Over at the Counterterrorism Blog the ever-insightful Walid Phares has posted a preliminary explanation and analysis of the new videotape from Azzam the American, aka Adam Yehiye Gadahn. A few choice details:
The video tape issued by al Qaeda’s “as-sahhab” production, in which Ayman Zawahiri introduces Jihadist Adam Gahdan to the world as a senior speaker to the American people on behalf of the movement, should be taken seriously. Not necessarily at the level of detecting the next Terror attack but at the level of understanding this prelude to Future Jihad both in America and within the West. I wasn’t surprised at all by the 45 minutes elaboration by convert Gahdan regarding all of the issues he raised. For “Azzam al Amrikee” is the clearest specimen of Jihadism’s second generation within the US, in as much as the 7/7 videos revealed the type of future Jihadists for Great Britain’s second generation.[...]
In short, the “Azzam” video reconfirms clearly, in an English language that academic translators won’t be able to distort, that al Qaeda’s movement worldwide and in the United States is seeking total annihilation or conversion of the enemy: American and other democracies.
4) Argumentation tactics:
The “speech writer,” emulating many commentators on al Jazeera or al Manar, hopes to rally many among those who “hate Bush and Blair” but stops short of stating that Jihadism will hate all future US Presidents and British Prime Ministers “if they do not convert.” He reminds us of the Crusades, Inquisition, Hiroshima, and killings in Iraq and Afghanistan. Obviously, the “writer” skips the Genocides of Sudan, and the massacres of Algeria, the Kurds, Shiites perpetrated by Salafists or Baathists.
5) The enemies of Jihad in America
Sensationally but not unexpectedly, he “name[s]” a number of intellectual-enemies in this country: Daniel Pipes, Steven Emerson, Robert Spencer and Michael Spencer. Rarely Jihadi Terrorists at this high level media exposure named symbols of their enemy’s intelligentsia. And in addition to “experts” named in the tape, Gadahn goes on a ferocious attack against American “Tele-Evangelists” and their media, showing the other type of foes al Qaeda is very upset with.
By "Michael Spencer" Phares means Michael Scheuer. Gadahn rails against "the Zionist Crusaders, missionaries of hate and counter Islam consultants like Daniel Pipes, Robert Spencer, Michael Scheuer, and Steve Emerson." I am honored to be in this company, of course, and pleased to see that Al-Qaeda has noticed my work and is unhappy with it.
Maybe Adam Gadahn is angry with me for describing him a couple of years ago as he appears in an old photo: as a "pudgy, long-haired American kid who appears to be locked in a desperate, losing struggle to grow a beard." Adam, I see from more recent photos that you have won that struggle, for which I congratulate you. In your larger struggles, however, you will not prevail.
Laura Mansfield has made the tape available here.

And wow. There's no ringing endorsement like the disapproval (by name!) of al Qaeda. Congratulations.

ROBERT: "I am honored to be in this company, of course, and pleased to see that Al-Qaeda has noticed my work and is unhappy with it."
You can tell as much about a man from his enemies as you can from his friends.
On a night when I'm sitting at home watching TV with my little family, knocking down a few beers, marveling at my daughter's precociousness and verve, still in love with my wife after all these years even though I take her for granted in one way or another every single day...
...I have to say that it's great to be alive....it's beautiful to inhale the first chilled air of impending Autumn 2006 as a free human being.
I'm looking at my daughter at this very moment, contemplating all the potential paths of her future...and marveling at the possibilities.
That's what Jihadwatch is all about.
Thanks Robert....(and Hugh).

There is only one word to describe Gadahn: Loser.
In fact that word is an apt description for all muslims.
at September 2, 2006 11:02 PM
His Orange County Imam was on CNN a few minutes ago, and claimed that Adam is not the kind of person that Islam wants inviting other to embrace the faith.
Of course, he also told the anchor, Carol Lin, that Islam is a religion of peace.
And he also stated that if he could, he would tell the president to stop the wars, because they were just increasing the terrorism.
Standard, unchallenged schtick.

Once upon a time little boys would join the Cub Scouts. Or even before they were old enough to do that, they would sit outside, circa 1955, in their prefabricated log cabin bought by their parents, wearing their coonskin caps and hats and packing their pistols, on weekends and even on schooldays before -- or was it after? -- Kate Smith sang "When the Moon Comes Over the Mountain." And in their heads just one haunting melody: "Born on a mountaintop in Tennesssee/Killt him a bar when he was only three/Davy/Davy Crockett/King of the wild frontier."
And then there were the ten-cent comic books (12 cents, going up to 15 cents, for "Classics Illustrated" that the intellectuals often read), and one could also model oneself on Huey, and Dewey, and Louie, who were members of the mysterious Junior Woodchucks of America.
Now for the latter-day lindhs and gadahns, who crave a Collective to Belong To, one that will supply to them a Total Regulation of Life and aComplete Explanation of the Universe, singing up as recruits for the Army of Islam satisfies in a way, apparently, that the Junior Woodchucks, or Davy-Crockett fan club, or Cub Scouts (wolf, lion, bear) cannot possibly supply. And what's more, for the adam-gadahns, who want desperately to submerge themselves in a collective -- think of that beer-garden scene in the movie of "Cabaret" in which the young German boys start singing, one by one, and then in unison, some Nazi song -- they also want, some of them, to be recognized, want to Be Somebody.
Autres temps, autres moeurs. And to our great misfortune, the thing which they have chosen to belong to, to give their mediocre lives meaning, is the umma al-islamiyya, the Collective of Islam, and a fierce hatred of the Infidels among whom they were once counted. Not for them any solitude, any uncertainty. They want the Group, they want the Certitude. And Adam Gadahn clearly wants a little more -- he wants fame even as he seems to be willing to submerge himself in the collective. A fascinating mix.
Wrenching for them, dangerous for us. The Junior Woodchucks would have been a better choice.

Congradulations.
It seems Al Queda threw down the gauntlet and Challeged those in the west to "Speak the Truth" then attacked you for doing that.
Nice to see that their "Truth" is being challenged.
My congradulations on making the enemy aware that there are those on this side of the world that will not yeild. Will not lay down, and will not let Jihad establish its world wide reign of terror.
Its very telling that every day the Islamicist kill more Muslims that the US or the West does.
The West attempts to free the Muslim people from the Oppression of the Islamofacists isnt just for our benefit but theirs.
This video shows the world they would create. And out efforts in Iraq prevent that from happening.
Thanks for fighting the good fight against an enemy as evil as the Nazis.

You must be doing something right to warrant recognition by the demons of al Qaeda. I notice they don't mention Karen Armstrong or Esposito, or any of the hundreds of apologists teaching sugar-coated lies about islam in American universities.
The liberals and left-wingers are already joining the muslim seditionist chorus to condemn Bush's use of the term "Islamic fascism", and no doubt they will now attempt to discredit the people on al Qaeda's blacklist. Many of them agree with Ghadan's vision of America as an evil, imperial power so I expect to hear cries for more appeasement, self-flagellation, apologies, and "dialogue." This war would be so much easier to win if every American was fighting it, but about a third are ready to surrender and about a third are oblivious to the threat. That leaves the rest of us, and we can't win it alone. Let's hope the televangelists aren't silenced because they reach a large audience. I don't agree with everything they espouse, but they understand the threat of islam and that makes them crucial allies in this fight.
It is rather disturbing to realize how attuned these savages are to the outspoken, anti-jihad voices in America, few that there are. The liberals did everything they could to stop the appointment of Daniel Pipes, let's see what they have to say now. Odd are, they will accuse him of "inflaming' al Qaeda.

By the way, I just read the new graphic adaptation (by Sid Jacobson and Ernie Colon) of the 9/11 commission report. Yup, it's a 130-page comic book version of the 9/11 report, and while it no doubt has whatever shortcomings the report had, it's great otherwise. I finished it in a day.

I regret I must disagree with Robert. I think the beard looks fake, the color is too homogeneous and dark. Should have used henna instead of Just-For-Men.
Does anyone else find it ironic to see Al-Qaeda using an former infidel sitting in front of an infidel made computer monitor and an infidel made video camera reading off of a infidel made teleprompter to lecture infidels? Why gamble so much on this pathetic freak?
I can't wait for the exciting replays of videos of Mr. and Mrs. Gadahn begging Adam to come home (like they ever gave a sh_t about him to let him get like this in the first place).

Good job, Adam Pearlman, you have done well to rise from a Jewish child to the higher echelon of al Qaeda in such a short time. You will now be captured soon, having led the infidel to Sheikh Zawahiri. The globalist pigs no longer require your service, and the loss of al Qaeda #2 will insure the reelection of Bush's (may peace be upon him) crusader party. Hezbollah's rise has overshadowed your impotence and the power of the cross stands tall against the moon and six star.

One mroe thing for the Jihadists that roam this site
Where is your faith ? Where is your great belief ?
Here is Osama and his underlings hiding in some cave far away from anyone. He will never set foot in the holy city of Mecca again. He and his followers will never see The holy city of Islam and Mohammed again.
I thought God was on your side ? Then why are you hiding in caves ? Why are you afraid to come out ? If God is on your side then you have nothing to fear.
But fear you do. Hide in caves you do. You show us daily the strenght of your faith. You will never go back to Islam's holy sites because you know that God does NOT walk with you.
No like old women and cowards you hide in caves and know Allah has abandoned you.
I am a practicing Chrisitian can visit any of the holy sites of my Religeon. Why ? because I know that God is on my side and I do not fear the likes of you.
So dont sit in some cave pronouncing your great piety and worth when all I see is cowardice and lack of faith.

You are being more objective than I, Hugh. I admit I'm only thinking of how I would feel -- and how that would help me find a way to get the money for books and travel and to go to D.C.
Anyway, my threat of distributing books to Congress was intended to scare Bin Laden into leaving Robert alone. If I were to pull out all the stops now, as you suggest I should, I'd lose all my leverage over Usama, and nothing would hold him in check.
But seriously, I did preorder five copies of The Truth about Muhammad a couple of weeks ago. And your words have made me start asking myself: Next time I'm in D.C., what would I actually need to do to get meetings with congresspersons so I could give them copies?
I'm also researching a petition I'd like to post on the internet together with links that would make it extremely easy for people to send the petition to their congressional representatives. Haven't decided whether the petition should ask for stronger limits on immigration from Muslim nations, or for requiring new loyalty oaths to the Constitution and legally binding disavowals of Sharia and Islamic supremacism.

Nyone - that's what I thought, there is something wrong with his mouth. Maybe that's why he is so angry and, relatedly, why he can't get laid on earth (hoping for the sex slaves in Muslim heaven). If he weren't a terrorist I would feel sorry for him because of that. However, that does not apply here.
What a dickhead.
What a nasty repulsive dickhead.

His lip-smacking and eye movements are telling.
From a post at LGF.
Adam Gadahn appears to be under the influence of speed--I'm guessing dexadrine. Watch the video of him talking and notice how his lips make a clicking sound, especially in the beginning of his speech. It's not just that his mouth is dry from nervousness, either. That pronounced clicking is a tip-off.
Also, he's very wordy, sometimes just reading a placard but he expands on what he's reading also. Watch his eyes.

Better yet, if you and Robert wrote such a petition it would be really powerful, and if being a 501c3 organization is a hindrance to doing that, you could hand it off to someone else to permanently post on the internet together with links to congress.
Right now, the most powerful writers critical of jihad, etc., don't do anything directly to organize people to impact Congress. We need to set something up that makes it supereasy for people to send a coherent message about all this to our reps.

Memo to President Bush, Secretary Rice, and others who get behind a microphone or in front of a camera: The term is Islamo Fascist. Not "Insurgent" or some other mealy mouthed word that skates around the fact that Fascist groups have taken over management in much of the world of Islam. The Saudi Sheiks don't do anything without checking with the Wahabbis and this has been true for a couple hundred years. As time goes on, more and more countries are seeing the "Clerics" telling the Government how things will be. Chances of the "Peacock Throne" being restored in Iran (Persia) are essentially zero. So, the Mullahs will continue to run the country into the ground while building fine new weapons. Same story in Somalia and other African countries.
The recent video by Adam the Traitor tells it all in the form of "Convert or Die". That is a Theocratic Dictatorship at work and we must fight it as our Constitution says we must. That means the proper term is really Islamo-Fascist.

I'm about half finished viewing the video. There's no doubt in my mind what Gahdan and al Zawahari are saying.
As Dr. Phares noted, over at the Counterterrorism Blog, Adam Gahdan's rant was "delivered in an English language that academic translators won’t be able to distort".
And in an equally undistortable act, Gahdan was introduced, in the video, by al Zawahari.
One of our problems in the West is the constant reminders, from CAIR and similar organizations, that Islam has been hijacked by extremists.
I wonder how they'll discredit Gahdan without having to tell al Zawahari that he, too, misunderstands the ROP.

There are a lot of radio talk show hosts, TV commentators, and other pundits who are kicking their dogs tonight because they missed the list. Congratulations for hitting a nerve (and thank you).
This twerp should be given wide coverage. Americans are wary of ‘bible-thumpers’, and will be downright reactionary when they are introduced to failed young men in turbines. Back when I was struggling to get the attention of females, the lies were much simpler.
Muslims are harsh against the unbelievers, merciful to one another. - 48:25; Slumming times ten.
Writing tonight from the ‘human farm which these men and women control’. I think that means you, Host. Hope you’ve got a flexible deal with your publisher.

In an effort to spare other JW fans the excruciating nausea of sitting through Gadahn's, "blah blah... Islam is the truth...blah blah; just fast forward the video to 33:21 to hear him give props to Robert. Priceless!
Towards the end, Gadahn proclaims, "Allah has full power and control over his affairs but most of them among mankind do not know that. Gadahn has a point; I sure didn't know that Allah had full control over his Earth and Earthlings including, the Crusades, the destruction of the Taliban, and the creation of the Jewish state, among other events. Allah knows best.

Couldn't watch the whole video, it was too "stoopid" as we say here on the East Coast.

A lot of folks are going to be very surprised to find out that to Muslims, Allah IS the god of Christianity.

This Adam Gadahn joins Lord Haw-Haw and Tokyo Rose as another English voice of an enemy. Albeit, he can hardly be compared to his skilled predecessors. His delivery is amateurish, his exhortations are tedious and predictable.
Doesn't the offer to accept Islam, however, precede an attack of Islamic hordes? We must take it then that if we do not accept Islam, even if offered by such an unskilled orator, a Moslem onslaught is sure to follow.

But there is good news in this pitiful video for the GOP.I wonder how the generals who have called for Rumsfeld's resignation feel about being praised by an American traitor?I also can't help but wonder how the Dems who have said the same things as Adam Gadahn feel about being on the same side as this piece of AQ filth?

WHY SOME AMERICANS THINK THE WAR ON TERROR IS A BOOGEYMAN.
How easy is it to swallow a terror war when we don't understand our enemy? America is so unique because most grow up knowing true diversity. For example: What race is an American, what faith are Americans, what color are Americans? Many other countries can answer that question with one or two correct answers. When you are raised with every race, color, creed, sexual orientation and so on being equal because we all wear the name Americans, it is hard to believe that America could possibly be destroyed by Al Queda. It's hard to believe that they- Al Queda- have had anything more than dumb luck in the success of their attacks. IT IS HARD TO BELIEVE, BUT THAT DOESN'T MAKE IT UNTRUE. PLEASE WAKE UP, THOSE OF YOU SLEEPING.

Ironic that this video comes out during the same weekend that in a number of Christain churches the 7th chapter of Mark's Gospel is covering on the issue of observing cleaness on the outside when the inside is still very dirty.

The funniest thing to me was from another report I read about this tape. The CIA confirmed Zawahiri's voice as authentic but said they were unable to do the same for Gadahn because they are not allowed to perform such analysis on American citizens. If that doesn't make some people think.

This tape looks like a bad audition. Cognitive dissonance, perhaps?
The message ("your way is shit, come join us") seems to be made in such a way that no one will accept it. Playing on western guilt may work with liberals, (but seriously, are 40,000 hippies at Burning Man right now going to drop their weed and start slaying infidels? Only if they were trying to be ironic.) Even if we are to believe that the Western civilization is unacceptably violent, what kind of alterntive is "turn your sword against the enemies of islam?" The solution to violence is violence?
If this reject had any charisma at all, you might find someone who would buy into his message.
Big up to Robert on the AQ name-check. Goes to show what happens when you shine a light on the cockraches. The truth hurts. They should call you Robert "The Truth" Spencer.

Assalamau Laikium,
Bismillaah ar-Rahman ar-Raheem
I must admit to be taken by a little surprise by this lund.
He has been working hard to persuade the others to let him speak on the video. "I am a muslim 1st but still I am an American"...eh no strike that...then starts again
"I am a muslim 1st but still I am an Amerekee"...(ah that's better), these peoples can relate better to me...I may have more luck to conversions than Bin Laden (or Naseem).
You see his "metamorphsis" shows me that the (infedel-muslim) transations are assymetric and is why the West will ultimately lose.
Here is how I think the transitions now work.
muslim Wuslim (no Additional transition to infedel).
infedel--->Wuslim ---> muslim.
Can you see the assymetry...
The importance of these flow shows that a muslim will never (statistically speaking) make it to an infedel...he has Allah SWT..and that will always hold hime to Islam.
Also note (the arrows) that a wuslim can turn on a sixpence , (develop the red mist) and transition back to being a muslim.
Starting out as an infedel however you can dabble a bit with Islam and become a wuslim ...once he starts to belive in Allah more, learn the texts more and like Adam you can go all the way. Note that there are no directional arrows going back the other way.
In other words (statistically speaking) 99.99% of converts will remain wuslims or muslims, despite knowing some shortfall and the odd violent sura...there is no going back.
As you get more converts ..with the breeding cycles and all...you can see what a difference a generation makes.
There is no going back ....it is not as if you can always fight the muslim "elsewhere" like Iraq or Afganistan for ever.
Within a generation the "idelogical challenges" will be had in your countries...the Amerekie and others. If the Amerekie falls to Islam and becomes the ISA....Inshallah others will follow in a domino effect.
The flows show really that you are already losing ...my advice...teach your grand-daughters about Islam, the advantages of keeping long hair covered and especially that peace can be had within Islam as an Ahmadi.
Allah give you peoples peace and jilbabs to your grandaughters.

All the tv channels say he discovered/converted to Islam "in a mosque in Southern california".
Its always a mosque that leads them to bombs.Like marijuana is a gateway drug to meth, heroin and crack, the mosque is the gateway to bombs.
Start a movement to close down the mosques.
at September 3, 2006 10:07 AM
Naseem,
I can see you've neglected your reading of the Taurat and the Injeel. Perhaps you might prefer Ibn Warraq, Ali Sina, Ayaan Hirsi Ali, and Walid Shoebat. Very articulate kafir writers having made a complete mukaffir and now considered by all takfir from Islam.
You could have been right about the demographic takeover, but alas, the Muslims have prematurely and excessively played their hand, and now the West is waking up. Soon you will feel the leash tighten as it has in previous generations, and you will go back to doing your salat on dirt floors in destitute regions, having wasted your opportunity to join the civilized world.
Goobers like Gadahn just make it easier to smell victory from our side. Don't you have any better spokesmen? It's embarrassing, really.

from Prophet Geoff: What was with all the swallowing and lip-licking on the video?
Gadahn's lip smacking, popping, clicking, and swallowing were designed to divert attention from his effeminate, lisp.

Hi everyone.
I read this and other websites where concerned people like you and myself comment and post their thoughts and ideas.
Just like here in the USA, there are too many people in Western Euope who are AFRAID to speak up re. their misgivings about he islamic invasion. Even more so, since political correctness has reigned wild over all of Europe since at least the late 60s. It may well be Poland and Russia saving the day in the not-so-distant future.
I know I am a bit OT here.. but I have a suggestion I'd like to ask you all to consider:
I am going on the assumption that most of you anti-jihadists out there agree with me on the following premise as regards the Body Politic both here in the USA and in Europe:
1. They are either appeasement-minded liberals who consider their fellow countrymen with nothing but contempt.
2. Or, if they are "conservative" they are bought and sold by Saudi and other international interests.
Here's my remedy how to get our politicos back on track as far as doing what they are expressly elected to do: [for US politics not sure how this could be applied in Europe]
We all recall the presidential bid by one Ross Perot not too long ago. And he correctly stated how the politicians are in the back pocket of special interests. Basically they are GETTING PAID to do as their paymasters tell them to..
.. SOOooooo.. there is NO REASON that WE cannot start such a PAC. A PAC dedicated to neutralizing ther negative effect of foreign special interest monies influencing our politics here.
Are there no wealthy Americans who have an ounce of Patritism left and who might be willing to assist in setting up/funding such a venture..??!! We MUST take the fight to the nemy not just in words on a website such as this one!
We must buy media influence - as the Saudis have done. In our OWN countries, no less! We must INSIST on defunding their madrassas in OUR LANDS!
This is supposed to serve as food for thought.. I'd definitely be willing to assist in such a venture.. and fund it with what means are at my disposal. we need to stand together in DEED! Reading and posting here is only a small baby first step! The enemy is WAY and FAR ahead of us and has made great inroads into our societies. We shall stand on the sidelines no longer! I ask all of you to pull that sword [figuratively speaking] from the stonen anvil [political correctness and sellout] it is still stuck in! I wish to give each of you a Spear of Bunbing Gold! Let us not rest until we have re-built Our Shining Hill!

We need Winston Churchill - not King George W. I honestly think the traitors are in BOTH parties.. Republicans = Coke - Democrats = Pepsi. Let us not forget how many mosborgs have been at the Bush White House. Let us also not forget the Federal [taxpayer] funds that have been flowing to islamic institutions under this administration. Like Pogo said!
Thus I say:
Excalibur awaits the One. The One who can wrest the sword of Power away from the sellouts and the Quislings.. The One able to galvanize our populace via both deeds and words. The One who is still unknown. Maybe the One will be a woman?! Is anyone up to the task?

There are 300 million Americans. And given that there are probably millions who believe that Elvis lives or that they have been violated by space aliens, there is actually a large number of whackos to draw upon. I take some solace in the fact that this dude, Adam whatever, is the American representative to al Qaeda; if the best they can do is a loser like him, then they're in more trouble than I thought.

Visualize this: A DAY WITHOUT MOZBOTS. It even urks me to simply call them Muslims.
as for the Elvis thing, I think most of that is tongue in cheek and we're not a stupid as those who believe in all those missing and one day re-appearing imams or whatever it is they believe. Noone who believes Elvis to be alive has ever so much as threatened anyone's life for that particular folly.
Elvis LIVES - mohammed is stays dead. pig be upon it.

Hey, Gadahn, or should I say, Ga-"dumb", thanks for finally showing the true face of Islamic terrorism, not the benevolent or innocent "i'm-a-victim-of-Western-imperialism" crap that the leftist media would like them to be portrayed.
Not only that, Ga-"dumb", you finally gave those losers at CAIR a chance to do another 'spin' project.

Hmmm... what would have happend to Adam if he couldn't grow a beard (maybe due to genetics) after converting to Islam? Would Al Qaeda have executed him for being "un-Islamic"?

Eisenhund, thank you for the comic relief! The demonic satyr Khomeini said there was no fun or humor in islam, but Islam is a barrel of laughs. I used to think the Qur'an was all hate, death,war, intolerance, supremacy, torture, rape, slavery and world conquest, but then I found the jokes. Khomeini was a liar, among many other despicable things.

Was that a beard? I thought I was looking at his pubic hair. In this case, there's not much of a difference between one end and the other.

One would think, with all the "investigators" at the Northeast Intelligence Network, to include Douglas J. Hagmann and Michael Ruth, they would be alll over this story...lol.
In so far as Adam's remarks, well, it is my humble opinion, holy warriors are attempting to exploit the very equation which allowed Adam to develop: Weak, laissez faire, do nothing Western Prozac Parenting period. As the nuclear family disintergrates, more and more children will remain "children", and thus susceptible to influence and re-programming. They cannot be "brainwashed" because there isn't anything to "cleanse" so to speak. They are vacant and lack Socratic logic processes. Ain't the origins of the Jail Jihadi's grand?? Trotsky's "mindless automatons."

Hugh,
You beat me to what I was going to say re your comments on the appeal of islam to losers like Gadahn.
The metephor that I always think of is of more recent origin ie the "jumping down the rabbit hole" ala the first Matrix film.
I would have to say that there were a fair number of young people under 30 who got a vicarious chill from the choice offered to Neo. I would say that this was largely the appeal of the film. Jump down the rabbit hole and escape normal life to something that means more and is more exciting than could possibly be imagined.
Islam provides these people with their own personal "rabbit hole" Only their choice of their new assumed life is a testament to their utter lack of moral judgement.

Mr Slugworth,
The thought just occured to me that it could be a fake beard just so he can fit in better with his jihadi buddies.
Now his beard is pathetic in a whole new way. I think you nailed it.

What do they put in the water out there in the Golden State? So far California has given us both Jihad-Johnny and Azzam Ant, the two most famous traitors (err holy warriors) to date. What will the future bring? I have difficulty imagining that there are many out there who would look to either of these f#ckwits for directions to the nearest Dunkin Donuts, much less guidance on joining the jihad, but it is a very big country.
