INSPIRE MAGAZINE’S TERRORIST MESSAGE: ALFREDO KUILAN
http://www.familysecuritymatters.org/publications/id.8536/pub_detail.asp Al Qaeda’s “Inspire” Alfredo Kuilan
The newest issue of Al Qaeda’s Inspire magazine (Winter 2010) has hit the Jihadi newsstands, and all of the media outlets are concentrating on the cover story. Written by Anwar al-Awlaki, it is a justification or rationalization on stealing money for the Jihad. The real story is buried within the rest of the magazine.
The Jihadists always tell us what they were going to do. They told us that they were going to destroy the World Trade Center and they did. They tell us that they will use our own citizens and they do. They can clue us in on what they are thinking because they are patient. They love our national Attention Deficit Disorder. We do not possess the ability to concentrate on more than one subject at a time. Of course the majority of Americans remember bin Laden and know that Islamic extremist are looking to do us harm. Some Americans believe that the Jihadist problem is too far away and too complicated for them to consider.
Unfortunately, Jihad is not the only problem that America faces. I can understand why the regular Joe could care less about militant Islam when he or she is trying to put food on the table or keep their jobs. Jihadists thrive on this lack of knowledge and they take advantage of it. In the days prior to 9/11 or soon thereafter, radical Imams would visit from afar and would rail in Arabic about the kuffar and individual duty of every Muslim to participate in Jihad. The translator would then change the words and make them more palatable to any non-Arabic speaking spy that might be in their ranks. Regardless, they told us their true intentions.
In this issue of their magazine they cover several topics. They include stories of Jihadi activity around the globe and instructional material such as, how to take apart your AK47 assault rifle or blow up a building. On page three, where the articles are listed, the main focus is not the main story but a graphic of their article on how to destroy buildings. I sincerely do not think that this was a creative editorial decision, but a clue to us, the kuffar, on their intentions.
This is illustrated in their first issue (Fall 2010), on page 19, they show a picture of Ramzi Yousef. In the 1990s, Yousef and Khalid Shaykh Muhammad developed a plan to blow up 12 airliners flying from Asia to the United States. I believe, this graphic, was a hint regarding the 2010 plot to blow up UPS planes flying from Yemen into Europe and the United States.
The emphasis on destroying residential and commercial buildings brings up the moral question on killing the innocent civilians who occupy these buildings. The attempted justification comes in the form of an article, on page 20, written by Shaykh Adil al-Abbab who justifies the killing of the innocents by quoting the surahs and hadiths. On page 67 they printed a picture of the Capitol Building. I believe that this is their main target. So with this, I predict that their targets are residential and commercial buildings in the United States with the Capitol Building being their main target. Of course I can be totally off base with this, and I hope that I am. It is not only published to seek the attention that they so dearly desire, but as a poke in the eyes of the American people. It is a threat and part of their marketing campaign. They laugh at us knowing that they have shown us their cards and we will still lose the game.
The media should concentrate on what AQ is telling us in this magazine that they publish. Unfortunately they probably believe that it is politically incorrect to show the Jihadist in a bad light. As I have written before, political correctness will kill us. We must point out who the enemy is because they are also the enemy of good Muslims.
