Hamas has threatened this also. From AFP, with thanks to Twostellas:
GAZA CITY (AFP) - Radical Palestinian faction Islamic Jihad has threatened to attack US interests to avenge any harm inflicted on its leader after the United States put a five-million-dollar price on his head."Any harm to the secretary general of Islamic Jihad will endanger American interests everywhere in the region," Abu Ahmed, a spokesman for Jihad's military wing, the Al-Quds Brigades, said in a statement Tuesday.
On Monday, the United States offered five million dollar rewards for the capture of Damascus-based Jihad leader Ramadan Abdullah Mohammad Shallah and a member of Lebanon's Shiite Hezbollah militia, Mohammed Ali Hamadei.
Both are on the FBI's most-wanted terrorist list.
"The Al-Quds Brigades, together with all the resistance factions, will confront decisively any American stupidity against the leaders of the Palestinian people, whatever their allegiance," the group added.
The spokesman threatened the US secret services and their agents in the region with a "wave of violent attacks targeting all American interests if they come to harm secretary general Shallah or any other symbol of the resistance."
HOW MUCH? AND HOW LONG TO PAY?
Sending Condi with cash.
Why waste time trying to capture them? Better to zap them and be done with it. As for the threats of retaliation there's nothing new there-the evil ones will do as they always do regardless.
oooooh, me scared ! That's all the more reason to take him out, just for making him a target. Our system of laws just don't zap people like the islamics do. Nah, we'll wait and pull him in; hook line and sinker too ! It'll be like rat hunting in Iraq when they found Saddam.
What do these muslims clowns mean "threaten?" They HAVE ALREADY BEEN attacking american interests all over the world for a long time. Time to put togeather a joint American-Israeli hit squad and go after these islamic insects in their own homes (aka their hovels). When their leaders suddenly start turning up dead the next day, watch how fast the rest will shut up!
Please, oh please lets get the ball rolling. If they were to attack American interests, would we sit idley by?
"American stupidity"??
Our agents are well aware of the dangers to all of Americas interests and they are going to kill you anyway!!
If you lived in a pig pen of a hovel in a "nation" of losers that dont know anything but killing themselves and everyone else; 5 mil. would start to look REAL GOOD!
Hey Abu--Watch your back!!
It definitely is time to reconsider one's retirement and become a bounty hunter.
And maybe bring along a camera crew and call it:
Dawg, the Bounty Hunter.
So others could vicariously enjoy the capture or killing of these rabid snake jihadis.
It might help focus the mush dope brains of the surrender monkey Dems.
Every episode would begin with hateful quotes from the koran, and images of muslim kids in indoctrination madrasses, coupled with the lying statements of Ibrahim Hooper.
"Threaten American interests"? They already threaten and do more than merely threaten, American interests. The 278 Marines in Lebanon killed by Hezbollah are not Americans who are "threatened" but dead. William Buckly, the C.I.A. agent in Beirut, was long ago tortured to death. The American citizens killed by Islamic Jihad are already dead, and many more would be dead were it not for the constant, unceasing detective work of the Israelis.
And yet these are among the people who are outraged that the Jizyah of aid to assorted "Palestinians" (the name given to the local Arabs who are the shock troops of the Lesser Jihad against Israsel) should even temporarily be halted. And the world's press relays, or repeats, without comment, the very idea that such a halt in completely undeserved aid, that is a halt in this particular transfer of wealth from Infidels to Muslims (as if the ten trillion dollars given to Muslim states in OPEC since 1973 were not quite enough), an "economic blockade" or "boycott." Since when, if you choose not to give assitance to someone or some thing become an economic "boycott" or "blockade"?
If one chooses to no longer give a cent, say, to the univeristy one has attended, because it has become obvious that that former staid but sober academic institution has inexorably become a grasping corporation with inflated salaries for its administrators, and with a teaching staff not entirely, but mostly full of self-promoters who, in the fields that matter most to be, are content to dish out to their semi-starved students the thin gruel of intellectual fashion ("post-modern or postcolonial or postsomethingorother discourse about Western world's putative mistreatment of 'the Other,' along with humorless and exaggerated complaints -- good especially for women on the make intent on riding this particular hobby-horse right to the top -- about the Wehrmacht-helmetted phallic hegemony of men, when the place you had long ago atteneded, the place you thought still existed (and that is something the Development Office of that university or college, the beating heart of it all, still wants you to think, until they relieve you of still more of your allowance) and that you would support, had it remained an educational institution dedicated, however imperfectly, mainly to the advancement and diffusion of knowledge.
No "blockade" or "boycott" there if you don't remember them in your will or give to them now. And no "blockade" or "boycott" of the "Palestinians" if we insist that they get their absurd handouts, inevitably to be used to conduct the Lesser Jihad against Israel (there is no evidence, none, to the contrary), from fellow members of the malevolent Umma, the Community of Believers, of Islam.
"Threaten American interests"? Any further attacks on the United States will lead to such a sea-change, now that the ground has been or is being prepared, in the attitude toward Islam, and toward those in our midst to carry within them that belief-system, and sole loyalty to it and to fellow Muslims, that the consequences will be great, beginnning with the creation, of an atmosphere as intelligently hostile to the belief-system of Islam, and its adherents, as the American public was hostile to the Nazis during World War II, or to Communists and Communist sympathizers and collaborators during the Cold War. Such an intelligent response has been slow in the coming, but as people inform themselves, and are able to make sense of all their dimly perceived suspicions and jumble of observations that merely require the explanatory theory that will make sense of the data already accumulated, and possess predictive value for the future, there will be no stopping them. And those who think they can "threaten America" more than they do will have regretted making that assumption.
Shudder and " apologise and apologise " ( shall we call them kafir boogeyman nothings KBN nothings , the entire world will zip up their lips as NUMEROLOGY can wreak havoc for the EVIL , Yess !!!) and " somehow accidentally press the * wrong * button. All accidents are truly friendly accidents ( a planned one is not an accident all know and agree or do we really need Kindergarden Cop I enjoyed that movie to enforce and teach methinks so) as far as we the SANE are concerned . What the ORAL METHANE gas emissions are MALEVOLENTLY ENGINEERED .
So logically speaking , when someone feels thirsty you give water.
See my ratiocination is in the " rock back & forth " wah wah eliciting style. I am also going equally berserk.
Assalamau Laikum all,
It is interesting to try and fathom the meaning behind the statements made by both sides.
The Amerike are keen on capture...and obviously have failed miserably on intel...and it shows a kind of desperation by offering oddles of money. If it works...then it's probably worth it.
But perhaps they could extend this further by saying that there is a no strings attached immigration for the informer and his immediate famility to the US (except for Montana)....after all they will have been of immense service to you.
The Pal group ofcourse are keen on non-capture and have put out a no nonsense wide ranging "deterrence" note.
This is to apply to the Amerike AND to locals in the know. For their immediate comrades ...it's a question of loyality...no winners there.
For those slightly further away, it's question of the ummah, Islam, Mujahadin ...and whether these Islamic values can be traded versus Amerike dollars. Those who are of the faith will see this as corruption against Allah SWT ...and you won't get very far.
Those who are a little distance away from this group...and wily opportunists...may well trade one and all for the $5M. This is the best chance I guess that the Amerike have.
My advice - Keep manning those phones...you don't want to miss the really important one.
Naseem
I hear the CIA are looking for recruits - maybe you would enjoy the work ? failing that M15 are also recruiting - look on their web page - chose the winning side - you must KNOW we will prevail in the end - what you are witnessing now is nothing more than the death throws of a defunct 7th century cult that should have died a long time ago.
$5M. What difference will this make? Well let's see.
Maybe somebody will turn Shallah in. Maybe not. And maybe Shallah doesn't care, being the big, strong jihadi that he is. Or maybe he does care, just an eentsy, beentsy bit. Maybe he will want to change his own security to adjust to the bounty. A few less phone calls here, greater caution in movement there. Overall, a heightened awareness that there are those watching for changes in the patterns of phone chatter, changes in activity, perhaps able to guess what these changes mean.
Anybody remember how unimpressive Khalid Shaikh Mohammed looked after his arrest?

Bring it on!
Ultimatly attacking American interests will advance American interests. This is because after we export our greatest of products/services to your sorry land, we will import anything worth owning now that we own the place. We "pay" for Mid East oil because we can. We can also take it if we need to. If you have nothing that we want then you can go die. The exterminator shouldn't feel sorry for the bugs.
Islam is a social disease.
ick
Unless this Mulimurderer has intelligence information, there is no reason at all to risk anyone's life in trying to capture this kook.
A well placed supersonic aluminum bullet solves the problem, defuses blame and solves the problem. Also saves 5 million bucks.
"The Amerike are keen on capture"
....I do suppose being keen on death like the Muslims would probably be better.....but then dead people cannot give information....I am going to see the root lady and have a curse placed upon his head....
....Islam is faltering and has resorted to name calling and frantically trying to impress the world by killing the ice cream man, the barbers, and the garbage collectors...you know, the really dangerous people....
Send in Mossad. They'll find them and 'eliminate' the problem.
US "intelligence," multiple pallie terror groups, death threats, the cia, the fbi, a weak and unstable Israel, a weak and unstable US currently losing a war close by, and an incompetent US administration that doesn't work for US citizens.
This should turn out well.
The jihadis undoubtedly are laughing all the way to masjid.
hey Naseem you could prol get some real muszlim men in your heaven, so why dont you strap on a bomb belt and go to it girl! yeah that bag you cover youself would really hide a huge bomb belt at that! go capture the hammas boys! go naseems go nasemms!
wasn't the reward dead or alive???????????
So, Hamas is Bully-Boy ONCE AGAIN?! Poor little picked on pretend to-be victim - my heart bleeds in grief, although now not flowing as rapidly as Hamas has in mind for me when it gets its clutches around my neck (minus my head, that is)! Let's face it! Hamas is ISLAMIC, Islam is total irredeemable EVIL & DEATH & DOOM & HATE ad infinitum....
I am REALLY ANGRY and Glaring that OBBstinately carcasssy long deaddd obnoxxious uncoootheeeeemundammmpunampindammm still putrefying this domain with Amerike and prussicckkkk VVVVENOMMM .
