Former Gitmo inmate, now a deputy in al-Qaeda in the Arabian peninsula, urges 9/11-style attacks on Israel, assassinations of Arab leaders

This guy again. He can sure spin a yarn, too, as shown below, but his novel would lack continuity. "Yemen: Al-Qaeda no.2 urges '9/11' style Jihad against Israel," from AdnKronos International, August 19:

Rome, 19 August (AKI) - A top Al-Qaeda commander in Yemen has urged Arab military pilots to fly their planes into Israeli targets replicating the deadly 11 September 2001 attacks on American cities, the Daily Beast website reported.
The Yemen branch of Al-Qaeda's second-in-command, Saeed al-Shehri, purportedly issued the call in an audio message, the Daily Beast said.
In the message, Al-Shehri ordered jihadists to exploit a future war between the Jewish State and Iran.
An all-out regional war is expected to break out after Israel launches a strike again Tehran's nuclear facilities, al-Sheri said.
Iran's Shia government will blame Saudi Arabia for helping Israel attack its nuclear installations and will use this as an excuse to seize the holy Saudi cities of Mecca and Medina, he predicted.

After Israel took out its nuke facilities and Iran tied up its resources in retaliating?

Israel will seize fresh territory in the Middle East to establish "the greater state of Israel," he claims.

So the jihadists will lose again and demand a do-over?

The "Shura Council of the Mujahadeen in the Arabian Peninsula" has held a meeting to prepare for such a war, al-Shehri said.
He urged followers to assassinate Arab leaders, citing the example of the "tyrant Anwar Sadat," the Egyptian president murdered by Islamic radicals.
Shehri was held in the US prison camp at Guantanamo for six years after being caught in Pakistan in December 2001. After being sent back to his native Saudi Arabia, he fled to Yemen and helped set up Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula.

Gee, that went well.

He has been a strategist for AQAP and terrorism experts say he was behind the plot to assassinate Saudi Arabia's deputy interior minister, Muhammad bin Nayef last year which only narrowly failed.

Ah yes, the one of the PlayStation and ping pong rehabilitation program in Saudi Arabia.
Trained by Libyans, captured at a Pakistani-Afghan border crossing and in the company of a Saudi Red Crescent worker and a Saudi from the Saudi embassy in Pakistan. And once returned to Saudi Arabia from Guantanamo and fully rehabilitated and integrated with a monthly stipend he was according to his father "influenced" by bad people to go to Yemen. Right after Ramadan, of course. And now probably "influenced" to go it all the way to the top.

Muslims sure are quick to order other Muslims to their deaths.....

The islamists mission to destroy Israel and the West is based upon religious convictions and a zeal which they believe to be mandated in their holy book.

The Lockerbie bomber Abdelbaset Ali al-Megrahi was supposedly to have 3 months to live when released, but now its found not to be the case.

The West are easily fooled by Islamists.

When dealing with Islamists bent on destroying the West you should deal with them the way the Russians deal with Islamists in Checnya

Robert,

I wrote about Fiesel Rauf and his connection with Momar Khadafy. Together he and Fiesel Rauf helped fund the Flotilla, supported Hamas and Free Gaza. On his trip to the Middle East ( paid by our government ) he is going to Lybia. Imagine that.

The West are easily fooled by Islamists.

Easily fooled because we choose to be easily fooled. 50 years of political correctness, too many do-gooders and too many flower children, all screaming "Racist" and "Bigot" at anyone who dares to tell the truth about what we're facing today. We have none of the solid upright citizens of yesteryear who fought for very the freedoms we currently enjoy but are now sacrificing bit by bit over the course of this century. These citizens saw off Hitler and Tojo by mid-1945, the Turks in 1683 and the invading Moors in 732 during their prime, and I'm sure the remaining survivors of the Battle of Britain back in 1940 could never have envisaged what they would live to see 70 years later. The flower children who followed the greatest generation have so much to answer for, and I'm afraid the present Imagine-indoctrinated flower generation will be followed by more of the same. What the West will be like 100 years from now, I hardly dare think.
