"What is coming to the Americans will not, by the will of God, be less than what has come," the newspaper quoted al Qaeda spokesman Sulaiman bu Ghaith as saying in a statement.




Better hope they dont have a nuke if they get through our intelligence again.

The question is not if, but when.

We will never be able to stop them completely.

I hope he enjoys spending the rest of eternity a little closer to hell, roughly 6 feet closer....

I find it highly peculiar that only London-based Arab newspapers seem to get letters from people claiming to be members of al-Qaeda or the Taleban.

How many of these guys are out there? How and from where are they going to fight? While on the run and in the middle of a nuclear war in Pakistan?

If they can create terror just by making verbal threats, they can beat us without using any weaponry other than words. :(

That's some extremely creative "logic". Disseminating verbal threats is infinitely easier than disseminating weaponry.

Why would they warn us unless they are just trying to scare us? Seems they want to cause our economy problems and scare everyone.

If they had anything big in the pipeline they wouldn't be warning us so that we could increase our defenses. They are playing terrorist mind games with us now.

They are playing 'crying wolves' apparently to their advantage. C'est la vie, unfortunately.

I don't doubt Al Qaeda is planning more attacks, but I have a really hard time believing that letter is from one of them.

It is a bit disturbing that some people seem to take pleasure in the U.S. situation. Some of you seem to enjoy this. Do you harbour some displeasure with us? Do you dislike us because of our prosperity and freedom. Have you considered that you will be next if these rat bastards succeed in their vendetta against the United States of America. Do you have the mental capacity to understand that, without the United States of America, you are nothing more than a goat tied to a stake awaiting the wolf?

Like I said in one of the other threads, these threats might actually be the "second terrorist attack". Think about it, they make these threats, people in USA live in fear, the government increses security (which increases costs and limits civil-liberties). They are not attacking USA, they are attacking the american way of life.

time to realize this, I could just as easily send a threat tothe US government stating I am Osama bin Laden and tghat I was going to launch a nuke on this date...doesn't mean it's true.

Hell, I can be whoever I want, even Osamas mother, although if I was Osamas mother I'd shoot myself in dismay.

well i for one do not live in fear. I won't let them win. Whatever happens will happen, and being scared isn't gonna change what's gonna happen. In the end, they will get what's coming to them.
