“The Islamist extremist some are now calling the most dangerous man in the world had a few parting words to his captors as he was released from the biggest U.S. detention camp in Iraq in 2009. ‘He said, “I’ll see you guys in New York.”‘ And who knows? The way things are going, maybe he will.
“ISIS Leader: ‘See You in New York,’” by Michael Daly, The Daily Beast, June 14, 2014:
When Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi walked away from a U.S. detention camp in 2009, the future leader of ISIS issued some chilling final words to reservists from Long Island.
The Islamist extremist some are now calling the most dangerous man in the world had a few parting words to his captors as he was released from the biggest U.S. detention camp in Iraq in 2009.
“He said, ‘I’ll see you guys in New York,’” recalls Army Col. Kenneth King, then the commanding officer of Camp Bucca.
King didn’t take these words from Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi as a threat. Al-Baghdadi knew that many of his captors were from New York, reservists with the 306 Military Police Battalion, a unit based on Long Island that includes numerous numerous members of the NYPD and the FDNY. The camp itself was named after FDNY Fire Marshal Ronald Bucca, who was killed at the World Trade Center in the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks.
King figured that al-Baghdadi was just saying that he had known all along that it was all essentially a joke, that he had only to wait and he would be freed to go back to what he had been doing.
“Like, ‘This is no big thing, I’ll see you on the block,’” King says.
King had not imagined that in less that five years he would be seeing news reports that al-Baghdadi was the leader of ISIS, the ultra-extremist army that was sweeping through Iraq toward Baghdad.
“I’m not surprised that it was someone who spent time in Bucca but I’m a little surprised it was him,” King says. “He was a bad dude, but he wasn’t the worst of the worst.”
King allows that along with being surprised he was frustrated on a very personal level.
“We spent how many missions and how many soldiers were put at risk when we caught this guy and we just released him,” King says….

” see you in New York”
must of been a slip of the tongue. He probably meant to say ” New Mecca “

Discarding the obvious propaganda lies in this article I would say that this man may well be what the world needs to restore the dignity of the Muslim lands and en passant initiate the process of the liberation of the White lands from the Yehuds and their third world imports including the Muslims. The Jewish war on the natural diversity of nations, religions, tribes and races must be halted and those who are carrying out such genocides in the name of ‘tolerance’ must be brought to account and punished.
Jacksonl03 says
Uh, care to specify just what “propaganda” you are referring to? I’m guessing not.
As to restoring Muslim dignity: An unchangeable seventh century system of religious instruction, law and tradition that promotes the subjugation and/or murder of billions simply because they won’t bow to Islam, treats women as chattel, embraces female genital mutilation and the forced marriage and rape of underaged girls as holy, mandates beheadings and amputation of arms and legs for the least of crimes and . . . (I could go on, and on, and on) . . . has no dignity.
Tough to “restore” a negative. However, I’m guessing your right about one thing: If anyone wants to do it it’ll be a Muslim.
eib says
There is no dignity for the devil, for the profane.
Islam is profane.
There is no salvation in the Ummah.
endzog, do the right thing.
Submit. Submit. You have no place in the West.

I can’t tell if you are a traitorous left winger or an Islamic jihadist. ISIS is an enemy to all non-Muslims and I hope that they are exterminated like the vermin that they are. Islam is a Religion of War created by the Warlord Muhammad. Read The Truth about Muhammad by Robert Spencer.

I don’t know if you’re referring to Michael Daly or Robert Spencer, but it hardly matters—neither one of them is going to join you in your sick little antisemitic fantasy.
And accusing Jews of carrying out “genocide”—when it is they themselves who are threatened by genocidal Mohammedans—is the most grotesque projection.
You’ll have to take your warped Jew-hatred elsewhere—you won’t find many here who’ll listen to your crap.

Considering who is mayor of New York and who is president I am sure al-baghdadi will be an honored quest.
Shane says
Perhaps Obama will ask him to give advice to the people who write our counter-terrorism materials for Homeland Security. I’m sure that he will say that there is no such thing as Islamic jihad and that it is an insult to Islam to use the phrase “Islamic terrorist.” Of course, Obama has already seen to it.
Kepha says
May God have mercy on Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi and turn him to believe in the Jesus Christ of the Old and New Testament, to the praise of God’s glorious grace.
Otherwise, may Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi choke on pork fat.

Kepha,
You really are one who knows how to count to ten. You put me to shame. Blessings to you and yours.

The Jewish war on the natural diversity of nations?…
The incomparable Wellington always says it’s a bad idea to react to trolls, but the Nazi drivel you’ve dripped here shouldn’t be ignored. You write like a proud goose-stepping Schwarzkrusehosenverructerkommando* with a paid membership in the Hitler &Himmler Memorial Society. JW isn’t the place for your racist crap.
Having a good time with Mein Kampf are you? It appears that cracking the Fuhrer’s book is your life’s Everest. What an achievement. Yes, Mein Kampf is like your mini madrassa.
But why not have some balls and live it all the way up? Don’t settle for some half measure, go ahead and say the Shahada. And as long as you’re being an ass, you might as well point your ass in the air and pound your head on the ground five times each day with that great clot of anti-Semites, the ummah. Why, in no time at all you’ll have a nice fat zabiba to show for your efforts. And don’t forget that the zabiba is more eco-friendly than a death’s head pin (that Third Reich Totenkopf thing). It’s a muslima magnet too.
You could simply rely on the flimsy words of the Adolf to nurture your feeble moral understanding. But wouldn’t it be better to have the divine, unalterable sanction of Islam’s Allah? That way, you could have an unshakable certainty for your Jew hatred; and there would be no need for a questionable race theory.
Oh yes, as to your idiocy on the racial question, there is the remote possibility that a good rigorous course in logic and one in genetics might help you to think more clearly. But then again, maybe your mental difficulties are inherited, or perhaps they’re merely congenital but you’re beyond remediation.
It is clear in any case that you’re a pretentious doofus.
P S. “Endzog”” is a screen name a reprobate would choose. We get it you know.
*Yes I made that up, but you deserve it black shorts boy.

“We spent how many missions and how many soldiers were put at risk when we caught this guy and we just released him,” King says….
Whoever gave orders to release this vermin must face trial and, if convicted of high treason, EXECUTED.
devonoagon says
The commander of the unit that guarded camp Bucca was on the Kelly File Friday night and he said that when the U.S. was pulling out of Iraq, the prisoners there were transferred over to Iraqi custody and it was an Iraqi court that freed this guy. The Iraqi’s are now paying for the folly of releasing him (though the idea of impeaching Obummer for pulling out of Iraq early with no status of forces agreement would be a nice idea, as well as a number of other offenses…but I can only dream).

Of course not! He just meant, ‘next time, I’ll come visit you guys!’. Good grief…
