Turnabout is fair play, I suppose. From the BBC, with thanks to Jeffrey Imm and Richard:
A group of armed, masked men have issued a public warning to Jordanian militant Abu Musab al-Zarqawi to leave Iraq on pain of death.A previously unknown group, calling itself the Salvation Movement, accused him of murdering innocent Iraqis and defiling the Muslim religion.
The men said unless he left immediately he would be hunted down and killed.
Mr Zarqawi and his followers have been blamed for a string of attacks in Iraq and the beheading of foreign hostages.
"We have started preparing... to capture him and his allies or kill them and present them as gift to our people," one of the men said in the video, broadcast on the Dubai-based al-Arabiya TV network.
"We will do to you what the coalition forces have failed to do."
The warning extended to the friends, followers and protectors of Mr Zarqawi.
"This is the last ultimatum to those who give him shelter. This is the last warning," the masked man says.
The statement accused the fugitive of "heinous acts which killed innocents" in attacks across Iraq.
"What religion is he clinging to? Islam is a religion of forgiveness," it said, condemning the murder of foreign workers and threats against interim Prime Minister Iyad Allawi.
Not that they're being all that forgiving themselves, but I for one am willing to forgive them that.
This is some of the best news to come out of Iraq in months .We all no how al Zaraqwi will respond to these threats which means with a bit of luck he's as good as dead.
This is truly good news; Zarqawi deserves a fate worse than anyone could ever cook up for him. I just wish the condemnation of Zarqawi & Co.'s activities by this new secret militant organization, "The Salvation Movement," had been broader and more inclusive. As best I could see, the condemnation included only Iraqis and Muslims. As far as I can tell, the word "innocent" does not include U.S. military personnel, or, in fact, any Infidel.
My concern is that since Islam is their law, and since Infidels of any description are legitimate prey, that once they have rid this earth of the Zarqawi scum, members of the Coalition will be their next target.
Better yet, I wish the effort to get rid of Zarqawi had been initiated and led by the new government of Iraq rather than by masked men operating in secret.
I guess some mlsums don't want to die for this cause of these freeks like rasa does???
Neither do those 21 in N.J who took out the add who said don't blame Us well we will have to think about that look at what our Grandparents did in WW2 and they forgave them selfs and Now the mexicons tried to arrest our Marines who were there to burry a Marine so we have to boycott them too!
