"All praise is due to Allah, who built the
heavens and earth in justice, and created man as
a favor and grace from Him. And from His ways is
that the days rotate between the people, and
from His Law is retaliation in kind: an eye for
an eye, a tooth for a tooth and the killer is
killed. And all praise is due to Allah, who
awakened His slaves' desire for the Garden, and
all of them will enter it except those who
refuse. And whoever obeys Him alone in all of
his affairs will enter the Garden, and whoever
disobeys Him will have refused."
"As for what
comes after: Peace be upon he who follows the
Guidance. People of America: I shall be speaking
to you on important topics which concern you, so
lend me your ears. I begin by discussing the war
which is between us and some of its
repercussions for us and you."
"To preface, I say: despite America being the
greatest economic power and possessing the most
powerful and up-to-date military arsenal as
well; and despite it spending on this war and is
army more than the entire world spends on its
armies; and despite it being the being the major
state influencing the policies of the world, as
if it has a monopoly on the unjust right of
veto; despite all of this, 19 young men were
able - by the grace of Allah, the Most High- to
change the direction of its compass. And in
fact, the subject of the Mujahideen has become
an inseparable part of the speech of your
leader, and the effects and signs of that are
not hidden."
"Since the 11th, many of America's policies
have come under the influence of the Mujahideen,
and that is by the grace of Allah, the Most
High. And as a result, the people discovered the
truth about it, its reputation worsened, its
prestige was broken globally and it was bled dry
economically, even if our interests overlap with
the interests of the major corporations and also
with those of the neoconservatives, despite the
differing intentions."
"And for your information media, during the
first years of the war, lost its credibility and
manifested itself as a tool of the colonialist
empires, and its condition has often been worse
than the condition of the media of the
dictatorial regimes which march in the caravan
of the single leader."
"Then Bush talks about his working with al-Maliki
and his government to spread freedom in Iraq but
he in fact is working with the leaders of one
sect against another sect, in the belief that
this will quickly decide the war in his favor."
"And thus, what is called the civil war came
into being and matters worsened at his hands
before getting out of his control and him
becoming like the one who plows and sows the
sea: he harvests nothing but failure."
"So these are some of the results of the
freedom about whose spreading he is talking to
you. And then the backtracking of Bush on his
insistence on not giving the United Nations
expanded jurisdiction in Iraq is an implicit
admission of his loss and defeat there. "
"And among the most important items contained
in Bush’s speeches since the events of the 11th
is that the Americans have no option but to
continue the war. This tone is in fact an
echoing of the words of neoconservatives like
Cheney, Rumsfeld and Richard Pearle, the latter
having said previously that the Americans have
no choice in front of them other than to
continue the war or face a holocaust."
"I say, refuting this unjust statement, that
the morality and culture of the holocaust is
your culture, not our culture. In fact, burning
living beings is forbidden in our religion, even
if they be small like the ant, so what of man?!
The holocaust of the Jews was carried out by
your brethren in the middle of Europe, but had
it been closer to our countries, most of the
Jews would have been saved by taking refuge with
us. And my proof for that is in what your
brothers, the Spanish, did when they set up the
horrible courts of the Inquisition to try
Muslims and Jews, when the Jews only found safe
shelter by taking refuge in our countries. And
that is why the Jewish community in Morocco
today is one of the largest communities in the
world. They are alive with us and we have not
incinerated them, but we are a people who don't
sleep under oppression and reject humiliation
and disgrace, and we take revenge on the people
of tyranny and aggression, and the blood of the
Muslims will not be spilled with impunity, and
the morrow is nigh for he who awaits."
"Also, your Christian brothers have been
living among us for 14 centuries: in Egypt
alone, there are millions of Christians whom we
have not incinerated and shall not incinerate.
But the fact is, there is a continuing and
biased campaign being waged against us for a
long time now by your politicians and many of
your writers by way of your media, especially
Hollywood, for the purpose of misrepresenting
Islam and its adherents to drive you away from
the true religion. The genocide of peoples and
their holocausts took place at your hands: only
a few specimens of Red Indians were spared, and
just a few days ago, the Japanese observed the
62nd anniversary of the annihilation of
Hiroshima and Nagasaki by your nuclear weapons."
"And among the things which catch the eye of
the one who considers the repercussions of your
unjust war against Iraq is the failure of your
democratic system, despite it raising of the
slogans of justice, liberty, equality and
humanitarianism. It has not only failed to
achieve these things, it has actually destroyed
these and other concepts with its weapons -
especially in Iraq and Afghanistan- in a brazen
fashion, to replace them with fear, destruction,
killing, hunger, illness, displacement and more
than a million orphans in Baghdad alone, not to
mention hundreds of thousands of widows.
Americans statistics speak of the killing of
more than 650,000 of the people of Iraq as a
result of the war and its repercussions."
"People of America: the world is following
your news in regards to your invasion of Iraq,
for people have recently come to know that,
after several years of the tragedies of this
war, the vast majority of you want it stopped.
Thus, you elected the Democratic Party for this
purpose, but the Democrats haven't made a move
worth mentioning. On the contrary, they continue
to agree to the spending of tens of billions to
continue the killing and war there, which has
led to the vast majority of you being afflicted
with disappointment."
"And here is the gist of the matter, so one
should pause, think and reflect: why have the
Democrats failed to stop this war, despite them
being the majority?"
"I will come back to reply to this question
after raising another question, which is:"
"Why are the leaders of the White House keen
to start wars and wage them around the world,
and make use of every possible opportunity
through which they can reach this purpose,
occasionally even creating justifications based
on deception and blatant lies, as you saw Iraq?"
"In the Vietnam War, the leaders of the White
House claimed at the time that it was a
necessary and crucial war, and during it,
Rumsfeld and his aides murdered two million
villagers. And when Kennedy took over the
presidency and deviated from the general line of
policy drawn up for the White House and wanted
to stop this unjust war, that angered the owners
of the major corporations who were benefiting
from its continuation."
"And so Kennedy was killed, and al-Qaida
wasn’t present at that time, but rather, those
corporations were the primary beneficiary from
his killing. And the war continued after that
for approximately one decade. But after it
became clear to you that it was an unjust and
unnecessary war, you made one of your greatest
mistakes, in that you neither brought to account
nor punished those who waged this war, not even
the most violent of its murderers, Rumsfeld. And
even more incredible than that is that Bush
picked him as secretary of defense in his first
term after picking Cheney as his vice president,
Powell as secretary of state and Armitage as
Powell's deputy, despite their horrific and
blood history of murdering humans. So that was
clear signal that his administration - the
administration of the generals- didn't have as
its main concern the serving of humanity, but
rather, was interested in bringing about new
massacres. Yet in spite of that, you permitted
Bush to complete his first term, and stranger
still, chose him for a second term, which gave
him a clear mandate from you - with your full
knowledge and consent- to continue to murder our
people in Iraq and Afghanistan."
"Then you claim to be innocent! This
innocence of yours is like my innocence of the
blood of your sons on the 11th - were I to claim
such a thing. But it is impossible for me to
humor any of you in the arrogance and
indifference you show for the lives of humans
outside America, or for me to humor your leaders
in their lying, as the entire world knows they
have the lion's share of that. These morals
aren't our morals. What I want to emphasize here
is that not taking past war criminals to account
led to them repeating that crime of killing
humanity without right and waging this unjust
war in Mesopotamia, and as a result, here are
the oppressed ones today continuing to take
their right from you."
"This war was entirely unnecessary, as
testified to by your own reports. And among the
most capable of those from your own side who
speak to you on this topic and on the
manufacturing of public opinion is Noam Chomsky,
who spoke sober words of advice prior to the
war, but the leader of Texas doesn't like those
who give advice. The entire world came out in
unprecedented demonstrations to warn against
waging the war and describe its true nature in
eloquent terms like "no to spilling red blood
for black oil," yet he paid them no heed. It is
time for humankind to know that talk of the
rights of man and freedom are lies produced by
the White House and its allies in Europe to
deceive humans, take control of their destinies
and subjugate them. "
"So in answer to the question about the
causes of the Democrats' failure to stop the
war, I say: they are the same reasons which led
to the failure of former president Kennedy to
stop the Vietnam war. Those with real power and
influence are those with the most capital. And
since the democratic system permits major
corporations to back candidates, be they
presidential or congressional, there shouldn't
be any cause for astonishment - and there isn't
any- in the Democrats' failure to stop the war.
And you're the ones who have the saying which
goes, "Money talks." And I tell you: after the
failure of your representatives in the
Democratic Party to implement your desire to
stop the war, you can still carry anti-war
placards and spread out in the streets of major
cities, then go back to your homes, but that
will be of no use and will lead to the
prolonging of the war."
"However, there are two solutions for
stopping it. The first is from our side, and it
is to continue to escalate the killing and
fighting against you. This is our duty, and our
brothers are carrying it out, and I ask Allah to
grant them resolve and victory. And the second
solution is from your side. It has now become
clear to you and the entire world the impotence
of the democratic system and how it plays with
the interests of the peoples and their blood by
sacrificing soldiers and populations to achieve
the interests of the major corporations."
"And with that, it has become clear to all
that they are the real tyrannical terrorists. In
fact, the life of all of mankind is in danger
because of the global warming resulting to a
large degree from the emissions of the factories
of the major corporations, yet despite that, the
representative of these corporations in the
White House insists on not observing the Kyoto
accord, with the knowledge that the statistic
speaks of the death and displacement of the
millions of human beings because of that,
especially in Africa. This greatest of plagues
and most dangerous of threats to the lives of
humans is taking place in an accelerating
fashion as the world is being dominated by the
democratic system, which confirms its massive
failure to protect humans and their interests
from the greed and avarice of the major
corporations and their representatives."
"And despite this brazen attack on the
people, the leaders of the West - especially
Bush, Blair, Sarkozy and Brown- still talk about
freedom and human rights with a flagrant
disregard for the intellects of human beings. So
is there a form of terrorism stronger, clearer
and more dangerous than this? This is why I tell
you: as you liberated yourselves before from the
slavery of monks, kings, and feudalism, you
should liberate yourselves from the deception,
shackles and attrition of the capitalist
system."
"If you were to ponder it well, you would
find that in the end, it is a system harsher and
fiercer than your systems in the Middle Ages.
The capitalist system seeks to turn the entire
world into a fiefdom of the major corporations
under the label of "globalization" in order to
protect democracy."
"And Iraq and Afghanistan and their
tragedies; and the reeling of many of you under
the burden of interest-related debts, insane
taxes and real estate mortgages; global warming
and its woes; and the abject poverty and tragic
hunger in Africa: all of this is but one side of
the grim face of this global system."
"So it is imperative that you free yourselves
from all of that and search for an alternative,
upright methodology in which it is not the
business of any class of humanity to lay down
its own laws to its own advantage at the expense
of the other classes as is the case with you,
since the essence of man-made positive laws is
that they serve the interests of those with the
capital and thus make the rich richer and the
poor poorer."
"The infallible methodology is the
methodology of Allah, the Most High, who created
the heavens and earth and created the Creation
and is the Most Kind and All-Informed and the
Knower of the souls of His slaves and the
methodology that best suits them."
"You believe with absolute certainty that you
believe in Allah, and you are full of conviction
of this belief, so much so that you have written
this belief of yours on your dollar."
"But the truth is that you are mistake in
this belief of yours. The impartial judge knows
that belief in Allah requires straightness in
the following of His methodology, and
accordingly, total obedience must be to the
orders and prohibitions of Allah Alone in all
aspects of life."
"So how about you when you associate others
with Him in your beliefs and separate state from
religion, then claim that you are believers?!"
"What you have done is clear loss and
manifest polytheism, And I will give you a
parable of polytheism, as parables summarize and
clarify speech."
"I tell you: its parable is the parable of a
man who owns a shop and hires a worker and tells
him, "Sell and give me the money," but he makes
sales and give the money to someone other than
the owner. So who of you would approve of that?"
"You believe that Allah is your Lord and your
Creator and the Creator of this earth and that
it is His property, then you work on His earth
and property without His orders and without
obeying Him, and you legislate in contradiction
to His Law and methodology."
"This work of yours is the greatest form of
polytheism and is rebellion against obedience to
Allah with which the believer becomes an
unbeliever, even if he obeys Allah in some of
His other orders. Allah, the Most High, sent
down His orders in His Sacred Books like the
Torah and Evangel and sent with them the
Messengers (Allah's prayers and peace be upon
them) as bearers of good news to the people."
"And everyone who believes in them and
complies with them is a believer from the people
of the Garden. Then when the men of knowledge
altered the words of Allah, the Most High, and
sold them for a paltry price, as the rabbis did
with the Torah and the monks with the Evangel,
Allah sent down His final Book, the magnificent
Quran, and safeguarded it from being added to or
subtracted from by the hands of men, and in it
is a complete methodology for the lives of all
people."
"And our holding firm to this magnificent
Book is the secret of our strength and winning
of the war against you despite the fewness of
our numbers and materiel. And if you would like
to get to know some of the reasons for your
losing of your war against us, then read the
book of Michael Scheuer in this regard."
"Don't be turned away from Islam by the
terrible situation of the Muslims today, for our
rulers in general abandoned Islam many decades
ago, but our forefathers were the leaders and
pioneers of the world for many centuries, when
they held firmly to Islam."
"And before concluding, I tell you: there has
been an increase in the thinkers who study
events and happenings, and on the basis of their
study, they have declared the approach of the
collapse of the American Empire."
"Among them is the European thinker who
anticipated the fall of the Soviet Union, which
indeed fell. And it would benefit you to read
what he wrote about what comes after the empire
in regard to the United States of America. I
also want to bring your attention that among the
greatest reasons for the collapse of the Soviet
Union was their being afflicted with their
leader Brezhnev, who was overtaken by pride and
arrogance and refused to look at the facts on
the ground. From the first year of the
Afghanistan invasion, reports indicated that the
Russians were losing the war, but he refused to
acknowledge this, lest it go down in his
personal history as a defeat, even though
refusal to acknowledge defeat not only doesn't
do anything to change the facts for thinking
people, but also exacerbates the problem and
increases the losses. And how similar is your
position today to their position approximately
two decades ago. The mistakes of Brezhnev are
being repeated by Bush, who - when asked about
the date of his withdrawing of forces from Iraq
- said in effect that the withdrawal will not be
during his reign, but rather, during the reign
of the one who succeeds him. And the
significance of these words is not hidden."
"And here I say: it would benefit you to
listen to the poignant messages of your soldiers
in Iraq, who are paying - with their blood,
nerves and scattered limbs - the price for these
sorts of irresponsible statements. Among them is
the eloquent message of Joshua which he sent by
way of the media, in which he wipes the tears
from his eyes and describes American politicians
in harsh terms and invites them to join him
there for a few days. Perhaps his message will
find in you an attentive ear so you can rescue
him and more than 150,000 of your sons there who
are tasting the two bitterest things: "
"If they leave their barracks, the mines
devour them, and if they refuse to leave,
rulings are passed against them. Thus, the only
options left in front of them are to commit
suicide or cry, both of which are from the
severest of afflictions. So is there anything
more men can do after crying and killing
themselves to make you respond to them? They are
doing that out of the severity of the
humiliation, fear and terror which they are
suffering. It is severer than what the slaves
used to suffer at your hands centuries ago, and
it is as if some of them have gone from one
slavery to another slavery more severe and
harmful, even if it be in the fancy dress of the
Defense Department's financial enticements."
"So do you feel the greatness of their
sufferings?"
"To conclude, I invite you to embrace Islam,
for the greatest mistake one can make in this
world and one which is uncorrectable is to die
while not surrendering to Allah, the Most High,
in all aspects of one's life - ie., to die
outside of Islam. And Islam means gain for you
in this first life and the next, final life. The
true religion is a mercy for people in their
lives, filling their hearts with serenity and
calm."
T"here is a message for you in the
Mujahideen: the entire world is in pursuit of
them, yet their hearts, by the grace of Allah,
are satisfied and tranquil. The true religion
also puts peoples' lives in order with its laws;
protects their needs and interests; refines
their morals; protects them from evils; and
guarantees for them entrance into Paradise in
the hereafter through their obedience to Allah
and sincere worship of Him Alone."
"And it will also achieve your desire to stop
the war as a consequence, because as soon as the
warmongering owners of the major corporations
realize that you have lost confidence in your
democratic system and begun to search for an
alternative, and that this alternative is Islam,
they will run after you to please you and
achieve what you want to steer you away from
Islam. So your true compliance with Islam will
deprive them of the opportunity to defraud the
peoples and take their money under numerous
pretexts, like arms deals and so on. "
"There are no taxes in Islam, but rather
there is a limited Zakaat [alms] totaling only
2.5%. So beware of the deception of those with
the capital. And with your earnest reading about
Islam from its pristine sources, you will arrive
at an important truth, which is that the
religion of all of the Prophets (peace and
blessings of Allah be upon them) is one, and
that its essence is submission to the orders of
Allah Alone in all aspects of life, even if
their Shari'ahs [Laws] differ."
"And did you know that the name of the
Prophet of Allah Jesus and his mother (peace and
blessings of Allah be on them both) are
mentioned in the Noble Quran dozens of times,
and that in the Quran there is a chapter whose
name is "Maryam," i.e. Mary, daughter of 'Imran
and mother of Jesus (peace and blessings of
Allah be upon them both)? It tells the story of
her becoming pregnant with the Prophet of Allah
Jesus (peace and blessings of Allah be upon them
both), and in its confirmation of her chastity
and purity, in contrast to the fabrications of
the Jews against her. Whoever wishes to find
that out for himself must listen to the verse of
this magnificent chapter: one of the just kings
of the Christians - the Negus - listened to some
of its verses and his eyes welled up with tears
and he said something which should be reflected
on for a long time by those sincere in their
search for the truth."
"He said, "verily, this and what Jesus
brought come from one lantern": i.e., that the
magnificent Quran and the Evangel are both from
Allah, the Most High; and every just and
intelligent one of you who reflects on the Quran
will definitely arrive at this truth. It also
must be noted that Allah has preserved the Quran
from the alterations of men. And reading in
order to become acquainted with Islam only
requires a little effort, and those of you who
are guided will profit greatly. And peace be
upon he who follows the Guidance."
