Zarqawi
Al-Qaeda has claimed responsibility for the jihad at sea. Note the religious characterization of the American forces: they "came to raise the Christian banner in Muslim countries."
DUBAI (Reuters) - A statement apparently from top al Qaeda operative Abu Musab al-Zarqawi claimed responsibility on Monday for a suicide boat attack on Iraq's Basra oil terminal at the weekend and vowed more attacks on coalition targets."We give you good tidings... your brothers with their boats targeted oil tankers in Mina al-Amiq and Mina al-Bakr," said the statement signed by Zarqawi and published on Muntada al-Ansar Islamist Web site.
Basra terminal, previously known as Mina al-Bakr, accounts for 85 percent of Iraq's crude exports.
Three U.S. navy sailors died from the attack in which bombers in three boats blew themselves up in and around the Basra terminal zone, one of the most heavily guarded facilities of its kind in the world. ...
"As what your brothers, the al Qaeda lions, did to the destroyer Cole in Aden port, they have repeated this attack in a new garb and with stubborn determination by striking vital economic links of the infidel and atheist states which came to raise the Christian banner in Muslim countries," it said.
"We tell you enemies of God, robbers of oil and riches and drug traders...O snakes of evil, we will exterminate and debilitate you by land, sea and air until God makes us victorious or until we die," the statement added.

Victory or death for Zarqawi? I vote death, except the potential martyr won't stand still long enough. Doesn't he want his virgins courtesy of the USMC?
jihadunspun is full of crap.
Jihad unspun is an American hate site.....Adolph, I mean Aleph......Jihad unspun is an Al Jazeera rip off on the net, telling lies trying to make rapists, kidnappers, killers, and basic chicken dump cowards that hide behind the skirts of women, look brave.
Trying to make these pigs look like they're noble and valiant as they fight the occupiers (us). Another fantasy website for those who hate all that is good, decent, courageous, and peaceful in the world.
The political symbol, the red, white, and blue, "Old Glory," is not a religious banner. The only religious banner that appears there are the green or black banners of Islam under which Sadr's thuggish henchmen battle.
They call it a crusade, yet there are no religious symbols to be seen, nor has the Pope or any Christian religious leader called for a Crusade. As for Bush's mistake, the word Crusade in America is used as a battle against some social evil, Crusade against smoking, the Crusade against drugs, etc. The difference between "a modern crusade" and "modern jihad" is that one does not see Americans throwing bombs nor shooting up cigarette manufacturers in the Crusade against smoking, but one does see violence of this kind in the jihad against everyone.
Yes EPG, for Islam in its followers eyes, is not only a religion, but is also a race, and a nationality.....and this.....is why they create so many problems......it's called tunnel vision I think.
This is odd for Al-Qeada to take credit for a largely unsuccessful attack, they must really need publicity. It's also interesting this guy talks about drug traders when drug dealing is one of Al Qeada's main sources of income.
Tell those bastards we have cleaned our rifles with pig fat and dipped our bullets in pigs blood. Now we are coming for them!
"...O snakes of evil, we will exterminate and debilitate you by land, sea and air until God makes us victorious or until we die"
Well, since you put it that way.... ;^D
I'm starting to think that they're just taking credit for whatever happens right now. If we really have taken out as many as the Administration reports, then it might follow that their ops have been severely crippled and they have to do more 'stirring up the pot' as it were.
And to just think we could throw pigs at them and be done with it.
So if I wear a pork chop around my neck (much like garlic) am I safe from these jackals?
