Al Qaeda Issues Chilling New Threat on Jihadi Web Site: Pledges ‘Earth-Shattering’ Attacks on U.S., Western Targets

Jan. 31, 2013 10:21am Billy Hallowell

For anyone who thinks that al Qaeda operatives have simmered in their penchant for waging attacks on Western targets, consider the terror group’s newest threat — a chilling pledge posted on the jihadi Ansar al Mujahidin web site. In it, the group promises to implement “shocking” attacks on the U.S. and other democratic targets. The message also details a “map” of al Qaeda’s “future strikes,” which the unidentified writer claims will carry the weight of “God’s might.”

A message, originally written in Arabic, asks, “Where will the next strike by Qaeda be?” The terror group then proceeds to answer, pledging to make their future actions against Western targets, “strong, serious, alarming, earth-shattering, shocking and terrifying.” In addition to the U.S., France and Denmark are explicitly mentioned as intended marks.

Al Qaeda Issues Chilling Threats on Ansar al Mujahidin Web Site

French troops patrol on January 30, 2013 along the Niger river in the northern city of Gao, a key Islamist stronghold until it was retaken on January 26 by French and Malian troops in a major boost to the French-led offensive against the Al Qaeda-linked rebels, who have been holding Mali’s vast desert north since last April.

“The coming strikes by al Qaeda, with God’s might, will be in the heart of the land of non-belief, America, and in France, Denmark, other countries in Europe, in the countries that helped and are helping France, and in other places that shall be named by al Qaeda at other times,” reads the cryptic threat.

According to the Washington Times, the reference to France appears to be a retaliatory effort aimed at responding to the nation’s military strikes in Mali. As TheBlaze has reported, the European nation has 2,400 forces in the North African nation and is taking steps to combat al Qaeda operatives there.

Aside from giving this account of the general areas the al Qaeda will target, the unidentified writer also outlines the mechanisms that will purportedly be used. In addition to lone-wolf attacks, “booby-trapped vehicles” are written up as the group’s weapons of choice. According to the Times, U.S. officials are taking the Internet threat seriously.

“Extremists regularly make threats online,” one official told the outlet. “This one is not particularly unusual, but of course should be taken seriously.”

The threat comes as debate surrounds former Sen. Chuck Hagel and his potential confirmation as the Obama administration’s new Secretary of Defense.

Stop with the ‘humane’ approach to warfare and go back to th WWII method. Kill as many of the enemy as possible, as fast as possible, no innocent civilians are in any war zone, finish it rapidly, then go home. These are not civilized bipeds, they are two legged, peanut brained fanatics and should be disposed of like the jackels that they are.

EXTREMELEFT–we haven’t taken anything from the Muslims! Rather, we have made them a very wealthy collection of nations. We didn’t steal anything! We discovered and developed it, using our ingenuity and their labor for which we paid handsomely! We have educated them in our colleges and universities and we have opened our borders to their travel and migration! You are so naive in your view of the World that it is dangerous!

I say – Meadow muffins!

I don’t believe it, because Obammy said Al-Qaeda is on the run, the leadership has been all but destroyed, we’re pulling our boys out of the Middle East next year (about time – imho*), and Gaybama has more important enemies to destroy – the American Patriot, the American Gun Owner, the American Worker, the American Culture, the American Economy, American Credibility with international friends and partners, the NRA, the Tea Party, and what is left of the Republican Party.

Just ignore the next big thing to hit us, and chalk it up to right-wing extremists, like the destruction of World Trade Center.

* – Bring home our troops, abolish ‘all-volunteer’ service, and bring back the draft or mandatory service. It’s about time we stop spilling the blood of patriots on foreign soil, while their Left-wing detractors rest comfortably on their arse at home, destroying what the enemy, to date, has not been able to. Let THEM (the Lefties) do THEIR fair share in defending the homeland!

Lately there has been quite an investment in mosques in America. Not that it has anything to do with gettng whacked by Islamist’s. It’s just that any whacking attributed to Muslim fanatics would be unfavorable to attending Friday prayers at the mosque.

  I don’t understand where there is still a Mosque standing anywhere in the World since 911.
  It’s like leaving all the Cities in Japan unmolested after Pearl Harbor.

Maybe I’m not ignorant about such things, but don’t we have the capability to shut these terrorists websites, twitter accounts, etc.. down? Don’t we have tech geeks that can go in and eliminate their ability to do anything on line?

  Yes we do, and the sooner we embrace them as part of the battle against liberty, the better….Annonymous believes that the internet should be free to transfer info, blah, blah, blah. However, typically we see fit to extracate them from our conservative beliefs even though they are basically the same beliefs…..You get the idea. It’s time to get inclusive rather than devisive and kick some DC behinds Politically!!

  You could shut it down, yes, but I think they leave these doors open for tracking purposes. If you close one door, they’ll just find a trapdoor to another (even though they probably already have others).

obama had better pray to his devil that America never gets hit by Al qaeda. America will go mental on all democrats and democrat media. obama and dems are not protecting Americans. They don’t care about the lives of Americans or our Allies.If America gets hit again, Democrats will be removed by force. Enough is Enough.

  The problem is, you wouldn’t be removing Democrats. You would be removing Fascist and Marxist liberals. Republicans today act more like Democrats of past times. Unfortunately, liberals and conservatives aren’t the same today as they were under past democratic presidents.

Let’s not confuse God with “Allah.” Not the same thing by a long shot. Allah is not Yahweh. Allah had no son and Christ didn’t die for the sins of the world according to the Quran. Go ahead and bring your “Allah’s might” because it doesn’t mean squat to the one true God.

That’s what you get from trying to win hearts & minds instead of obliterating your enemies. Remember WW II, Patton & Monty did not pussyfoot the enemy but killed as many as possible. Once al Queda is bombed straight to hell instead of only from time to time taking out a few “leaders” they’ll whistle an other tune.

Let’s see. The Gaul’s tweaked the noses of the Romans, wiped out a couple of legions, p.o.’d Caesar and his generals. The result was the excuse Caesar needed to move in and annihilate the Gaul’s leaving them pleading for mercy, as well as booting an aggressive German tribe back across the Rhine wiping out many of them in the process. There was peace and stability in the Roman Empire from this area for the next 200 years. Moral to the story? Don’t mess with Rome.

Who knows what OTM’s (other than Mexican) have brought into the US over our unsecured
southern border. This should have been dealt with years ago, but some made it a human rights issue, should have been a secure America, and Americans issue.

The Southern states have screamed about the open southern border with Mexico. The feds basically ignored it for years and still are not giving it serious attention. Muslim operatives have sneaked into the country for years through a porous border left open by ignorant, bribe ridden politicians. It is no telling what they have sneaked into our cities. They really do not have to have a suitcase nuke to kill us. All they need is radioactive material that they can drop in some waterway somewhere and soon hundreds of thousands will begin to deteriorate and die before the nuclear-contaminate is detected.

  Precisely, and they are untraceable, as they did not show papers crossing that border, so different that the 9/11 group that came to this country with visas . Also, we have no idea what they brought with them, and no idea where they are. Until they strike, they will blend in like ordinary immigrants.
