| Saudi dissident threatens US, Saudi governments |
| 2003-06-12 |
| A fugitive Saudi dissident on Wednesday threatened the Saudi Arabian, and US governments that he would resort to terrorist attacks against them. According to Al Bawaba Internet website's Wednesday news, Abdullah Sultan al-Qahtani, in a communique issued on Wednesday morning seriously threatened the Saudi Arabian rulers, and the US political and military officials. "We have prepared ourselves to break your backs, and pull your nails, and your teeth, so that after kicking you (the Americans and the Saudi Dynasty) from the Arabian Peninsula wretchedly, we would lead a prosperous life in our motherland, according to the rules of Islam," reads the communique. Bitchy, ain't he? Accusing the Saudi intelligence officials of arresting the prominent religious authorities and pious "Mujahid" women, the fugitive Saudi dissident has asked for the immediate release of all religious personalities and pious Muslim citizens, particularly those recently arrested in Holy Medina. How about, no? Abdullah Sultan al-Qahtani has meanwhile warned Saudi officials in his communique that "If the innocent prisoners are not freed immediately, I and my combatant brethren, who have survived the deadly US bombardments in Turabura [Tora Bora] Heights of Afghanistan, will personally act forcefully to free them." Was every islamic nutcase in Afghanistan, or do they just want their followers to think so? He has further emphasized, "My brethren and I were not intended to get engaged in aggressive combats with any regime, but the United States, but those who have been the accomplices of the Washington administration in its criminal deeds, too, should be held accountable for the aftermaths of their policies." Abdullah Sultan al-Qahtani is in the 19-man list, whose names and photographs were distributed publicly as "most wanted terrorists" responsible for recent attacks in Riyadh. And trying for number one on the Saudi's hit parade. |

| #9 If you start it you have to finish. Can't leave any strays, and you must keep up your momentum. |

| #8 The IRA has a couple of those .50s if I recall correctly. The assasination policy should be given a re-evaluation I think. But it won't happen because then every US lawmaker will have to travel by M1A1 to their place of work. Unless of course Hamas succeeds in "murdering" Sharon, then the precedent will be set and all gloves are off. |

| #7 TU3031...Yeah, take a few of them out with the Barrett .50 XM-107. Performance as noted today at Kim's site: "My spotter positively identified a target at 1,400 meters carrying an RPG on a water tower. I engaged the target. The top half of the torso fell forward out of the tower and the lower portion remained in the tower." -- 325th PIR Sniper |

| #6 In Vietnam we had a program called Phoenix which specialized in taking out VC leadership via assasination. It was quite effective until the press got hold of it and then, of course, the powers that be dropped it. Too icky for the idealists. Could it be time to dust off the paperwork and start hunting for Mullahs? Maybe this time we can call it New York. |

| #5 "We have prepared ourselves to break your backs, and pull your nails, and your teeth, so that after kicking you (the Americans and the Saudi Dynasty) from the Arabian Peninsula wretchedly, we would lead a prosperous life in our motherland, according to the rules of Islam," Steve Den Beste had a post a while back with a chronological listing of belligerent quotes from Islamists who were going to kick our ass. First the Taliban, then Sadaam and his 'elite" forces, then there was one that some Iranian mullahs made recently. Similar pathology here. Rant, seethe, threaten and then get ground to dust by a nation that knows how to fight. |

| #4 Tell Abdullah to take a number and stand in the line over there, right at the spot with the taped 'X' on the floor. Something will be with him shortly. |

| #2 The old principle applies here: Speak softly and carry a big stick. Evidently, Abdullah Sultan al-Qahtani did not get the Iraq message. So he needs a personal message for him and his followers. You do not have to make any threats or statements. Just quietly do it, and then say, "Next?" |

| #1 Unfortunately, there are far too many nutcases in the Middle East that think exactly like this. They need to be rooted out and given a bath - preferably one in the deepest part of the Indian Ocean, with a hundred pounds of cement firmly anchored to their knees. Whenever any religion espouses the use of force for conversion, and where the adherents follow such advice blindly, there are only two options: join, or kill them all. I will NOT become a Muslim. |
