Hey, wait a minute, Osama. This Darfur thing is supposed to be all about racism. Don’t disrupt the media dogmas, please.
By Mike Pflanz in the Telegraph (thanks to the Constantinopolitan Irredentist):
Osama bin Laden has issued a fresh call for a “holy war” against a new 26,000-strong peacekeeping force for Darfur, which will include British support staff.
In an audio recording issued by al-Qa’eda this week, bin Laden also said that Muslims in Sudan and its neighbours must target the Khartoum government for agreeing to the deployment.
“This is a brazen occupation, and only an infidel apostate seeks it or agrees to it,” bin Laden said.
“It is the duty of the people of Islam in the Sudan and its environs, especially the Arabian peninsula, to perform jihad against the crusader invaders and wage armed rebellion to remove those who let them in.”
He always couches his appeals in this kind of language: “the people of Islam,” etc. Yet the one thing the West is determined not to notice or to take into account is the religious nature of those appeals.
