Base of Islamism - 5: Prophecies Fulfilled

In the last several chapters of the book, Bodansky repeatedly notes that Al-Qaeda is preparing for global “spectacular attacks” to include inside the US, with specific targets of Washington DC and New York.  In one message from the enemy, it notes that airliners and their passengers are legitimate targets.  Completed in 1999, the book sounds the alarm for 9/11, though it does not note the kind of attack we witnessed.  The elements of information are there, but not put together to make the precise prediction of either time or type.

Bodansky illustrates the type of propaganda used but gives too much credence to the hierarchy of Islamism in believing their hype.

Ah, but I promised you the hypocrisy of OBL and Al-Qaeda.  I only promised one cornerstone crumbled.  I’ll give you multiple: Al-Qaeda has killed more Muslims than has any other force in the 21^st Century.  It has purposely targeted Muslim Civilians in Iraq, to include both Shi’a and Sunni, even when no foreign troops were present.

It is a cardinal sin to commit suicide, according to the Koran, yet OBL trains recruits to commit suicide.  OBL himself has a plan for his death in the case of imminent capture, but it is not by his own hand.  His loyal bodyguards are charged to kill him, as even he won’t take the chance on suicide.

 

Al-Qaeda and the myriad of terrorist organizations/names used by it fund themselves by alliance with organized crime, to include atheists, apostates, and polytheists, by means of drug trafficking and prostitution.  Al-Qaeda controlled prostitutes include Muslim women of the former Soviet Union.

On multiple occasions, Al-Qaeda has purposely murdered its own supporters or fighters in order to claim atrocities by the West.

 

While proclaiming its cause as the liberation of “holy sites” of Mecca, Medina, and Jerusalem, Al-Qaeda has taken little action against any entity involved with the control of those locations.  It ignores the plight of Palestinians and has chosen to attack the United States, primarily.  In fact Al-Qaeda declared in the late 90's that America itself was the enemy, that it would attack us, not the Israelis, not the Europeans, not the governments of the Middle East.

Al-Qaeda does engage in charity,

but jealously wards off any non-islamist organization attempting to assist Muslims.  It prefers that Muslims starve than be given food by US or other Western forces.  It uses food as a weapon. 

Somalia provides example of this, as does Afghanistan.  In Somalia, 1993, the primary effort of US and UN forces was to protect Humanitarian Aid.  Islamist terrorists, to include bin Laden and Sudanese forces were used to further de-stabilize Somalia and were instrumental in Aidid’s forces, to include the Battle of Mogadishu made famous by the movie “Black Hawk Down.”

 

In Kosovo, Al-Qaeda and its myriad of subordinate organizations propagandized the US Air Campaign as attacks on Muslims (as opposed to the truth of a war against Serb aggression) until its realization that islamist forces were powerless to do anything against the Serb aggression.  At that point, Islamism declared a truce in effect for NATO and US Forces in that particular location, even while Al-Qaeda with Iraqi support was actively recruiting Muslims in Australia to fight in Kosovo.

 

Meanwhile, there has been little note of Hezbollah, outside of attacks on Israel and Lebanon.  Short of a specialized Iraq based Hezbollah unit, it has been relatively low-key.  One might conclude that due to the high visibility of Iranian ties, the Hezbollah name is not used in claims to prevent reason for attack against the center of terrorism itself: Iran.  Even in Israel, Hezbollah and Hamas avoid attacks on Americans.

 

Still, Hezbollah is very active on the criminal finance side of the house and has a worldwide presence including multiple cells inside the US and strongholds in the Caribbean and in South America.

The 9/11 attacks were conducted by primarily Saudis, specially selected by OBL himself, for a reason: he wished to accomplish the ire of the American People against the Saudi government.  The second wave were selected from Western European islamists, as he had anticipated that they would not yet have gained attention.  The third wave were supposed to be American Islamists.  And in 2009, we saw Major Hasan and before that a young muslim convert attack US Soldiers inside our own borders.

 

It is difficult to ascertain the total numbers of enemy terrorists we face, but it is important that both Americans and Muslims understand that that enemy is not Islam.  The enemy we face is profoundly anti-Islamic.  Osama is a false prophet and heretic to Islam who murders Muslims in order to further his own desire for fame, glory, and power.

And it is important for Americans to understand that the majority of islamist terrorist organizations are now and have been for over a decade, little more than part of a umbrella organization, united with a cause of imperial goals.  Hezbollah, Hamas, and Al-Qaeda are more akin to various parts of the same Iranian organization than to independent groups that just happen to aspire to the same inglorious end.
