Doc Knothead: Wage Holy War Against Pakistan

2007-07-11

Cue Rage Boy. It's time to hit the streets...
CAIRO, Egypt (AP) - Al-Qaida's deputy leader issued a video Wednesday calling for Pakistanis to wage a holy war against their government in retaliation for the attack by Pakistan's army on the Red Mosque in Islamabad.

Ayman al-Zawahri's 4-minute, 24-second address focused entirely on the clashes between Islamic students and Pakistan's army at the mosque.

The video was released by al-Qaida's multimedia branch, as-Sahab. Its authenticity could not immediately be confirmed, but two U.S.-based terrorism monitoring groups also reported it.
So whaddya think Perv? Time to give him up?

#8 No, this war started during Thomas Jeffersons time. This is why you have a Navy and this is why you have those Godly Marines. HOOAH!

#7 With any luck, his next video will end with a Marine sniper smoke checking his turban.

#6 If everyone is upset at Chertoff for "continuing to scare the bejeebers out of us" with his "gut feelings". Then what to make of the guy in the other corner. I think he is on the payroll of the NYTs/WaPo/LAT/CBS/NPR/NBC/ABC conglomerate. They provide the equipment and he makes the press swoon with delight that everytime he makes a tape, Chertoff and Bush and Cheney wind up the nation and the press can then accuse them of "scaring us and creating the situation in Iraq that is stirring up AQ". Everyone forgets this war actually started a long time ago, like so 1970'sish.

#5 With all of his pen pals getting knocked off, Doc Z has decided to start his own blog. Next, he'll be getting a Paypal account while sending Glenn Reynolds fawning "please blog roll me, infidel!" emails.

#4 It was the second message by al-Zawahri this week, and his 10th this year, said Ben Venzke of the IntelCenter, a U.S.-based intelligence group that monitors terrorism messages.

Venzke said al-Qaida's media wing, as-Sahab, was now releasing more than two messages a week on average. "They just keep getting faster," he said on the telephone.

"Al-Qaida has apparently made the decision that it's important for them to respond to current events within a short news cycle," he said. Venzke pointed out that al-Zawahri was reacting to events at the Red Mosque in Pakistan that were barely a week old.

As-Sahab issued a total of 58 messages for all of 2006. But Wednesday's release was its 62nd so far for 2007, IntelCenter said.

#1 He's done a few of these in a couple of weeks. Is he risking anything by doing so many so quick?
And is this a sign that we are getting to him, and he has to get more backing?
