This is why we’re fighting

From Fox News:

An American member of Al Qaeda warned President Bush on Tuesday to end U.S. involvement in all Muslim lands or face an attack worse than the Sept. 11 attacks, according to a new videotape.

“Your failure to heed our demands … means that you and your people will … experience things which will make you forget all about the horrors of September 11th, Afghanistan and Iraq and Virginia Tech,” he said in the seven-minute video.

Gadahn, who appeared in an Al Qaeda video last September in which he called on Americans to convert to Islam, demanded that Bush remove all U.S. military and spies from Islamic countries, free all Muslims from U.S. prisons and end support for Israel. He said a withdrawal of U.S. troops from Iraq alone would not satisfy Al Qaeda.

Ben Venzke at IntelCenter, a U.S. government contractor that monitors Al Qaeda messages, said the group likely did not believe any of its demands would be met.

“It essentially allows Al Qaeda to say that it has provided fair warning and is thus no longer responsible for the outcome,” Venzke said in a statement.

But… but… but Islam is a religion of peace! And… and… its really the United States who are the terrorists! And Al Qaeda was never in Iraq to begin with! It’s our own fault anyways, for murdering 650,000 “innocent civilians”, eh, Rosie?

Every now and then something like this pops up. Let it be a reminder to all: this is why we’re fighting. Al-Qaeda will never rest, and neither can we.
