Louis I read with total lack of surprise the reasoned and carefully planned strategy that matches everything I have researched about the fundamentalist Islamic mind and world view. Unfortunately when one points out things such as this document one is called a nazi, a zionist, a paranoic or at best
a delude Cassaindra. Unfortunately most Americans don't knwo who Cassandra was, what she warned or...adn worst of all that she was right. But then who pays attention to Greek literature anymore? The article "The Road to Babylon" in Harper's Magazine was such a reasoned referral to the lessons of history. It is a sad and almost cowardly move to go and buy gold for our own (individual) interest and survival. The West has no idea what it is up against and don't pay attention even though no less than Salman Rushdie himself warns us two weeks after 9/11 that we are fools to think of or deal with Islam as peaceful. The shrub is a fool. Everyone on the other side is a fool. This has become the land of the ostrich. Wish I could cry about it. That is not in my nature, I would rather fight...rigth down the street at the local full mosque, but I would be arrested for violating the laws of the land, and of course the First Amendment. A dilemna...something for which there is no (politically correct) solution. Oh, well, nothing lasts forever...even the USA

Louis,

Does this sound like it was written by a psyops officer at the CIA? It sure does to me.

Why in the world would the leadership of the al Qaeda indicate to the world that they are about to perpetrate massive crimes against humanity? It makes no sense for them to do so.

However, it does make perfect sense for a sinister government agency, intent on terrorizing its own population for the power and control that is to be gained to create just such a fiction.

It's been done before. Remember the terrifying things the Nazis had to say about the Satanic Poles in the late 1930's. They were monsters. Just like al Qaeda's so-called "first echelon" are self-described in this fantasy piece as monsters within our own borders.

As a piece of fiction, were I to be rating this for a creative writing course, I'd rate it a C-. It lacks credibility, is a merely generalized ghost story and will be swallowed by only the most naive of readers.

Cheerio! Ray

Too funny. C'mon guys, use your thinking caps. Al Qaeda wants to destroy the US because we didn't ratify the Kyoto treaty or sign on to the International Criminal Court?

Helloooo?

It's a hoax.
