Al Qaida: Germany Surrender, Run Away and We Won't Kill You

Germany has an option. Withdraw troops or be attacked. Unless their intelligence services can root out the terrorists on their soil before, it will happen. The question is, just before the election or within the two weeks after, as the video warns. if I was al qaida, I would follow their previous win in Spain - attack in the hours, days just before ... the electorate runs to the polls terrified of another attack if they don't vote to remove their troops.

The West believes Al Qaida (which I use as an umbrella for all Islamo-fascist/terrorism) is not much different than the Soviet union/Communism. We simply need to accommodate it, make deals, give a little and get a little.

The West is dead wrong.

Unfortunately for us, we are not dealing with simple ideology - it is life and death. With the Soviets, we could all live if we simply did not oppose them. With al qaida, we can convert, or ultimately die (I exclude jizya due to the fact it is imposed and would only be a transitional condition to either conversion or opposition).

The choices are clear. It is a war against Islamo-fascism, regardless of whether Obama feels it is or not.





Germany: al-Qaida posts video with new threat

BERLIN (AP) - Al-Qaida has posted a new video threatening Germany, highlighting an increased threat level ahead of national elections and prompting authorities to step up security, the Interior Ministry said Friday.

The ministry gave no details of the al-Qaida posting, but said in a brief statement it underlines the fact that the Sept. 27 elections offer "a particular background for propaganda and operational actions by terrorist groups."

It said authorities believe there is an "increased threat situation" to which they are responding with "adjusted security measures in particular at airports and stations."

ARD television reported that the video features a German-speaker who has featured in previous videos over the past year, issuing a threat connected to Germany's troop presence in Afghanistan.

"If the people decides for a continuation of the war, it has delivered its own verdict," the channel quoted Bekkay Harrach, who uses the pseudonym Abu Talha, as saying in the video. "The parliamentary election is the people's only opportunity to shape the policy of the country."

He adds that "with the withdrawal of the last German soldiers, the last mujahedeen also will be withdrawn from Germany."

IntelCenter, another company that monitors terrorist propaganda, said Harrach warned that, if Germans do not vote for a change of government, there will be a "bad awakening" after the election.

He asked his Muslim "brethren" to "stay away from anything not vital for two weeks after the election," the group said.

Germany has more than 4,200 soldiers in Afghanistan. The deployment is unpopular, but has not been a significant issue in the election campaign.

Only one of the five parties in parliament, the opposition Left Party, advocates an immediate withdrawal from Afghanistan, and it has no realistic chance of joining the next government.

Authorities have said Harrach, a German of Moroccan background, is believed to have lived for many years in Bonn and now to be in the Pakistan-Afghanistan border area.

German officials have over recent months described new videos featuring German-speakers as part of a "new quality" of threats. The Interior Ministry underlined that on Friday.

Direct threats to Germany by al-Qaida and other organizations since the beginning of this year "are reaching a new quality," it said.
