of preserving the religion of God, and Allah describing them as achieving 'the great victory' (Quran 85:11). This successful method of attack was exported to Afghanistan for the new generation of Taliban and AQ for the years to come.

AQ achieved alot of successes in the early stages of the Iraq war, with the US army at loss and many of their soldiers getting psychological disorders (part of the fear psychological campaign) which Abu Mus'ab al Zarqawi used of beheading the enemy and distributing the videos on the internet.

3 Major AQ Errors in the Iraq war:

But after 2006, the situation changed totally because of 3 major mistakes which all AQ groups in the future would learn from and aim not to fall into again:

1 - They started implementing strictness on the people without winning their hearts. Issues such as enforcing women to wear modest Islamic clothing (Jilbaab) made people hold bad feelings for them, since the people weren't used to this. 2 - Killing tribal leaders who supported American troops made tribes hate AQ and turn against them. 3 - Many volunteer members of AQI (al Qa'idah Iraq) were from Saudi Arabia, and not from Iraq, which made alot of people think it was a conspiracy (i.e. Saudi Arabia sending in men to attack Iraq for a national purpose and using religious slogans as a 'cover up'.)

All these 3 points made the situation change totally, and made the tribes who were supportive of AQI turn against them.

Results: The Awakening Councils & 'the Sons of Iraq':

America's new technique was to pay $300 to each man per month from each tribe to fight against AQI. So men who were in the thousands on the side of AQI between 2002- 2006 suddenly switched sides. They were called 'the Awakening Councils' or 'the Sons of Iraq'. Consisting of mainly Sunni men, they had turned their backs to AQI and inflicted heavy losses on them, to the extent that nearly all the successes of AQI had been reversed. AQI had to go into hiding by the end of the American-led war until they could regroup.

The Shi'a (Nuri Maliki) government took over with the help of the USA and started oppressing the Sunni minority of Iraq. This oppression continues on till today, and the Sunnis' who turned their backs on the AQI now intensely regret what they had done.

This is a repeated trend of events in Iraq throughout history, where sadly the Iraqi people betray those who give them help. This lesson extends from the early Persian Sassanid empire before Islam, to Ali (the cousin of Prophet Muhammad), al Hussein (the grandson of Prophet Muhammad) in Karbala, till today with the AQI, all who have been betrayed by the Iraqi people, only to later regret what they had done.

Now in 2012, the Islamic State of Iraq (ISI) [closely related to AQ] has restarted its campaigns in Iraq against the Shi'a government after US troops have withdrawn. Their aims are sabotage to weaken the new government, and target war contractor mercenaries (who get payed to fight war for rich corrupt business men instead of countries.)

Part 5 - New Allies (2005-2012)

AQ's new ally - the Pakistani Taliban (2002- 2006+):

After Osama and his men had entered into Pakistan territory, many dispersed to different parts of the world to start their own campaigns and spread the AQ ideology.

America was now fully aware that Osama and his men had entered into Pakistan territory. They now had two targets - the Taliban leadership in the mountains of Afghanistan, and the AQ leadership in the Pakistan border.

America started using a new technology - Predator Drones, a remote controlled (unmanned) aeroplane, controlled all the way from America which could spy and shoot missiles on selected targets.

America would now fly drones over the Pakistan border and target leadership of AQ on the border. Knowing the danger of all AQ members being in one place, only a few remained in the border region. This select few would form alliances and spread ideology to local tribes, share guerilla tactics and technology ideas to their new supporters. These new supporters would be known as the TTP (the Pakistani Taliban). Their leaders would be the Mehsud tribe (Abdullah Mehsud, Baitullah Mehsud, and now the present leader (still in 2012) - Hakimullah Mehsud (in the picture) - young brave men in their 30s). The Mehsud’s had alliances with the Taliban and AQ since the Russian Jihad and therefore good relations between the organistions go back to the 80s.

They would work together with local tribes to form extended alliances and ever increasing strength.

These men were now a big support to AQ in Pakistan, the AQ knew that if the Afghan Taliban ever faced losses and inclined to peace talks with the USA, the AQ still had the Pakistani Taliban to defend them and their ideology.

It was during this time period of intense drone strikes that Osama was to be given a hiding place, no-one except one or two people would know his whereabouts. From this place, Osama would convey his messages to the rest of AQ, and only in letter form through a chain of trustworthy letter conveyors. He could never use phones or the internet, since voice recognition could easily be used to track his location. This house would be in Abottobad in Pakistan, a quiet, peaceful middle-class town which no-one would expect to hold such a big ideological leader. He had moved from the caves of Afghanistan into a safe 3 to 4 storey villa with his immediate family (wives and children and grandchildren).

War with the USA-Pak Alliance:

Pakistan had now become a strong ally of the USA. The USA had put intense pressure on the Pakistan army to attack the Taliban of Pakistan and Afghanistan.

In the 1990s, Pakistan did not originally like to attack the Afghani Taliban, nor did the Afghan and border-tribes like to attack Pakistan. Both sides were happy with using each other as buffer and safety zones because both were Muslim majority nations, and Pakistan would feel safe from behind and focus all its efforts on defending itself against India (its sworn enemy). The Afghani Taliban was happy with Pakistan being a neighbour.

But after 9/11: Pakistan had been pressurised and given financial aid (some call it bribe) money by the USA to fight against the AQ Muslims who had sought refuge on its border. Pakistan was not happy with what it had to do, and would stage small attacks to tell the USA it has achieved some successes. Many times the Pakistani army would tell the tribes on the borders they will stage an attack (so the tribes are prepared). This friendly relationship didn't last however due to intense US pressure after the US found out about Pakistans acts of trickery.

America payed more money to the Pakistani army and gave them Positive (money) and Negative (threat of war) reinforcement. The relationship between the Taliban and Pakistan army worsened when generals like Parvez Kayani (an extremely violent and

44 pro-American Pakistani general) took control over the command. He killed innocents in the tribal areas which made the tribes alliance with AQ even stronger. This was during the time when many of AQ were being captured in Karachi and being deported to secret Pakistani torture dungeons, Bagram, Guantanamo Bay etc. where they are tortured in the severest of ways (hung off ceilings, whipped, their body parts cut off with knives, psychological torture, family members threatened with rape and being violently killed etc.)

This led to a heightened level of hatred between AQ, and the tribes (the Afghan/Pakistani Taliban) against Pakistan.

However, there was a lingering fear of the Taliban to attack the Pakistani army alliance out of fear that they would kill Muslims.

AQ told them a Quranic evidence to suggest otherwise; 'O you who believe, do not take the Jews and Christians as allies, they are allies to one another, and if any of you takes them as allies - then no doubt HE IS OF THEM.' (Quran 5:51)

They used this verse to prove that the Pakistani army had left Islam by allying with the Christian USA and NATO forces (who were predominantly Christian and the war often commanded and directed by zionist Jews), and since they were fighting against people who were trying to implement Islam - this made their crime even worse.

Many Taliban were still doubtful until they realised that the Pakistani army took their seriousness in religion as a joke, torturing their imprisoned brothers in the severest of ways. Abu Marwan al-Suri was an Afghan-Arab who had been stopped on a bus checkpoint, the army patrol who were Afghans had stopped him. He raised his gun and told them he was a Mujahid (struggler for the cause of Islam) so they should leave him alone. They laughed at him and ready to arrest him, he didn't shoot out of fear that they are Muslims (and that he would be judged by Allah on Judgment Day). They chased after him and shot him behind his back and were awarded medals for this by the western forces. This made all the locals furious, and they destroyed all the patrols and army backups in that area.

Another Mujahid called Sadiq helped the Pakistani army in fighting for occupied Kashmir, when he went to help the Afghan Taliban - he was caught by the Pakistani ISI (secret services). They hung him by one arm in the air and used knives to carve stars in his leg. Only then he realised that the Pakistan army was an enemy of Islam who only used the Kashmir mujahideen (Muslim fighters) for a different agenda and not for a

45 religious cause. When he left jail, he was now willing to fight them after seeing their extreme evil and corruption especially against the Muslim fighters.

These examples evolved the average Taliban member from a tribal fighter to an AQ ideologue, committed to its causes and ambitions. This brutal alliance of Pakistan with the USA made a new generation of Taliban fighters who were even more committed to opposing America and its allies, removing the possibility of future peace deals, and forcing them to battle American interests as a life ambition instead of a mere tribal loyalty war. This would be another factor which would cause the downfall of America and its allies in the future.*

AQ and Taliban –Next Generation: The original AQ with Abdullah Azzam and Osama in Tora Bora (1980-2004) consisted of middle class Arabs and Muslims who had studied mainly Engineering, Medicine, Economics etc. They were educated and had hope for a bright future. They chose to serve the AQ cause for a higher purpose of serving God's religion.

The new generation of AQ and Taliban (2005-2012+) would also be the middle class Muslim youth. But unlike the earlier generation, these would be more lethal and technologically advanced.

Comparison between the old and new generation:

1 - The old generation Taliban was often allied with Pakistani forces, considering them still to be Muslims who could not be harmed (this was because the Pakistan government had helped the Afghan Taliban during the Russian war).

The New generation Taliban: had seen the brutality of the Pakistan and Western forces, and felt no loyalty to them whatsoever. This radicalised them more than the previous generation.

2 - The new generation was exposed to AQ ideology more than the Taliban who kept an ideological difference. The old Taliban had a national agenda through local tribes, but the new generation have a global agenda with many considering themselves Muslims before their nationality or tribe of birth, even if they have to disobey their tribal leader. This would be a major step forward for the AQ who needed 100% loyal commanders.

3 - Improved technology skills - the New generation is more open to sophisticated technologies & weapons compared to the old generation, mainly due to the internet and information era.

Their intermixing with AQ members more explicitly has changed traditional views, i.e. the use of 'martyrdom operations' is increasingly used by the new generation of Afghani Taliban compared to the older generation where this wasn't even imaginable to do.

In essence: the New generation of Taliban and AQ has become; emboldened, bigger in number over a wider geographical area, more sophisticated technologically, tougher in ideology (compared to the original Taliban which was toppled in 2001), and now with a global agenda - with all of them saying their final goal is to liberate and free Jerusalem from the zionists and Jews…

All this could have been prevented by a single statement of; 'air strike permission granted' when Osama could be seen, slightly before 9/11. But greed got the better of some influential individuals, and America can hardly recover now from this past error which it greatly regrets, and from its increasing trillion dollar debt.

Old Generation vs New Generation Taliban Commanders:

Old Generation:- Average Age: 35 Spoken Languages: Pushto, Dari, Urdu (possibly some Arabic.) Skills: Farming, old guerilla tactics. Agenda: to liberate Afghanistan from occupiers and work to make an Islamic Emirate. Allegiance: to Mullah Omar for an Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan, and allegiance to tribe for support.

New Generation: Average Age: 25 Languages: Arabic, Pushto, Dari, Urdu, English. Skills: New Guerilla tactics, sophisticated weaponry, and bomb making. Agenda: a global agenda, first to free Afghanistan and continue till the liberation of Jerusalem from the zionists. Allegiance: to Mullah Omar, and to the AQ ideology.

This trend is not limited to the Taliban only, but around the world and around the different affiliates of AQ.

AQ affiliates since the American-led Afghan war (almost all sprang to life after 2005, but were being developed in the years prior):

AQAP in Yemen (known as Al Qa'idah Arabian Peninsula) is the strongest affiliate of AQ in the world right now (the year 2012). They control the Abyan province in Yemen and rule according to Islamic law. They were the creators of the Inspire Magazine in the English language, and the well known English speaker Anwar al Awlaki was associated with them and was killed in a drone strike in Yemen a few years ago.

ISI (Islamic State of Iraq) - a new version of AQI (Al Qa'idah Iraq), but now being run by Iraqi's. It has become active once again since US forces left Iraq.

AQIM - Al Qa'idah Islamic Maghrib (Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia and neighbouring countries) - located in the deserts of the Sahara. It has also infiltrated into Europe, with a small influence in France (since many Arabs in France come from the countries of the Islamic Maghrib).

Al Shabaab (meaning: the Youth) - Somalia & Africa.

Boko Haraam (meaning: the West [way of life] is Haraam [forbidden]) - in Nigeria, Africa.

Ansar al Deen (Helpers of the Religion)- Mali.

AQ Central - located in the borders of Afghanistan/Pakistan, but location of key members is unknown.

Taliban (Afghanistan) - still under the leadership of Mullah Omar.

Taliban (Pakistan TTP) - being led by Hakimullah Mehsud.

Jubhat al Nusra (Face of Victory) - suspected of being linked to AQ, in the Syria revolution . It is the most well equipped and knowlegable of war and guerilla tactics in the Syrian revolution, making all Syrian revolutionaries depend on it for its 'brave men, skills and war tactics.'

Uzbekistan - Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan (IMU). It wants to replace the tyrant regime of Uzbekistan with an Islamic governance, with key members located in the Afghanistan-Pak border.

Pakistan - Lashkar e Tayba (LeT) - has been responsible for the Mumbai attacks in India, 2008. Has cells in India too.

There is an alarming amount of groups forming or in cell form throughout different parts of the world. They may be in sleeper cell mode until their time is ready for launch.

Part 6 - Block the Global supply routes (2006+)

Abu Baseer Pirates:

Abu Baseer sat in the desert between Makkah and Madinah. He had escaped torture from the disbelievers of Makkah, and because the Madinan Muslims had a peace treaty (Hudaybiyyah) with the Makkans - he couldn't return to Madinah either. Then he saw a caravan of merchants travelling from Makkah and he got an idea, since they were at war with him - he would raid their caravan and keep the wealth from the caravan for himself. He did exactly this, and became a thorn in the sides of the disbelievers. They would later beg the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) to tell Abu Baseer -with his now small militia- to stop. Being the merciful Messenger of God that he was, he told Abu Baseer to stop.

This was exactly the next AQ plan, to attack the caravans of the Western-led forces which travelled through Afghanistan to resupply NATO. These caravans would range from fuel trucks to Humvees, to sometimes even warplane parts.

This was the tactic used by the Afghans during the Russian Jihad, preventing any supplies from reaching the army renders the army worthless and exposed to danger. AQ promised that the Pakistan Taliban members could use some of this war booty for their own benefit, while other parts were sold for profitable prices to other powers. In one instance, US forces were on high alert when they heard that Pakistan Taliban were driving Humvees in the tribal regions.

The Millionaire Pirates of Somalia:

Osama had originally told the West that he would not attack the Americans and Western powers if;

1 - They did fair trade with Muslims 2 - Removed their bases and domination of Muslim lands. 3 - and stopped their blinding support for Israel.

Like any empire which benefits from bullying weaker nations, the call fell on deaf ears.

It was now time for a global struggle to end this economic domination. Like all AQ tactics, they spread to the other AQ brands. The AQ affiliate in Africa is Harakaat al Shabaab (meaning: the Movement of the Youth) and now more brands are launching (like Ansar al Deen in Mali, etc.)

AQ realised the importance of the sea and how ships 'the sizes of villages' would travel through Muslim nation seas. This was like finding a gold mine for the AQ, who knew that raiding a few tanks or Humvees is not the same as raiding an entire ship which many businesses would even be willing to pay millions of dollars to get back.

Since the Muslim countries are predominantly in middle of the world (Middle East), there would be many strategies they could use to capture ships from both the West and the East. The Somali pirates would therefore start a campaign of capturing ships and keeping them or ransoming them for millions of dollars, they could then use this money to support their causes even further. Furthermore they could block supplies from reaching NATO and US forces in Afghanistan and other Muslim lands where war was being waged.

When this capturing of ships became way too common, Western businesses had to beg the armies to protect their cargo. This made the armies spend millions of dollars to counter the Somali AQ pirates, which was another strategy of AQ - to drain Western economies of their resources in battle - which would gradually destroy their economic strength like the USSR had collapsed economically beforehand 20years ago.

Targeting Cargo Airplanes:

AQ went a level beyond the seas, and began targeting airplanes which carried cargo. This would make Western governments pay millions of dollars in high level security systems which would drain them of their resources even further.

It is noteworthy to mention that Zionists would take advantage of this by making the world more like a 'Big Brother' where peoples privacies are invaded and there are no secrets even within the home. This is becoming increasingly inevitable as more and more devices which people use for their daily benefit (like cell phones, credit cards etc.) are becoming spy tools for the Zionists and governments. AQ would ensure that this synthesised instability in the Muslim World does not let this Big Brother dominance take place.

Secret Shadow Armies (Lashkar al Zil):

With AQ's increasingly confident presence in much of the Muslim world, they decided to launch their next stage of development. While Western strategists were blinded to the belief that AQ in Afghanistan-Pak was the only major threat, AQ was gathering war strategist experts from different parts of the Muslim world to plan their future strategies for them. These strategists would be known as the Lashkar al Zil (the Secret Shadow Army) - consisting of the best military strategists from all the Muslim world.

This secret organisation was forming while the USA estimated the amount of AQ members in Afghanistan to be about 100, and was sending 30,000 troops as reinforcements, assuming they would get rid of AQ and Taliban threat completely.

In the background however, this secret organisation would travel through the lands of war (Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iraq, Somalia, Yemen and any other country it could infiltrate) - preparing new war and guerilla strategies for the future of the Islamic cause. And the reason for this new generations success is because most of them are unknown figures to spy agencies.

Key members included:

Ilyas Kashmiri (the most fearsome guerilla strategist in the world today, creator of the 313 brigade).

Haroon - an ex Pakistan army serviceman who introduced a new type of guerilla warfare for the Taliban.

Sirajuddin Haqqani (the son of the famous Afghan veteran - Jalaluddin Haqqani.) He leads the most notorious and fearsome Taliban group - the Haqqani network.

Zia ur Rahman & Nek Muhammad - New generation Taliban commanders with AQ loyalties. They started the trend of abandoning blind tribal loyalties (which was predominant amongst the Older generation of Taliban.) The New generation speak Arabic as their first language, and are obedient to their AQ leaders before anyone else.

Unclassified information from the USA shows that AQ is the world’s biggest online guerilla group, showing that AQ is advancing is upto the times in new levels of war.

In essence, the Secret Army was a battle hardened generation who had never seen peace (for over 30 years), shadow individuals (unknown to the global spy agencies), loyal to the AQ ideology 100%, with the sole purpose of liberating Muslim lands all the way upto Jerusalem, from western and zionist domination.

Part 7 - The Arab Springs (2011+)

In 2010-2011, Arabs, with the Arab youth in particular started to revolt against the tyrant dictators who had been installed by western regimes for over 100years in the Middle East. This bought many changes to the Muslim world. It is well known that if true democracies are placed in the Muslim world, the majority will vote for an Islamist regime which wants to expel Zionist Jewish and Western influence from their lands. The 1% (Zionists) who control the worlds economy and monopolizes Muslim resources knew that it would be inevitable that Muslims would want an Islamic leadership, and if the dictatorships stayed - the Muslim masses would continue to revolt and may even pickup arms and destabilize Egypt (which is next door to Israel).

A sudden decision was made to allow Egypt and other revolutionary countries to vote for their new leader (after over 100 years of dictatorships). This was necessary to save face, because the world was watching the revolutions and if the USA didn't support the people in their right to decide their leader - the hypocrisy of the West supporting dictatorships (a lack of democracy) would be exposed.

As a result, many Islamist organizations won the majority vote in countries like Egypt, Tunisia etc. Most were the Muslim Brotherhood (MB), or similar type Islamist governments who came into power through democracy, while still being under Western economic dominance and pressure.

How the Muslim Brotherhood (MB) is a stepping stone to Al Qa’idah (AQ):

AQ is unlike the MB in ideology, in that its focus is entirely on resistance and removing western colonialist influence from the Muslim world. They believe that only after all this western economical domination is removed that a real Islamic state can be established. The modern MB is trying to govern while being dominated by western influence - which makes them less likely to succeed in establishing a true Islamic governance. Many people are realising this already after seeing the MB of Egypt gaining hardly any real success for the liberation of Palestine. The plan of western powers to prop up new democratically elected Islamists is only successful for them in the short term.

The West will try to pressurize and manipulate the long term Islamist agendas of these MB type governments, so they will not be able to achieve what Arabs and Muslims really want, in effect these new generation of Muslim youth who now have more religious knowledge (due to more religious expression) will turn to AQ affiliated groups who enact the knowledge of liberating Palestine, and establishing the Shari'ah (Islamic Law in its entirety.)

In simple terms, having moderate Islamist regimes or democratic governments which allow certain religious freedoms will allow people to feel traditional Islam, be inspired by it, and feel that the MB type government is not fulfilling its religious duties in its entirety, causing them to turn to AQ who is a practically embodied inspiration for a complete Islamic ideal Caliphate.

This puts the Zionist plans into a dilemma - they either belittle the MB regimes long term goals and therefore make the people follow AQ quicker, or they allow the MB type regimes to go ahead with their long term plans, which will make them merge with the ideas of an AQ Caliphate soon anyway.

The Syrian Revolution: The revolution of Syria is one of the most shocking turn of events in the early 21st century.

The people of Syria were bold enough to start demonstrations in the year 2011 against their Alawite Shi'a sect dictatorship - the Assad regime which stems all the way back to the early 1960s (starting with Hafiz Assad and now Bashar al Assad). The people of Syria had been dominated by tyrants and secret police (Shabiha - meaning 'ghosts'), wherein over half the population were spies for the dictatorship (most out of fear for their own safety). If any person was even slightly suspected of being revolutionary, 'extra' religious or anti-Assad, their entire family would be raped, imprisoned, tortured, cut up (literally) and killed. This dictatorship and fear lasts and is still running for around 50years (1963- 2012+). Tens of thousands of Syrians were and are now being raped and killed by these (Alawite shi'a) dictators who considered the majority of the Syrian (Sunni) population their enemies.

Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said:

“When the people of Sham (Syria, Jordan, Palestine) become corrupt then there will be no good in you. And there will not cease to be a group from my Ummah [nation] being helped; those that oppose them will not harm them, until the hour is established.” (Tirmidhi 2/30 – Authentic)

Similarly, when the people of Syria become good, the rest of the Muslim world will become good, successful and prosperous.

Since the Zionist and western powers had verbally supported Egypt's transition from a Hosni Mubarak dictatorship (ruling for 20+ years) to a democracy in late 2010-11 because of the Egyptian revolution, it would be hypocritical of them to support the dictator Bashar al Assad. As a result, they stayed neutral to the oppressed revolutionaries of Syria, probably hoping that that the Bashar al Assad regime (which was guarding the Zionist Israel state from Islamists) would quash the revolution.

The Armed Syrian Revolution:

The peaceful Syrian demonstrators started to get shot at by the Shabiha (secret police of Syria) and they would ask the world community for help. But no world power helped them. Gradually some low ranked Syrian soldiers (majority being Sunnis) deserted from the army, giving rise to militias who would defend the Sunni majority population. Now the revolution was armed and becoming increasingly a religious war, the militias began to increase in number. (picture below: rebels praying in congregation).

The beginning of AQ in the Syrian revolution (2011- 12):

A suspected Syrian AQ affiliate called Jubhat al Nusra (which survived in Syria as a proxy like AQI in Iraq during the era of Saddam) turned its back to the Syrian regime.

Jubhat al Nusra began to support the Syrian revolutionaries since they were Sunnis like them (note: Salafis are Sunnis in that they follow the same Prophetic teachings unlike the Shi'a.)

The revolutionaries found light weaponry from deserted Syrian soldiers, as well as bribing Syrian soldiers with money to sell them weapons. Jubhat al Nusra was able to smuggle better weapons and expert bomb makers in from neighboring Iraq (since the Islamic State of Iraq was associated with them in ideology). This allowed the newly formed militias (the Free Syrian Army [FSA]) to grow and gain major successes . As I write this now (November 2012), there is a balance in territory between the revolutionaries and the Syrian dictatorship.

When it became inevitable (mid 2012) to Western powers that the Assad regime would not survive in the long run, they decided to support the Syrian revolution in words only - to gain influence over them, and to ensure that the end results of the revolution was a

57 democratic state which is in accordance with Western interests (the Arab people consider this hypocritical since no western power criticized the 50 year old Assad regime as a dictatorship or undemocratic or against human rights against the Sunni population, and now they are criticizing the Islamist revolutionaries for wanting to rule according to the what they spilt their blood for).

Syria, the new Afghanistan:

Now Syria is like the 80s Russian war in Afghanistan, where global powers are competing to make a stable country which suits their interests best, with Turkey playing the role of the old 80s Pakistan of giving refuge to the fleeing Afghans. The revolutionaries have now become Islamists (turning to God and religion after the whole world had betrayed them.) With fighters coming from different lands to establish an Islamic state, it is possible that if an Islamic state is established by the Muslim fighters, America or Israel will attack it under the premise of 'terrorism', and it is known that the Western zionist coalition have lost the war against the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan already. Prophecies in the Jewish scripture suggest that a conflict between a corrupt Israel and 'men from the North’ (of Israel) will occur, with the final victory being for the mountaineous people. (see chapter on Prophecies.)

Now with America simultaneously leading wars in;

1 - Iraq, 2 - Yemen, 3 - Afghanistan, and soon 4 – Syria, they would be the main cause for the reviving of the global Islamic Jihad which leads to the battles of the End times (mentioned in both; Jewish, Christian and Islamic scripture), wherein the corrupt state of Israel would be destroyed. (see special chapter on Prophecies).

In essence, American has put itself and the state (of Israel) which it ever so wished to defend to destruction by waging greedy wars which were really unnecessary.

Al Qa’idah (AQ) – the new good guy for the Muslim masses?

Many westerners are beginning to consider the actions of the United Nations (UN) hypocritical, in that over 30,000 people have been killed in Syria, and the UN has not done anything to support these people. Furthermore, they put forward options to support the rebels, while knowing that AQ Jubhat al Nusra is in their presence.

If the NATO and US forces intervene in Syria, will they be on the same side with AQ Jubhat al Nusra against the Syrian dictatorship? Wouldn't that make them supporters or allies with terrorists? All these questions and double standards pass through the people’s minds.

Infact the delay of NATO and US forces has made AQ a hero in the eyes of the Syrians and Muslims globally, since no-one helped these weak and oppressed people except AQ. This has increased the number of and the confidence of Jihadis in Syria and around the world, when the US has been trying to prevent this from occurring since their war began against AQ began (20 years ago).

Even lay Muslims and non-militant Muslims who considered AQ as aggressors (and as ‘extremists who kill innocents’) in the past now consider them as heroes who helped the Syrians against the oppressive dictatorship when the world abandoned them. This is further strengthened by AQ’s new technique of bringing new groups who do not name themselves with the Al-Qa’idah brand but still uphold its ideology.

Osama gets killed:

According to western reports, the CIA followed the trail of the letter senders of Osama bin Ladin, who sent messages to all the way upto the last man who was known as ‘the Kuwaiti’.

They found that this man lived with his family in a villa in Abottabod in Pakistan. They had a strong inclination that Osama also lived in that house and kept an eye on that property for many months. Their speculation grew and they were willing to take the risk of finishing Osama once and for all because the AQ threat against the west had grown so unimaginably big.

They had many plans to assassinate Osama; to send a bomb which would destroy the entire villa (left), but they did not decide this because they felt it would cause unnecessary global attention and bad relations between Pakistan and America - especially if Osama wasn't living in the house. After a lot of decisions, they decided to send a 6-man NAVY Seals team in the night to raid the house, find Osama and kill him, if he wasn't there - they would quietly leave and fly off in a stealth helicopter (which had never been seen by the public before.) They did exactly this, they raided the house and according to western reports - Osama was there and was shot and killed, but the stealth helicopter had crashed. Later he was reportedly buried in the sea so that 'his grave doesn't become a shrine.' Taliban sources confirmed that Osama had passed away, but they did not affirm that he had been killed. Some people suggest that Osama may have already died, and the story of his killing is only made up to show a dramatic bravado victory to the American public.

Did killing Osama finish the AQ ideology?

No. Osama himself would say that he is a slave of God, and if he dies - the struggle would continue on after him.

Letters which the USA reportedly found in his villa suggest that Osama was sad that AQ was dying out because many of its key members were being killed in drone strikes. But it is well known that seniors of AQ have taken precautions by training many new generation members of AQ to be commanders and leaders, in addition to Osama's idea of relabeling the AQ brand with other names so any remnants of past bad reputation do not stay, and the ideology lives on. (So in Yemen there is a brand called Ansar al Shari'ah (Aiders of the Islamic Law), in Iraq - Islamic State of Iraq, in Syria - Jubhat al Nusra [the Face of Victory], and many other affiliates mentioned in this book already. All these groups are suspected of being AQ in ideology but their changed names remove the bad experiences people may have had with the brand of AQ in the past.)

Osama’s dream comes true:

Osama revived the idea that Muslims should rise up to defend their religion and gain their own independence from external world powers. By the time he had been killed, the AQ ideology had spread from the Tora Bora cave, through to; Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iraq, Libya, Uzbekistan, Chechnya, Yemen, Somalia, Sudan, Morocco, Tunisia, and had infiltrated to many lands throughout the world. In effect, he had left behind an ideology which knows no borders and is not dependent upon specific people, an ideology which removes Western and zionist dominance over Muslim lands. The ideology is now only awaiting one leader ( the Mahdi – the guiding leader for the Muslims) to lead them all under one banner, leading to the liberation of the holy city of Jerusalem.

Part 9: Near Future Predictions (2012+)

Now with an; increasingly unstable Middle-East, filled with new generation Al Qa’idah (AQ) inspired groups, a decreasing amount of dictators supporting colonialist agendas, and constant AQ attacks against pipelines which transport cheap oil, gases and resources to colonialist interests - the western world and Israel is in a dilemma of a new global Islamic awakening. The European Union is getting poorer, with its populations becoming increasingly hostile to the Muslim populations.

What is likely to happen next? Looking at the Prophecies concerning the end times, it seems that the Europeans will become increasingly Christian (since poor people often turn to religion when they have nothing else.)

 Left: a Crusader from 1000years ago.

 Right: the England flag in Europe.

Note: nearly all European flags have a cross still today, even though they claim to be secular nations. This shows they are still ready for an upcoming Crusade war.

With the west having a lack of complete influence over the Muslim leadership, a modern European Crusade will take place under the banner of the European Union.

This will lead upto the final battles of the Malhamah (literally: the lands of Meat [due to so much killing in war]), also known as the Armageddon in Christian scripture, where Christians and Muslims will have a major war in Damascus, Syria. In the end the Muslims will be victorious (after facing heavy losses), according to Islamic Prophecy.

Part 10 – Special - the Black Flags from the East:

Afghanistan is central to the entire conflict which is taking place in the world today, with nearly all AQ leaders pledging loyalty (bay'ah) of obedience to Mullah Omar in Afghanistan, following the trend of their former leader Osama bin Laden.

The distinct line between AQ and Taliban is becoming increasingly blurry, and the new generations of Taliban are pledging allegiance to the AQ ideology of a global struggle.

They are all uniting under 1 flag - a black flag, which says in Arabic script: 'Laa ilaaha il-Allah’ (there is no god but Allah.) This trend is not limited to Afghanistan, infact all groups suspected of being associated with AQ have black flags with this Islamic testimony of faith written on it.

The Flag:

Both the black flag and the white flag were originally used by Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) as standards of war to unite the army under a central command.

The black and white flags were used by other Islamic dynasties in later generations (often to imitate the prophesized army of the end times), i.e. the Abbasids tried this and called one of their first leaders the Mahdi (awaited leader of the Muslims who Guides them to victory.)

Brief History:

After 1924, the Ottoman Muslim Caliphate [Khilafah] officially collapsed, and the Muslim bloc of united states were divided into nation states for an easy divide and conquer rule. Different flags of different colours were made by each country, and puppet rulers who supported the colonialists were propped up into power. But none of them had a completely black flag. The black flag has now re-emerged, as if the battle flag of the Prophet has re-emerged.

AQ's Goals:

The aim of AQ is to unite all Muslim resistance movements under the black flag, ensuring all resistance movements agendas extend beyond national borders, so whenever extra men are needed in any Muslim land for battle, reserves can be called in from another country without any nationalism or borders coming in their way. In essence, a global Jihad is being revived behind the scenes, and no-one can stop it.

Owning the Resistance: AQ's goal as the resistance is not simply to lead the Islamic resistance, but rather to own it entirely to fulfill a global Jihad agenda. They do this by allying with any Muslims (and sometimes even non muslims) going through armed struggle, they provide them with; funding, weapons, guerilla tactics and men, winning their hearts and minds and gradually winning that organisation over to an Islamic cause. This is what they did originally with the Afghani Taliban, and now their reach has extended to many nations including China (the Uyghur Muslims in Turkmenistan), Phillipines, Syria. Africa, Chechnya, Uzbekistan, Africa and many other countries throughout the world.

The Instability-Fix technique: The technique used by zionists and many terror gangs has been to cause sabotage and chaos, then to intervene as if they are the saviour, and then to fix the new situation according to what suits their interests, enslaving mankind to their agendas to make a global police or Big Brother state.

Cause Sabotage & Instability - Intervene - Fix (according to own interests).

AQ has imitated this concept to destabilise tyrant regimes in the Muslim world and has been quiet successful, while many laypeople who don't know the nature of modern warfare and politics see it as random explosions by 'crazy extremists'.

AQ plans on making an instable world where the Zionists cannot dominate the people easily. (i.e. the Western world has been dominated by Zionist influence most as it is the most stable and government controlled part of the world.) Governments are easy to bribe if you have the majority of the worlds wealth in your possession. The Zionists have mastered this well to the extent that many people in the West know about these Big Brother plans but feel helpless as they can't do anything to stop it. (see the movie: Minority Report which gives a preview of the new Big Brother type world)

3 Main Players forming in the New World Order:

In the world regarding Jerusalem, there are 3 main world players forming;

1- the European Union - the new modern Crusaders.

2 - Muslims in the Khurasan (greater Afghanistan) & Middle East,

3 - Christians (neo-conservatives) allying with Zionists (who are awaiting a Jewish king [who Muslims consider as al-Dajjal (the AntiChrist)]).

1 - The Modern European Union Crusader Hooligans, & the difficulties practicing Muslims will face in the West:

Europeans are becoming poorer and more violent and bitter due to the credit crunch and austerity measures which bail out banks using the publics money (when it was the zionist banks which cheated on their own people in the first place.)

Europeans want to release their anger of poverty onto someone, with the Zionist media portraying Muslims as the enemy - the public is releasing their anger and becoming more hostile to practising Muslims, wanting to expel them from their lands.

European media has started a new campaign, using words like 'Crusade' generously to adjust their people back to the 1000 year old mentality of a war against the Middle East 'Saracen' Muslims.

Crusade type titles are subtle and often used for sports clubs which raise national pride, or as a metaphor, but reusing the phrase hints at a psychological trick to get Europeans to get back onto the old mindset of a war against Muslims.

Many Western armies also have Bible verse numbers imprinted on their weapons, which makes the soldiers feel they are fighting a religious war. Reports in mid 2012 also suggested that US army institutes were teaching soldiers of a global war against Islam and of bombing the Ka'bah (located in Makkah - the holiest site in Islam), although this was later denied by the teachers.

Whatever the case, the Crusader mentality amongst Europeans will gradually grow, in addition to poverty, bitterness targetted against a now practising Muslim (3rd generation) immigrants, and a return to Christianity as a replacement to materialism.

There is more than enough evidence to suggest that Europe is increasingly becoming anti-Islamic, with groups forming all over Europe (like the EDL and BNP in the UK, and similar groups throughout Europe).

These groups will pressurise Muslims to give up their Islamic identity (beard, hijab etc.), or alternatively face insults and violent abuse. Muslims who complain to the authorities will not be taken seriously as they are considered the 'outsiders who always complain.'

It will be these hooligan type working class groups who will consist of the majority of the modern Crusade armies.

Since the unstable Middle East will now be independent from Western economic domination (due to AQ's campaign of freeing the Muslim world from colonialist powers) - promises of riches will be promised to the European masses to entice them to join the modern Crusade (similar to the 1000yr old crusade of last millenium.)

This modern Crusade will most likely be the Malhamah (Armageddon) promised in both Muslim and Christian prophecies, and will take place in Damascus, Syria.

2 – The Modern Spanish Inquisition against Muslims – ‘Thought Crimes’:

Muslims living in Europe are facing a dilemma which is ever growing, with the arrests of many Muslims on false 'terror' charges for having 'suspicious violent beliefs'.

This trend will continue to grow for the years to come at an increasing rate until Muslims either; give up the Quran completely in their lives, or they have to quietly emigrate to Muslim lands or face persecution in Europe like the Spanish Muslims had to during the Spanish Inquisition.

Unlike the hooligans mentioned in point 1, this group of the Western government elite have released legislation like the Terrorism Act (in the UK), or the Patriot Act (in the USA) where anyone merely on suspicion of 'terrorism' (a loose term which can be used to arrest anyone) can be arrested and detained, even deported for an indefinite period of time in solitary confinement for years.

Western Muslims who emigrate to the Muslim world will find instability there too, but the Muslims in the west will find that they are in the shark's mouth (in a more dangerous position.)

The Muslims who do emigrate to Muslim lands will see that Jerusalem will be taken over and Masjid al Aqsa demolished in placement of Solomon's Temple. But that will be the first sign of future Muslim victory and the liberation of Jerusalem.

3 - The Neo-conservative Christians and Jewish Zionist alliance:

Jews have wanted to return to a glorious Jerusalem for a (nearly 3000 years.)

Christians have been waiting a long time for the return of Jesus (2000 years.)

Both groups -although enemies to each other- have formed an alliance as Zionists to await for the arrival of the final Messiah.

These Zionists await the fulfillment of the Messiah in 3 steps: i - The creation of the state of Israel, with the capital being Jerusalem. [DONE Already.] ii - The demolition of Masjid al Aqsa, and the building of the Temple of Solomon (where the Anti-Christ [Dajjal] will live). [Nearly DONE Already.]

(the Masjid al Aqsa was really built by Prophet Solomon/Sulaiman, but the Jews and Christians wrongly say that it was a Temple of magic, and they consider Solomon a king and not a Prophet.) iii - The arrival of the (False) Messiah (the Jews await the Jewish king, while the Christians say this king is Jesus). Both groups will be tricked and this king will really be the Anti-Christ, a one eyed liar (Dajjal means someone who always lies and decieves.) He will be the leader of the New World Order, ruling the entire world through one dictatorship government.

Masjid al Aqsa to be replaced with Solomon’s Temple:

Masjid al Aqsa in its entirety (it includes the entire rectangle area within the green border –[ even where there is no building, since the original Masjid was that big].)

Many zionists don't mind if America collapses, since America is only being used to fund a Zionist Israel - their main goal - where the new Solomon temple will be built in replacement of Masjid al Aqsa (with Masjid al Aqsa being demolished for the building of Solomon’s temple). But AQ are fully aware of this, and their agenda in targetting American interests is only so they can weaken Israel's backbone, and then face it head on near the closely approaching end times.

The Zionist state of Israel is fully aware that America is collapsing, they are preparing the world for a new world order where Hebrew is the main spoken language (with phrases like anti-Semitism only being used right now so that anyone who criticizes Israel's agenda of world domination is silenced).

Basic things like credit cards are only being used to replace money to enslave the masses to a slavery owned by Zionists, so that if you disobey them - they simply lower your credit balance to 0 and you are poor without any help. This is true slavery of the masses.

The people effected most blinded to this slavery will be the non Arabs (Arabic: Ajam) and the non Khurasan fighters, since they were dependant the most on credit to buy their daily food. Muslim lands on the other hand will be unstable (less governable by the Zionists), so Muslims who grow their own foods will be able to survive more freely compared to people who are dependant upon a credit based economy.

The Black Flags Prophecy - Sequence of Events:

Ahmad narrated from Abu Hurayrah that he said: "The Messenger of Allah [sallallahu 'alayhi wa-sallam] said: "Black banners will come out of Khurasan, and nothing will stop them, until they are raised in Ayliya'."

Ayliya' [Aelia] is the ancient Roman name for Bayt al-Maqdis (Jerusalem).

Khurasan refers to the area of present- day Afghanistan and eastern Persia.

Jewish Scripture describing the war and men of war against Zion:

God planning against the corrupt Jerusalem:

This is what the LORD of Heaven's Armies says: "Cut down the trees for battering rams. Build siege ramps against the walls of Jerusalem. This is the city to be punished, for she is wicked through and through. (Jeremiah 6:6)

Why Allah punishes the Zionists:

Then said the LORD unto me, The end has come upon my people of Israel; I will not again pass by them anymore. (because they had broken God’s covenant and caused corruption in the Earth) "In that day," declares the Sovereign LORD, "the songs in the temple will turn to wailing. Many, many bodies--flung everywhere! Silence!" (Amos 8: 2,3)

This army is described in the Old Testament of the Jewish scripture:

"Behold, a people comes from the north country,

(note: North of Israel are Muslim lands [inc. Iraq, Afghanistan, Egypt & others] which have faced bitter oppression because of Israel)

And a great nation will be raised from the farthest parts of the earth.

They will lay hold of bow and spear,

They are cruel and have no mercy;

Their voice roars like the sea; (when Muslims shout ‘Allahu akbar’ (God is greater) in unison)

And they ride horses

As men of war set in array against you, O daughter of Zion."

(Jeremiah 6:22,23.)

One thousand (zionists) shall flee from the threat of one,

At the threat of five you shall flee,

Till you are left as a pole on top of a mountain

As as a banner on a hill."

(Isaiah 5: 26-30)

Blow a trumpet in Zion, And sound an alarm on My holy mountain! Let all the inhabitants of the land tremble, For the day of the LORD is coming; Surely it is near, a day of darkness and gloom, a day of clouds and blackness. Like dawn spreading across the mountains - a large and mighty army comes, such as never was of old nor ever will be in ages to come. (Joel 2: 1-9)

The Army of Black Flags mention in Islamic Prophecy:

"The Messenger of Allah [sallallahu 'alayhi wa-sallam] said: "Matters will run their course until you become three armies: an army in Sham (Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, Palestine), an army in 'Iraq, and an army in the Yemen." I said: "O Messenger of Allah, choose which one I should join." He said: "You should go to Sham [syria, palestine, lebanon, jordan], for it is the best of Allah's lands, and the best of His slaves will be drawn there. And if you refuse, then you should go to the Yemen and drink from its wells. For Allah has guaranteed me that He will look after Sham and its people."

According to Prophecies mentioned above; there will be 3 Muslim armies in the end times. An army in;

1 - Iraq, 2 - Yemen. 3 - Syria

4 - and Khurasan (Afghanistan and surrounding areas). [although its authenticity is disputed, the world today affirms its reality.]

AQ and its affiliates today are present with their armies in all 4 places;

Iraq - Islamic State of Iraq (ISI) Syria - Jubhat al Nusra Yemen - Ansar al Shari'ah (AQAP). Khurasaan - AQ central, Taliban and similar movements.

All are being fought by US and coalition forces, except the one in Syria. As this book is being written (November 2012), Jubhat al Nusra and other Islamic groups in Syria have publicly and officially announced that they are aiming to establish an Islamic State in Syria. The USA and NATO are waiting for the right moment to intervene and prevent this from happening, but even if they did intervene, Jubhat al Nusra would simply hide and re-emerge like the Islamic State of Iraq did after the USA withdrawal.

All these AQ groups have survived years of war, and it is almost impossible for them to be removed because they are all independent of each other and only united in ideology, hence they will have a permanent presence wherever they are located, even if they have to hide in the mountains.

The Prophecised 12,000 Army of Abyan, Yemen are being mustered right now:

Ahmad narrated from Ibn 'Abbas [radhiyallahu 'anhuma] that he said: "The Messenger of Allah [sallallahu 'alayhi wa-sallam] said: "There will come out of 'Adn Abyan twelve thousand supporting Allah and His Messenger, who will be the best of people between my time and theirs.

Ansar al Shari'ah (AQAP) is in Yemen, located in the 'Adn Abyan province and is already mustering up an army of 12,000 men who the Prophet (peace be upon him) described as 'the best between me and them.'

Invasion of India Prophecy:

In regard to the Khurasan army:

Abu Hurayrah narrated from the Prophet [sallallahu 'alayhi wa-sallam] that he said: "A group of people from my Ummah will invade India, and Allah will cause them to conquer it, until they come to the kings of India and bind them in chains. Allah will forgive all of their sins. Then, they will turn towards Sham (greater Syria), and they will find 'Isa ibn Maryam (Jesus son of Mary - the true Messiah) in Sham (Greater Syria)."

Note: The confusion in regard to the timespan between the Mahdi and Jesus is naturally unclear. But the Mahdi comes 1st, then the Dajjal and then Jesus. Looking at the situation of the world today makes many respected scholars of the resistance assume that the Mahdi is born now, and will soon unite the ranks of the different groups of Islamic resistance.

The Al Qa’idah Terror threat to India (since the 2008 Mumbai attacks) is part of the Prophecy to invade India at the End Times:

Looking at the Taliban of Khurasan today, we see their motive is India. Ilyas al Kashmiri, the world’s most fearsome guerilla expert has encouraged the Taliban, Lashkar e Tayba and AQ to start a terror campaign in India. But why India?

The Pakistan army -which is a strong US ally- against the AQ and Taliban was on high alert in 2008 during the Mumbai terror attacks in India. India was about to wage war against Pakistan because it accused Pakistan of having planned these attacks through a proxy (Lashkar e Tayba).

Because of this big threat - Pakistan stopped all its fighting with the militants on the Afghan-Pak border, ready for full-scale war with India, allowing the Taliban and al Qaeda to regroup and have more freedom of movement. AQ and Taliban promised to help the Muslim majority nation of Pakistan if they had a war with India. The USA read through the lines and quickly calmed India down, telling them that a war between India and Pakistan would only benefit AQ and the Taliban.

The AQ knows that by spreading terror in India, India will attack Pakistan for 'harbouring terrorists in its Afghan border.' Pakistan will retaliate back, and AQ and the Taliban will support their Muslim neighbours, and possibly even Bangladesh (another Muslim majority neighbour).

This full regional war will make a Muslim vs Hindu conflict, finally giving Muslims a victory as promised by Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). Such an army will be forgiven all their past sins (therefore they will be people of Paradise).

Thanking God for the liberation of Jerusalem:

The army of Black Flags from Khurasan (greater Afghanistan) will turn to Syria (and join the Syrian army with the Mahdi and fight against the state of Israel for Allah knows how long, until finally they are cornered into a fortress. Al-Dajjal arrives as the King of the New World Order. They wait as they know they cannot defeat the Dajjal, and after some time find that Jesus son of Mary, the true Messiah has returned to Earth from Heaven. They - the army with black flags - will then reach Jerusalem and Jesus the true Christ (Messiah) will defeat the Anti-Christ (false Messiah), since he is the only one who can defeat the Anti-Christ. They will then transform the corrupt Israel into a pure city, rebuilding the Masjid al Aqsa (Masjid [is a: place of prostration] built by Prophet Solomon) as a place of prayer to thank God for fulfilling His promise to them.

According to the Jewish Old Testament, this will be their prayer of thanks:

Revelations: 19:1-2)* "Alleluja! Salvation and glory and honor and power belong to the Lord, our God! For true and righteous are His judgments, because He has judged the great harlot (prostitute) who corrupted the earth with her fornication; and He has avenged on her the blood of His servants shed by her." (Safar al Halawi in ‘the Day of Wrath’ says the harlot is America and Israel who spread corruption and shameful acts on the Earth, and these two nations spilt a lot of Muslim blood – so they have avenged the blood of the Muslims after their victory in Jerusalem.)

Zephaniah 3:9 - " “For at that time I will change the speech of the peoples to a pure speech,, that all of them may call on the name of the LORD and serve him shoulder to shoulder. ( 'shakam' lit. Shoulder, as in shoulder to shoulder prayer (none does this except the Muslims in congregation (Jamaa'ah) of standing shoulder to shoulder with each other in prayer..)

When will all this happen?

2012 is the year many Islamic scholars (i.e. Safar al Halawi [in his book: the Day of Wrath]) and many intellectuals from different religions have predicted. They consider that if 2012 is not the end of the world, then it is the beginning of the End times.

The AQ groups in Afghanistan, Somalia and Yemen have blocked off Western oil supplies in the Red Sea, with vital resources transported to Western forces for the past few years being blocked, AQ strategists have predicted that 2012 will be the year when

75 the Western forces will leave Afghanistan. In early November 2012, France and British forces actually withdrew from Afghanistan, most likely due to this AQ strategic success.

Once occupation forces have left Afghanistan in their entirety (within the upcoming months or years), the Taliban and AQ will themselves leave Afghanistan and march towards Jerusalem, and no-one will be able to stop them as has been prophecised.

Their numbers will only grow as they pass through Iraq (merging with other AQ affiliates like the Islamic State of Iraq), then Syria (the Islamic armed revolutionaries), and then with other Palestine armed factions. The other brands of AQ will also merge with them, making them an unstoppable force.

Anyone who comes in their way will violently be destroyed "Then, the black banners will come out of the east and kill you as no people have ever been killed.. "So when you hear of him, then go to him and give the bay'ah (allegiance) to him, even if you must crawl over ice. For he is Allah's khalifah, the Mahdi." (ibn Majah)

MAPS

Appendix 1: Al-Qa’idah’s (AQ) stages of development (1990-2012) after the Russian-Afghanistan war:

0 – Saudi Arabia and Egypt were the main countries of most AQ key members, with Osama bin Laden coming from Saudi Arabia and Ayman al Zawahiri et al. coming from Egypt.

0.5 – Sudan was the temporary country AQ members sought refuge in after their own countries dictatorships would be a threat for them.

1 – Afghanistan was the place for return when Osama and his men had to escape Sudan in an emergency, with the Taliban dominating most of Afghanistan and the civil

77 war close to an end.

2 – The Tora Bora mountains and the Afghan-Pak border where AQ sought refuge in during the US-led attack in Afghanistan (after September 11th 2001).

3 – Karachi was the main Pakistan city many AQ members decided to flee to for better communications with the outside world and other insurgencies (2002-2005). 3.5 – Iran: Small AQ groups and cells were made in Iran, however Iran and AQ made peace through prisoner exchanges of high ranking members from each side, and made conditions not to harm each other. AQ members would travel through Pakistan (or directly from Afghanistan) and through Iran to get to Iraq.

4 – Iraq: AQ members would learn combat skills and gain battle experience to establish an Islamic state in Iraq, in the long term their plan was unsuccessful, but Iraq was the first testing ground for AQ for an Islamic state amongst the Arab people. Now the Islamic State of Iraq (ISI) continues its war against the Shi’a Nuri Maliki government.

5 – Yemen: Would learn lessons from combatants in Iraq, which would be useful for their newly forming AQAP (Al Qa’idah Arabian Peninsula in Yemen.) Like Iraq, Yemen AQAP is going through a war against the US forces because it is an extremely strategic land in land and on sea.

6 – Somalia – home for the AQ affiliate - Harakaat al Shabaab ([Islamic] Youth Movement). Like Yemen, Somalia is an extremely strategic land with a sea route (Gulf of Eden and the Red Sea) to import and export goods to Israel, Saudi Arabia and other US allies. AQ was able to use Somalian pirates who would Western cargo ships ‘the size of villages’, and keep their wealth as war booty or ransom it for millions of dollars, aswell as block any ships which would provide supplies to AQ enemies.

7 – Syria: During the 2011-12 Syrian revolution, AQ affiliate Jubhat al Nusra (the Face of Victory) rose as the leader of the Jihad in Syria, being the most advanced and experienced guerrilla force in Syria has made all revolutionaries depend on it because the rest of the world abandoned their cries for help. Western powers will not help the other revolutionaries because Jubhat al Nusra has infiltrated covertly into all other revolutionary groups too. This has made AQ the winner in Syria as it wants to free Muslim lands from Western influence and show the Muslims that they can achieve victory on their own.

Appendix 2: Black Flags from the East – the journey to Jerusalem:

The army which will come out of Khurasan (greater Afghanistan) will be from the East of Arabia. This map predicts the stages of the journey to Jerusalem, and I add some brief commentary on what will possibly happen in each stage:

1 – Afghanistan: The majority of Western led forces will leave Afghanistan by the end of 2012, or in the first half of 2013. With the pro-American Afghans and Pakistanis realising that the Western forces have left, they too will abandon the ambitions of the army they had enrolled onto (since they know they are not fighting for a cause worthy of death, unlike the Taliban and AQ who feel they are.)

2 – Afghan-Pak alliance: The Afghani Taliban and the Pakistani Taliban will merge and march forward with the Pakistanis. With Western forces withdrawing, the Pakistani army will feel less pressurised and will work with the Taliban and AQ – on the condition that they fight a common enemy – India.

2.5 – AQ inspired groups in Bangladesh will unite with the Afghan-Pak alliance.

3 – Indian (i.e. Assam) Muslims, and Myanmar Rohingya Muslims going through difficulties from the Indian government will unite against the Indian government, capturing their elite.

4 – Iran: the Shi’a of Iran will resist the newly formed Muslim alliance (which is now led by AQ in ideology). The Iranians will be annihilated for their treachery against the Taliban in previous years.

5 – Iraq: the Islamic State of Iraq (ISI) will merge with the AQ alliance, helping them against Iran (who gave a lot of difficulty to the Sunnis of Iraq) 6 – Syria: The AQ of Syria and Islamic revolutionaries will merge with the AQ alliance to increase their ranks further. It is possible that this is when the Malhamah (Armageddon) will take place against the Modern European Crusaders.

7 – Turkey: with the Modern European Crusade losing to the Muslims in the Malhamah, Turkey will be conquered without force by the Muslims. The Turks will return to Islam after being under the European influence since the time of Ataturk.

According to Islamic prophecy, someone will shout that the Anti-Christ (Dajjal) has arrived. When the people return to their lands, they will find that the rumour is false.

8 – Arabia: Muslims go to Arabia to find the Mahdi is in Makkah, they pledge allegiance to him.

9 – Yemen: The Yemeni’s arrive with 12,000 men from Abyan-‘Adn province (AQAP), men who are ‘the best between me and them’ (as said by Prophet Muhammad.) They will support the newly formed Mahdi army too.

9.5 – Egypt, Somalia and Libyan AQ groups will also merge with the Mahdi army.

10 – Israel: The newly formed AQ Mahdi army will march towards Jerusalem where they will truly see the Dajjal (Anti Christ) who will siege them in a fortress (Allah knows best how long.) As Dajjal dominates the Earth, the Muslims await for the descending of the true Messiah – Jesus son of Mary. He will descend in Syria and will kill the false Messiah in Ludd airport (as prophecised by Prophet Muhammad). The Ludd (Hebrew: Lod) airport is –as we speak now- a military airbase - Lod Air Force Base in Israel. (called: Lydda) [co-ordinates: 31°56′54.59″N 34°53′20.4″E]

With Jesus promising to arrive soon in the dreams of the 2nd people of Badr, we can only expect that all these events will happen in the upcoming years. With the intense difficulty coming our way will come extreme ease - Whoever rules Jerusalem, Rules the world. Muslims will therefore rule the word during the reign of Jesus son of Mary with a global peace and prosperity. But will we be of those chosen few who are mentioned in the previous scriptures to bring about that success? We ask Allah to make that so, ameen.

The shocking thing is that all Al Qa’idah affiliates (the Taliban included) - based on observation of events - are preparing for all these campaigns to start in the next few years.

Then when the final promise came, [We sent your enemies (to you O Jews!)] to sadden your faces and to enter the temple in Jerusalem, as they entered it the first time, and to destroy what they had taken over with [total] destruction.

[Then God said], "It is expected, [if you repent], that your Lord will have mercy upon you. But if you return [to sin], We will return [to punishment]. And We have made Hell, for the

disbelievers, a prison-bed."

(Quran – chapter: the Israelites 17: 7-8)

Allah (God) has promised those who have believed among you and done righteous deeds that He will surely grant them succession [to authority] upon the earth just as He granted it to those before them and that He will surely establish for them [therein] their religion which He has preferred for them and that He will surely substitute for them, after their fear, security, [for] they worship Me, not associating anything with Me. But whoever disbelieves after that - then those are the defiantly disobedient.

(Quran: the Light (al-Nur) 24:55)
