In issuing this invitation to Obama to accept Islam, Maulawy Anwarulhaq Mujahid is following Muhammad's instructions:
Fight in the name of Allah and in the way of Allah. Fight against those who disbelieve in Allah. Make a holy war...When you meet your enemies who are polytheists, invite them to three courses of action. If they respond to any one of these, you also accept it and withold yourself from doing them any harm. Invite them to (accept) Islam; if they respond to you, accept it from them and desist from fighting against them....If they refuse to accept Islam, demand from them the Jizya. If they agree to pay, accept it from them and hold off your hands. If they refuse to pay the tax, seek Allah's help and fight them. (Sahih Muslim 4294)
In other words, the three options are conversion, subjugation, or war.
"In Open Letter to Barack Obama, the Chief of Tora Bora Battlefield In Afghanistan Warns: The Flames of this Fire will Blow Up on Washington," from MEMRI, January 8 (thanks to M.):
In advance of Barack Obama’s upcoming inauguration as U.S. President, the Taliban in Afghanistan led by Mullah Omar have released an open letter. Entitled "An Open Letter to the White House from the Peaks of Tora Bora," the letter notes that Obama has created history by becoming the first African American to control the White House.The letter, dated December 27, 2008, urges him to create another history by accepting Islam. The letter was issued by Maulawy Anwarulhaq Mujahid, whose designation reads as the Chief of the Tora Bora Battlefield. It was simultaneously published in Pashtu, Urdu and English languages on the Pashtu language website, www.toorabora.com.
Following are some excerpts from the letter translated from the Urdu version:
"As Long as Baitul Muqaddas Remains in a State of Occupation, Israel and its Supporters will not Remain in Peace"
"President of the United States, Barack Hussein Obama!
"First of all, you must know that protection from the wretchedness in the world and the fire of Hell is only available in Islam. Islam is the only religion that guarantees success in this world and in the Hereafter.
"You are the first black in the U.S. history who has established control on the White House; you should also cause one more addition to the U.S. history by becoming the first president to accept the Truth and by adopting the true faith of Islam....
"Do you know that your nation has been pushed into a war against such an Ummah that is like a single body; there is a beginning to this war, but there is no end.
"America thinks that an attack on an Islamic country is just an attack on a single country; this view is wrong; this is why the war has been longer than your expectation, supplies [to troops] have been more than estimated, and loss [of soldiers’ lives] several times more than you thought of. This is not our claim; it is accepted by [George] Bush....[...]
"Immediately, withdraw all your troops from Afghanistan and other Islamic nations, apologize to the oppressed nations and own up the responsibility for all of their losses.
"Every incident has a cause and until these causes are eliminated, no incident can be prevented [against the U.S.]. The 9/11 attacks in the U.S. and all attacks have some or the other causes. In order to bring peace to your nation and benefits to America, you should try to find and eliminate these causes; which is about America’s failed policy on Israel. Israel is a source of mischief and conflict not only for the Middle East but for the entire world. [...]
"You have technological [Sic.] enemies here [in Afghanistan] who can never bear your occupation... Do you remember the defeat in Vietnam? You have once tested [your strength in] this place; it will be meaningless to try it again. But if you want to make this mistake again be prepared that the flames of this fire will blow up on the White House too, and one day situations like those in [the Afghan province of] Helmand and [the Iraqi town of] Fallujah will visit in the cities like New York and Washington....
Tiny Minority of Extremists™ Update:
"Afghans have the ability to fight every kind of war to protect their faith and nation. Most of those people you regard as your supporters, friends or slaves hate you... and they silently and by heart support the Mujahideen confronting you....
"Most of those people you regard as your supporters, friends or slaves hate you... and they silently and by heart support the Mujahideen confronting you...."
The above statement is true of almost the entire Pakistani Army and the ISI. I guess this is what the Afghan guy is referring to.
The problem with this issue is that the appeal to Obama's narcissism could compel him to 'submit'.
This was a threat not unlike that from Osama bin Laden to Bush. Obama knows this. What will he do about it? Nothing but disarm us. He wants as many 9/11s as he can pack into the next 4 years.
"Afghan jihadist to Obama: 'You should ... accept the Truth (and) by adopting the true faith of Islam"
Headline of the article.
OK, the call to convert is the first warning. We already know what comes next, and then what comes after that, don't we?
It really doesn't matter if Obama converts to Islam or not. The thibgs that matters is does he buy into the ideology of the left that says that Islam is a peaceful religion, that at its foundations it shares the same moral values as all other religions, especially Judeo/Christian moral values.
That's all it will take for Obama to continue down the same misguided, self-destructive road that past presidents have taken us down in our relations with Muslims and the Islamic world.
After 20 years in Jeremiah Wright's congregation, I strongly suspect that he'll be even worse than other Presidents.
No, he doesn't have to convert to Islam to lend aid and comfort to the Islamic terrorists, all he has to do deepen the ignorance of most Americans about the true nature of what Islam really is. That's the secondt thing to conversion.
Callidus to Afghani Jihadist:
You should make history by being the first caveman to drink more than 4 gallons of anti-freeze.
Just a thought.
Well, that just about sums up what's coming for the next 4 years. I've said it all along, the middle east is snickering behind USA's back with their perceived-as-muslim president.
Osama is damned if he does and he's damned if he doesn't. In islamo-disneyland, he is a muslim even if he has converted to Christianity (which really really remains to be seen.) AND-if he is seen as a muslim, how much of an insult is it that should he act in any manner on behalf of Israel? The insult would be double to the neo-pagans living in islamo-disneyland.
So, should he do ANYTHING construed as anti-islam, we are bound for another major terrorist attack in the States.
I kind of wish he would convert to islam. It would show SOME of the dhim-witted Americans that maybe he's not the golden boy messiah after all. Some, but not all, since the liberals will start in with the "Well, it's a free country and everyone has the freedom to...yada yada blah blah..." ad nauseum until the general populace doesn't care anymore if Osama is purple and an alien Borg from Star Trek who worships the collective.
"First of all, you must know that protection from the wretchedness in the world and the fire of Hell is only available in Islam. Islam is the only religion that guarantees success in this world and in the Hereafter.
Is that funny or what? So Islam guarantee's success in this world...Uh huh...Most of you guys don't even have soap, and if you did you would eat it, rather than wash...
And Obama??? What does he need Islam for, He's a Prophet (PBUH) in his own right...Didn't anyone tell this guy the The Prophet Obama (PBUH) is the 'one'.
Obama (PBUH) is not a Muslim, he is an avatar...he is already risen to that rare atmosphere of spiritual adept...he will lead us out of this valley of death, into golden fields of peace and plenty...
You too can have this vision if you take the right drugs...
January 20 should be a very interesting day. Recent reports from The One's people is that he will be taking the oath on a Bible, he will not be using his middle name & he will include "So Help Me God" when promising to uphold the Constitution of The United States. If this is all true, I can already hear the sound of millions of heads exploding.....
HEY! Do...Not...Question...The...One...
He knows...EVERYTHING!
When Our Mighty Comrade Obama opened his eyes, the universe sprung into existance. Furthermore, it has been proven CATEGORICALLLY, comrade, that Commissar Obama can clap with one hand, AND, when a tree falls in the forest, Obama hears it.
OUR SAVIOR!!!!

What a bunch of horseshit.
Obama received the same invitation as Bush. Does this make Bush "Comrade Bush"?
God, what incredible horseshit.
I was being sarcastic. Had you looked at my statement with the slightest amount of objectivity, you would've notice that.
I hardly think that there are any true "red star" commies on Jihad Watch. (except MAYBE Abdullah Mikail)
On that note, you must be a liberal. Only liberals toss swear words around like you did. I guess moral fiber is getting kinda hard to come by.
By the way, sorry if I interrupted your rant against Amerikkka.
Please proceed.
"America thinks that an attack on an Islamic country is just an attack on a single country; this view is wrong;
And that is how Muslims have seen the continuing "war on terror", in Iraq or Afghanistan, as a war against Islam.
I hope that Pres Obama continues Pres Bush's policy - in the sort-term he has no alternative, as it will continue to polarise not just the Islamic world, which is already polarised, but make Westerners realise that we have an enemy within. Israel, which is seen by Muslims as a Western puppet, and its action in Gaza, again works in our favour.
In time, most Muslims will realise that we are waging a new "crusade". We deny it. Over time Muslims will be seen as the enemy, and Muslims will feel it. Besides, the stress of living in enemy territory, where they are open to suspicion and interrogation, will encourage many to leave. Once this process begins, it will snowball, as the Islamic Jihad is dependent on positive growth of their population rather then the reverse.
Ironically, Pres Bush's policy, wittingly or unwittingly, was doing precisely this. I have an inkling that if we come out of this intact, historians will give Pres Bush a much kinder copy then he has been getting of late.
"Osama is damned if he does..."
Whoopsie, made a Freudian typo...My bad...
Should've been "Obama is damned if he does..."
Most of those people you regard as your supporters, friends or slaves hate you...
...........................
Americans don't regard *anyone* as their "slaves"--we just don't think in those terms. No Westerners do.
You only find this sort of rhetoric today among the members of the "Religion of Peace"--despite unsubstantiated claims from Abdullah Mikhail that Islam has done so much to end slavery...
That doesn't read as a very nice invitation. Maybe if Maulawy Anwarulhaq Mujahid would consult his Emily Post, he might get a better response.
How can we reply?
I know, why doesn't Vice President Cheney invite Mr. Mujahid to go hunting with him?
I hope Obama and the new cabinet do the right thing or.......I think it's time for the militias in the United States to clean the guns and prepare for the second American civil war to take back our country. I would rather be dead than be subjected to Islam and it's US puppets.
I know that is a radical statement but I fear that is what it is going to come down to unless Obama gets a pair and tells all the islamist to F-Off and die. I would rather we make war with Islam for a thousand years than submit to them. Actually I would rather we just nuke every damn Muslim country into oblivion and be done with it.
Let them know we mean business and won't be pushed around by a bunch of back-ass donkey fu*king apes.
Stupid muslims - Obama was a muslim and now he has clensed himself from the islamic filth.
Hey, Maulawy Anwarulhaq Mujahid, do even five of you guys own a car?
Bring your pickup truck wavin', camel honkin', crew up 500 years, and then maybe, maybe we'll talk, um-kay.
Is that your wife, or is that your uncle, behind you with the robes and back pack humpin' goin' on, leading the burrow, we couldn't really tell.
Oh, it is your uncle, sorry.
I guess those London and LA threads got to me a bit, is all.
Raising this issue is like anything else Obama doesn't want or know how to deal with. It's a distraction. He can put up with it. He's proven he can put up with a lot already:
the anti-constitutionalism of Ayres (violent overthrow of the US Governmen) - but a means to the funds of Chicago's Left.
the violent racism of Reverend Wrght - but he was learning how to be an American black - and to be accepted as black.
debating everthing but the issues in the debate - but claiming that the issues are distrations, he can deflect them and say let's "deal with the issues".
He loves his family; his aunt and illegal immigrant who's living on Boston's bucks, his brother, George - getting wallpaper to stick to the sides of a tin shanty is hard; his brother Obongo, who 'turned his life around, found his African roots and Islam (which one?) and doesn't drink or smoke. "We're all proud of him."
Afghan Jihadist Mujahid's threats are typical of the method used by those in bondage to the depravity of Islamic thought which he is using to cause fear. Is there any other religious law as vicious, vile, and corrupt as Islamic law. Through past centuries Islam has managed to take captive the minds and souls of countless peoples on Planet Earth. Islam has deceived and seduced by its counterfeit god called Allah. Too many Americans and Christians have not recognized truth about this world wide evil which has been hidden under a false claim of "religion of peace" while ruling by fear. We must of necessity judge this evil in the bright light of "true truth". Though our nation is founded on principles of moral law endowed by our Creator, the battle of good versus evil requires judgment from a greater authority. Unmasking the satanic ideas in Islam by contrasting them with the truths set forth by the One True God as revealed in the Holy Scriptures is the only way evil can be overcome by good. Jesus said,"Overcome evil with good." and "Only God is good." It is time to prepare to do so.
