Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

Al Qaeda calling for jihad car bomb attacks on American soil

May 9, 2014 5:38 pm By Robert Spencer

CarBombAttacks“Many Fiesal Shahzads are residing inside America and all they need is the knowledge of how to make car bombs… and the good news is it can be prepared in a home kitchen.” And with the FBI and other law enforcement agencies bound as a matter of policy not to examine the beliefs, motives, and goals of the jihad terrorists, it will be well-nigh impossible for them to stop attacks like these. Even if agents get the necessary information to stop them in time, they may not know how to understand or evaluate it properly.

“Al Qaeda calling for car bomb attacks on American soil,” by John Soderman, KUSI News, May 8, 2014 (thanks to Pamela Geller):

The report begins in the streets of Baghdad. As two army soldiers drive through Baghdad in a convoy headed for the green zone, a car bomb explosion is caught on tape. Fearing another car bomb could go off soon, which so often happens, the soldiers make a run for the safety of the green zone – when they’re out of harm’s way, they say:

“Well, that’s better than a cup of coffee in the morning…”

It is a truly chilling event in an urban setting where there are so many people. But if Al Qaeda has its way, the same scenario will play out in American urban areas. In a recent issue of Inspire Magazine, regarded as the Vanity Fair of Al Qaeda, Al Qaeda calls for Jihad car bomb attacks on certain American cities – including Los Angeles, Chicago, Washington D.C., New York and northern Virginia where the CIA is headquartered. Ron Bee is a former State Department and Pentagon employee and was asked what would happen if a car bomb were to go off at a major American shopping mall, and what would be the impact on the American economy?

“People would stay home, they wouldn’t go to the malls. They’d go home to wait to hear that (all was OK)… we all know what happened after 9/11: everybody stayed home. They didn’t go shopping. They didn’t fly. The airlines went under, so it could have a major impact.”

The article makes reference to Fiesal Shahzads, the Times Square bomber whose bomb was discovered and subsequently diffused. Al Qaeda says:

“Many Fiesal Shahzads are residing inside America and all they need is the knowledge of how to make car bombs… and the good news is it can be prepared in a home kitchen.”

“That’s true. A lot of things are on the internet and the folks in Boston learn how to make their bombs off the internet and in magazines like Inspire, which is the same magazine that’s advertising home-grown terrorism here in the United States. So, it’s possibly to do, but at the same time, we have a very diligent Home Land Security squad FBI that’s keeping track.”

Al Qaeda makes requests: “the important thing is that you target people and not buildings.”

“That’s what terrorists do: terrorists have a political cause and they kill innocent people. That’s Al Qaeda. So of course that’s what they’re going to say, and it also gets our attention when it’s a bombing that kills innocent people because they usually have nothing to do with any political cause.”

Al Qaeda continues: “the American government was unable to protect it’s citizens from pressure cooker bombs in backpacks. I wonder if they are able to stop car bombs.”

“We’ve always worried about this sort of attack, ever since coming to the United States, and now Al Qaeda is saying that home-grown terrorists should conduct those sorts of attacks. This is, I think, the response in the up-tick in attacks against Al Qaeda in places like Yemen, with drones in a variety of places around the world including Africa. We’re soon going to see some activity in Nigeria; the idea here is they’re trying to hit back at us in retaliation.”

But there are some who say Al Qaeda’s call for car bomb attacks in American cities is a sign of desperation – that the terrorist organization is on the ropes.

“You can read this a couple of ways,” said John Miller of NYPD Intelligence. “One way you can read Inspire Magazine is it is some kind of sign of failure, Al Qaeda central has diminished to the point that it has to put out this wide net and say ‘can anybody do anything? Because as an organization, we’re not effective that way.'”…

Miller sounds like Baghdad Bob.

    Foiled Muslim attack plans just ain’t doing it.

    Nothing teaches people about Islam like watching others being killed for the sake, for the honor, of Islam.

    So in a perverse sort of a way, I too wish more Muslims would do bombings here in the USA. You woulda thought that 911 with 3,000 killed, with Madrid in 2004, with London in 2005, with the 000s of attacks by Muslims on other Muslims and non-Muslims alike over the 12.5 years since 911, that all of that woulda taught more people about Islam.

    You woulda thought, but you woulda been wrong. Democrats (the enemy within) and the MSM (another enemy within) are doing everything possible to keep Americans in the dark about the evil of Islam the worldwide jihad to advance Islam.

    Nothing grabs one’s attention like being hit on the side of the head with a 2 by 4. And from all appearance it will take more Muslim attacks against infidels with the loss of Western lives before more necessary lessons about Islamic ideology are learned.

      “So in a perverse sort of a way, I too wish more Muslims would do bombings here in the USA. ”

      CAIR (Carefully Advancing an Islamic Republic) would go frantic, talking about how only “islamophobes” would ascribe such acts to islam and asking police protection to prevent unjust retaliatory acts (who never seem to happen) against innocent muslims.

      One of my children works in a mall. Even if a dozen malls were bombed, nothing would change. We’ve had thousands of lives taken by Islamic violence on U.S. soil, and the sentiment in universities, government/military, and the Democrat media complex remains, “Give us more Muslim tolerance.” There are people I’d like to see die at the hands of these Mohammedan bastards, but they won’t get the wholesale annihilation required to right the Titanic.

    The jihad will continue for as long as the Muslims continue to believe in and obey the Qur’an and the saying and doing of Muhammad found in the Sunnah.

    The Psychosis of Islam will continue to inspire Muslim terrorism until the Muslims themselves admit that Islam is a hoax and abandon it in disgust.

    We ex-Muslims know that Islam is the most dangerous and harmful theology ever devised by man.

      “The Psychosis of Islam will continue to inspire Muslim terrorism until the Muslims themselves admit that Islam is a hoax and abandon it in disgust.”

      You’re right, Saleem. Unveiling Muhammad to the Muslims is our best chance to win them over. They are our best allies in this war. Most of them know almost nothing about their prophet, his life and his teachings. Those who know, are afraid to speak up. Those who do, are immediately silenced.

    They will be (are) executing hits by other methods as well.

    We know, they cling hard-fast to the Sunnah of their prophet, and it was his Sunnah, more often than not, to “signal” he would strike from or in one direction or place, and did so just to divert attention away from site (or method) intended.

    As these lines from Islamic history attest: “To insure secrecy of the movements, the Prophet always used apparently misleading movements, such as marching for some days in a wrong direction and then converging towards the object.”

    (Battlefields of the Prophet Muhammad, Dr. Muhammad Hamidullah, Kitab
    Bhavan, New Delhi, Revised, 1992, Publishers, LTD, 2009, P. 131.)

    If we know anything about the Muslims, we know, they follow the practices of their prophet. Cling, as stated, as they are commanded to, hard to them.

    Thus, they may also, or exclusively, execute hand’s on attacks, as well as hits, of any kind, from places we least expect them; leave no calling card, beyond the noted agreement the hit has with the instructions in the book (Kitab Allah).

      Plagiarism! Sun Tzu wrote that about FIVE HUNDRED BC, or if politically correct BCE. So 1,100 years before the birth of the narcissistic psychopath.

      For all their Satanic cleverness, they have made some egregious errors: Munich, 9/11, Beslan, Morsi, Boko Haram, even Bamiyan … which make it more and more difficult to hide their true plans for world domination.

      Just like we have to be lucky every time to foil their Diabolical plots, so too they have to be lucky that they don’t go too far one day, and make it impossible for the MSM, academia, and obuMBoy/CaMoron to cover for them.

        Huck,

        Are you charging me with plagiarism?

        I cited words as they are written in the source I cited as the source of the quote cited.

        Comments I made on my own, as such, indicated as just that, were just that: my comments.

        I made those comments based on my study of the “The Book of Allah” and those that follow it, in brief.

    The basis for terrorism comes from the communists who justified terrorism based on the “Social Contract” the social contract advances the idea that the government has the consent of the governerned. If “We the people” did not consent to be governed by the government then we would rise up and overthrow such a government. Since we have consented to be governed by a corrupt governent there is therefore no such a thing as innocent citizens. This reasoning therefore justifies targeting any citizen of the country.

      dufus, nobody consented to be governed by a corrupt
      government. your reasoning is corrupt.

      “Smart guy,” the basis for Islamic terrorism comes right out of the Book of Allah and the sunnah of his messenger.

      Detail by detail, the Qur’an is loaded with examples showing, past generations that were destroyed for rejecting Allah’s messengers sent to them. Nations (as in men, woman, and children) that suffered their loses by destruction that came to them, in short, when, where, and how they least expected it.

      Thus, repeatedly, the Qur’anic text asserts, these examples are messages for those who will take note. The tafsirs, as do the sira’s, and hadith, as well as other books from, as they say in Islam, those with knowledge, pitch in and all together make for a full undeniable picture showing, terror is simply a tenet of the Islamic “faith.”

    “You can read this a couple of ways,” said John Miller of NYPD Intelligence.”

    Anything coming from the mouths of the well neutered NYPD, especially their “intelligence” division, had better be taken with zero credibility.

    When the bombs go off, not if, I can see many more Americans waking up to the horrors of the true religion of peace. But I also see more freedoms lost to the need for more “safety”, and more accommodations for the evil muslims so as not to offend!

    The insanity of political correctness will kill this country.

    Why should I worry about al-Qaeda’s latest threat. America hasn’t suffered a Jihadist attack since 9/11, and I heard that on Fox News. Our 13 years of no Jihad on the Homeland has been a great time of peace, and is probably the fruits of the fine efforts turned in by the DHS, the FBI, the CIA, and the NSA.

    So long as the dots are withheld by the administration the police will not have them to connect – Fort Hood, Boston, and more to come.

    Surprises me this has not already have happened in north America, either the intelligence agencies and police are very good and stopped these, or just plain luck. I lived through American/Western sponsored terrorists, oops sorry!freedom fighters, and they bombed all over the place.

    If and when these Sorry Good For Nothing Cave men start their Jihad with Car Bombs here in the US; That is when we(Americans) start Hunting with our Guns… Bounty or No Bounty; we will shoot every Muslim that we see… There are No Moderate Muslim’s; they all read the same Book, Follow the Same False Prophet and worship the same Moon god… So, watch how the Patriots’ of America tally up Cave Men.

    Many non-Muslims and even many Muslims, think of Islam in the traditional religious sense of sacredness, intentions, spirituality, peacefulness, goodness, giving, loving, etc. In truth, Islam is not such a traditional religion. Islam is a ‘stand alone’ {only one of its kind} because killing unbelieving men, women and children, are not only permitted in Islam, but is actually demanded by Allah {Muslim God}. In Islam, Allah is not love, {he could be merciful, at best. A Christian would say ‘who needs mercy without God’s love?’} In Islam, total obedience to Allah is demanded, irrespective of rationality. Followers must unquestionably, even be prepared to kill a human, to protect this Allah because a ‘human life is meaningless’ {Ishaq: 676 – After killing the mother of five little sons, Muhammad said, “as meaningless as two goats butting their heads”} Instead humans are precious in Christianity and God calls us to value and respect human life, as God loves every human being, irrespective of race, creed, colour, nationality, etc.
