Spies Warn That Al Qaeda Aims for October Surprise

New York Sun
September 22, 2008
WASHINGTON — In the aftermath of two major terrorist attacks on Western targets, America’s counterterrorism community is warning that Al Qaeda may launch more overseas operations to influence the presidential elections in November.
Call it Osama bin Laden’s “October surprise.” In late August, during the weekend between the Democratic and Republican conventions, America’s military and intelligence agencies intercepted a series of messages from Al Qaeda’s leadership to intermediate members of the organization asking local cells to be prepared for imminent instructions.
An official familiar with the new intelligence said the message was picked up in multiple settings, from couriers to encrypted electronic communications to other means. “These are generic orders,” the source said — a distinction from the more specific intelligence about the location, time, and method of an attack. “It was, ‘Be on notice. We may call upon you soon.’ It was sent out on many channels.”

Also, Yemen’s national English-language newspaper is reporting that a spokesman for Yemen’s Islamic Jihad, the Qaeda affiliate that claimed credit for last week’s American embassy bombing in Sa’naa, is now publicly threatening to attack foreigners and high government officials if American and British diplomats do not leave the country.
Mr. bin Laden has sought to influence democratic elections in the past. On March 11, 2004, Al Qaeda carried out a series of bombings on Madrid commuter trains. Three days later, the opposition and anti-Iraq war Socialist Workers Party was voted into power.
In the week before the 2004 American presidential election, Mr. bin Laden recorded a video message to the American people promising repercussions if President Bush were re-elected. In later messages, Al Qaeda’s leader claimed credit for helping elect Mr. Bush in 2004. Last year in Pakistan, Qaeda assassins claimed the life of Benazir Bhutto, a former prime minister who returned to her native country in a bid for re-election.
“There is an expectation that Al Qaeda will try to influence the November elections by attempting attacks globally,” a former Bush and Clinton White House counterterrorism official, Roger Cressey, said yesterday.

For those who don’t really understand what the hell this article is talking about, I’ll translate it into truth that you can understand. Our government is getting ready to attack the United States under the disguise of a terrorist attack so that the Bush administration can declare martial law, suspend the constitution indefinitely, put most of us in FEMA camps and reduce the population of the U.S.A.

I’m sorry for such a long post, but i think it’s of utmost importance and relevant; Fanatical islamo-fascists with their dhimmitude (http://www.dhimmitude.org/), and the corrupt anglo-dutch banker elite who sponser terrorism need to be exposed before we are all in the toaster.
FYI
The zebiba used to be the mark of an elderly Muslim man, the fruit of a lifetime’s devotion, but it is increasingly seen on the faces of young Muslims. Literally meaning “a raisin”, the zebiba is a patch of hardened skin where the forehead touches the ground during Muslim prayers.
Dr Sayyed al-Qimni, one of Egypt’s best known liberal writers and historians, says society has been hijacked by a very conservative brand of religion, which he characterises as Saudi Wahhabi Islam.
“There are now 13,000 religious schools in Egypt that produce terrorists, like the Taliban madrassas in Pakistan. At religious schools they teach children that Muslims who do not pray should be killed.”
There is no doubt that in one way the Islamists are winning their struggle to increase the role religion plays in social life and public debate in this country. The question now is what kind of Muslim society is it trying to be – one that is at peace or at war with modern values.
Dozens of nations dominated by Islam are pressing the United Nations to adopt an anti-”defamation” plan that would make Christians criminals under international law, according to a United States organization that has launched a campaign to defend freedom of religion worldwide.
The “anti-defamation” plan has been submitted to the U.N. repeatedly since about 1999, starting out as a plan to ban “defamation” of Islam and later changed to refer to “religions,” officials said. It is being pushed by the 57-member Organization of the Islamic Conference nations, which has adopted the Cairo Declaration of Human Rights in Islam, “which states that all rights are subject to sharia law, and makes sharia law the only source of reference for human rights.”
The ACLJ petition, which is to be delivered to the United Nations High Commissioner on Human Rights, already had collected more than 23,000 names in just a brief online existence.
The ACLJ’s European division, the European Center for Law & Justice, also has launched its work on the issue. It submitted arguments last month to the U.N. in opposition to the proposal to institute sharia-based standards around the globe.
“The position of the ECLJ in regards to the issue of ‘defamation of religion’ resolutions, as they have been introduced at the U.N. Human Rights Council and General Assembly, is that they are in direct violation of international law concerning the rights to freedom of religion and expression,” the organization’s brief said.
“The ‘defamation of religion’ resolutions establish as the primary focus and concern the protection of ideas and religions generally, rather than protecting the rights of individuals to practice their religion, which is the chief purpose of international religious freedom law.”
“Furthermore, ‘defamation of religion’ replaces the existing objective criterion of limitations on speech where there is an intent to incite hatred or violence against religious believers with a subjective criterion that considers whether the religion or its believers feel offended by the speech,” the group continued.
Interestingly, in nations following Islam, the present practice is to use such laws to protect Islam and to attack religious minorities with penalties up to and including execution, the brief noted.
“What should be most disconcerting to the international community is that laws based on the concept of ‘defamation of religion’ actually help to create a climate of violence,” the argument explained.
For example, just two months ago an Afghanistan court following Islam sentenced to death a 23-year-old apprentice journalist who had downloaded an article from an Iranian website and brought it to his class, the ECLJ said. Other instances include:
* Award-winning author Mark Steyn has been summoned to appear before two Canadian Human Rights Commissions of vague allegations of “subjecting Canadian Muslims to hatred and contempt” for comments in his book, “America Alone,” the group said.
* In Pakistan, 15 people were accused of blasphemy against Islam during the first four months of 2008, the organization said.
* Another Pakistani man sentenced to life in prison for desecrating the Quran was jailed for six years before being acquitted of the charge.
* In Saudi Arabia a teacher was sentenced to three years in prison plus 300 lashes “for expressing his views in a classroom.”
* In the United Kingdom, police announced plans to arrest a blogger for “anti-Muslim” statements.
* In the United States, a plaintiff sued his Internet service provider for refusing “to prevent participants in an online chat room from posting or submitting harassing comments that blasphemed and defamed plaintiff’s Islamic religion.”
The ECLJ said, “The implementation of domestic laws to combat defamation of religion in many OIC countries reveals a selective and arbitrary enforcement toward religious minorities, who are often Christians. Those violations are frequently punishable by the death penalty.”
The newest “anti-defamation” plan was submitted in March. It specifically cites a declaration “adopted by the Islamic Conference of Foreign Ministers” at a meeting in Islamabad “which condemned the growing trend of Islamophobia and systematic discrimination against adherents of Islam.”
It also cites the dictates from the OIC meeting in Dakar, “in which the Organization expressed concern at the systematically negative stereotyping of Muslims and Islam and other divine religions.”
It goes on to cite a wide range of other practices that “target” Islam, but does not mention any other religions, and urges all nations to provide “adequate protection against acts of hatred, discrimination, intimidation and coercion resulting from the defamation of any religion.”
According to published reports, the U.N. Commission on Human Rights’ 53 members voted to adopt the resolution earlier this year, with opposition from the United States and the European Union.
At the time, Cuba’s delegate, Rodolfo Reyes Rodriguez, said: “Islam has been the subject of very deep campaign of defamation.”
“They’re attempting to pass a sinister resolution that is nothing more than blatant religious bigotry,” the ACLJ said in its promotion of its petition. “This is very important to understand. This radical proposal would outlaw Christianity … it would make the proclamation of your faith an international crime.”
“In his recent dissent on the Supreme Court’s ruling on Guantanamo Bay, Justice Scalia said, ‘America is at war with radical Islamists.’ Never has this rung more true than today. Never have Christians been more targeted for their religious beliefs. And never have we faced a more dangerous threat than the one posed by the OIC,” the ACLJ said.
The U.S. State Department also has found the proposal unpalatable.
“This resolution is incomplete inasmuch as it fails to address the situation of all religions,” said the statement from Leonard Leo. “We believe that such inclusive language would have furthered the objective of promoting religious freedom. We also believe that any resolution on this topic must include mention of the need to change educational systems that promote hatred of other religions, as well as the problem of state-sponsored media that negatively targets any one religion.”

#2 Patriot, Martial law is on call beginning Oct.1 here is the link: http://www.armytimes.com/news/.....d_090708w/
And yes, they are going to attack. They know that the AmeriKan people are waking up; leading inevitably to an uprising. The despots know they are going to be hunted down by the middle class that has been reduced to peasants, and must therefore hide behind the military to save themselves. Hopefully our men and women in uniform will remember who they are supposed to be protecting, and realize that they have been deceived.
The article link I posted confirms your thoughts. There is also a great deal of suspicion that the election will be suspended as well… God bless us all.

Im really starting to think bin laden or “BIN FORGETTON” is a fable and does not exist, A created terror to fool the public. I would suggest to watch this movie called, EQUALIBRIUM. You have to watch it and you will understand and believe this is what is happening today.
this movie came out in 2002 and was shelved by hollywood because of the whole war on terrorism and any movies that make the government look bad were not released at that time. this was quietly put on the market and is a great film. Cristian bale from batman stars in it.

It’s simply amazing to see things unfolding exactly as “us-in-the-know” have long ago figured out and agreed that they would. Another state sponsored, false-flag terrorist attack used to then declare martial law, suspend the Constitution, suspend the elections and there you have it….more neo-con controlled government, but this time leading to the creation of the North American Union which will be exactly what the NWO requires. Once the U.S. officially asks for creation of the N.A. Union (while under martial law so that citizens here cannot intervene without losing everything including their lives), it’s a done deal and we’re toast.
Many are saying that this “Oct. surprise” will likely happen over-seas but I believe otherwise….cuz an attack over-seas wouldn’t nearly have enough of an emotional affect (inciting fear and anger) amongst most people here. So you have to ask yourself, what’s it gonna be, where’s it gonna happen and just how LOW will the gov. stoop to get the job done this time around. If you’re not afraid or at least concerned, you should be…we all know enough to see that this big mess is soon going to get even messier.

Don’t be suprised if you see lots of money going into Afghanistan.

The height of hubris…scheduling another “Al-LIE-da” attack to inaugurate martial law and watch that Nazi cowboy act tough to the cattle a little bit longer. I just gotta wonder how many idiots are really gonna fall for it. Tell ya what, if we start getting pushed around by a bunch of fat tattooed skinhead unmarked “cops” wearing jeans and black ball caps turned backwards and sportin’ AKs, there will definitely be some homegrown American whoop ass opened up! Then if they break out the heavy artillery on us, it’s called declaring “Martial War” on the People. At that point, ask yourself who are the real terrorists here? Then ask yourself what your grandpa would expect you to do. I constantly imagine a group of gentlemen from the First Continental Congress gazing over the balconies of Heaven wondering in sad lament: “How could it have ever come to this?”

You worry about the Muslims of Al Qaeda? Here in Australia we heard that the Catholics pedophiles that had sex with American children used Boston as a heaven. Do not be surprise if something bigger than Al Qaeda hits the USA with ’shock and all’ if the USA President doe not stop been friend of the Pope. Civil War may brake out for not hunting the Pope like Osama Bin Ladden. The Pope and the members of the Roman Catholic Church are terrorist and needs to be taken to The Hague for commiting crimes against humanity. The USA President has to choose: You are with the Law or you are with the Catholics.

Lemme guess…
Source of this information, the “spies”…
Actually a cross-national intelligence cell instructed and managed by none other than…
JULIA CHILD?!
I thought she was dead!
September 24th, 2008 at 10:57 am
If it’s the same al Qaeda that’s behind the WTC destruction they won’t stop untill either they are dead or this country.
September 24th, 2008 at 1:11 pm
You have to give them credit,they are pretty slick. Another bombing engineered by by the by us government,in order to manipulate the elections,is probably just what were about to see. Its to put the fear into the people that we are in grave danger from the terrorist boogiemen.So either we will be frightend into supporting the sabre rattling Mcain or supporting the Bush administrations power grab technique, to hold power declare marshall law susspend elections indefinately and continue their plans for worl dommination.Its a semi bloodless coup d’etat.They are good. Predictable,, but good.

Veritas you must be a member of the second six. Demonizing nations that oppose the real evil empire of United State and the new world order it represents. Any of those countries you listed below except Russia do not have any power to stand up to Evil US empire. Go back to worshiping your real father the Satan and stop fear mongering. I see that EU and Israel are not on your list as well as Germany is not present. In other words you must be saying that US is the only good country that is blessed by God to usher in the new world order and the country’s on the list below are Satan followers. Did not Bush senior say that there is no more Soviet Union and that now there is a New World Order? You are either nuts or you are a part of New World Order machine.
THE THIRD ‘SIX’ – THE UNHOLY ALLIANCE
The ‘Unholy Alliance’ presently consists of the core
group of: Russia, China, N. Korea, Japan, Indonesia,
Pakistan, India, Iran, Iraq, Syria, Turkey, Afghanistan,
Serbia, Sudan, Libya, Cuba, Venezuela, Bolivia,
Nicaragua, and El Salvador. They oppose the True God,
and as an alliance, are already in existence and
operating. More nations will shortly be added.
September 25th, 2008 at 12:34 pm
OH, OH, OH….
I WANT TO BE ADDED TO THE UNHOLY ALLIANCE!!!!!
DO I GET TO USE A REALLY COOL SECRET HANDSHAKE???
God help us all.
