Bleed for Years

Some of the reason that riots and terrorism break out in the Middle East at the drop of a turban is because Muslims in the Middle East have this unmistakable tendency to do what they're told. A cleric issues a fatwa.......and people line up to do just exactly what that cleric tells them to do.

So it is with real interesting that we learn of a recently released message from Osama Bin Laden's chief deputy, Ayman al-Zawahiri. On this audiotape, Zawahiri makes the following requests and observations:


He urges Muslims to attack the economic infrastructure of the West


He urges Muslims to stop Western countries from "stealing oil from Middle Eastern countries. (Hmm..we've been paying for oil for so long...perhaps we should start stealing it.)


He calls on his followers to launch attacks on the Western countries and make them "bleed for years.

Take notice of the coverage of this story. Here you have a prominent Islamic terrorist calling on his fellow Muslims to do unspeakable things. All of his rantings are made in the name of Islam, with the implied approval of Allah. Where are the peaceful Muslims responding to this? Have you heard one single statement from one leader of one American Mosque or Islamic interest group condemn or even mildly criticize al-Zawahiri's remarks? If it's such a peaceful, harmless religion, then how come nobody ever publicly denounces these statements?

All we hear is SILENCE.................................................

(CNN) -- A taped message attributed to Osama bin Laden's deputy calls on Muslims to attack the "economic infrastructure" of the West and stop Western countries from "stealing" Mideast oil, according to recordings posted on Islamist Web sites Sunday.

The statement calls on al Qaeda's followers to launch attacks that will make Western powers "bleed for years."

"We have to prevent the crusaders from stealing the Muslims' oil, which is being drained in the biggest robbery in history," the statement, attributed to No. 2 al Qaeda figure Ayman al-Zawahiri, said.

The statement came out a week after Saudi authorities thwarted a suicide car-bomb attack on the Abqaiq oil-processing facility in eastern Saudi Arabia.

The February 24 incident did not affect the facility's operations, Oil Minister Ali bin Ibrahim al-Naimi said, and five suspected Islamic militants that Saudi authorities linked to the attack died in a gunbattle near Riyadh three days later. (Full story)

The audio appears to have been taken from a recent videotaped message, portions of which were broadcast Saturday on the Arabic-language news network Al-Jazeera.

In those excerpts, al-Zawahiri complimented the Islamic militant group Hamas on its Palestinian election victory, spoke against the cartoons depicting the Prophet Mohammed and condemned the latest images of prisoners being mistreated by U.S. troops at Iraq's Abu Ghraib prison. (Full story)

In the video, al-Zawahiri appeared standing in front of a panel of white lace curtains and wearing a black turban. Although he referred to recent events, it is unknown when the tape was made.

"All this in the West is allowed so they can steal and occupy our land, and stealing our wealth and insulting us and our religion and Quran and our prophet. And after that, they gave us lessons on freedom and human rights," he said.

Al-Zawahiri was last heard from publicly January 30, when he appeared in a video to announce he was alive and well after a U.S. missile strike targeted him January 13 in Pakistan. (Full story)

U.S. officials have said that between four and eight al Qaeda members were killed in the CIA attack in Damadola, near the Afghanistan border.

Pakistani officials said 18 people were killed in the airstrike, including five women and five children, which prompted protests across the country. (Full story)

There was no independent confirmation that the voice on the tape was that of al-Zawahiri, an Egypt-born physician who has remained at large since the September 11, 2001, attacks on New York and Washington. The U.S. government has put a $25 million price on his head.

Yet when Pat Robertson spoke about Killing a foreign head of state the many Christians were outraged.......

Religious broadcaster Pat Robertson suggested on-air that American operatives assassinate Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez to stop his country from becoming "a launching pad for communist infiltration and Muslim extremism."

"Those comments are wholly inappropriate and offensive and really don't have a place in this or any other debate," presidential spokesman Trent Duffy said as President Bush traveled to Chicago for a speech.

Religious leaders denounced Robertson's remarks as "un-Christian."

called Robertson's remarks "un-Christian and a perversion of religion" and urged Christian leaders to "distance themselves" from the broadcaster.

while the liberal media condemns Robertson for insesitive remarks, Islam (and our liberal media) is silent to calls to Kill "westerners".....
