Al-Qaida No. 2 says 9/11 theory propagated by Iran
Source: AP

CAIRO, Egypt - Osama bin Laden's chief deputy on Tuesday denied a theory that Israel carried out the Sept. 11 attacks and blamed Iran and Shiite Hezbollah for spreading the idea to discredit the Sunni al-Qaida's strike against the U.S.

The comments in a recording posted on an Islamic Web site reflected the increasing criticism by al-Qaida's No. 2 leader Ayman al-Zawahri against Iran. Al-Zawahri has accused Iran in recent messages of seeking to extend its power in the Middle East, particularly in Iraq and through its Hezbollah allies in Lebanon.

The authenticity of the two-hour audio recording could not be independently confirmed. But the voice sounded like past audiotapes from the terror leader, and the posting where it was found bore the logo of Al-Sahab, al-Qaida's official media arm.

It was the second of two messages answering questions that were posted to Islamic militant Web sites earlier this year.

18. Bush fears leaving his post. You know, A REAL investigation?
Since Bush became President, almost all Americans have learned something about 'false flags', Cointelpro and the CIA's control of the 'news'.

Yes, it's been educational, to say the least.

What remains to be seen, once the Administration changes hands, is who agrees to stay silent. I know I'll be watching very closely.

2. So that's nice. Al-kayduh is afraid of losing street cred.
Looks like we've really got them on the run this time! Al-kayduh versus Iran! What is this, a godzilla movie?

5. Al-Qaeda accuses Iran of 9/11 lie
Source: BBC NEWS

Published: 2008/04/22 17:04:39 GMT

Al-Qaeda's deputy leader, Ayman al-Zawahiri, has blamed Iran for spreading the theory that Israel was behind the 11 September 2001 attacks. In an audio tape posted on the internet, Zawahiri insisted al-Qaeda had carried out the attacks on the US.

He accused Iran, and its Hezbollah allies, of trying to discredit Osama Bin Laden's network. Correspondents say the comments underline al-Qaeda's increasing public hostility towards Iran. In a two-hour audiotape posted on an Islamist website, Osama Bin Laden's chief deputy responded to questions posted by al-Qaeda sympathisers.

In response to a question about persistent rumours in the Middle East that Israel was involved in the 9/11 attacks, Zawahiri said the rumour had begun on the Hezbollah television station, Al-Manar. "The purpose of this lie is clear - that there are no heroes among the Sunnis who can hurt America as no-one else did in history, he said.

8. That's not how it works, though...
"Al-Qaeda" has always been "our" best friend. Don't you love how its propaganda lines up with the Bush regime's?

10. How more pathetic this (supposedly) intelligent species can become...
It's like a competition about "who's the meanest" or "who's the most murderous" or "who's the most disgusting"

WTF?

This species must truly be amusing itself to death...

And to think that it's only a tiny minority of mentally deranged fckups (junta included) who will be the cause of our own demise

PATHETIC

15. If we actually survive until 2100, I will be amazed; if we do, we might be in it for the long-term.
Of course, each and every day I am increasingly skeptical we will make it that far.

20. Let me get this straight....
Naw.

I'm laughing too hard.

Okay, okay...um...somebody pilots commercial jets into the WTC and the Pentagon, and NORAD is out to lunch (having been taken out to lunch by Donald Rumsfeld six months before). The Bushites say Al Qaeda did it, cuz there was a Koran in a their car in the airport parking lot, or something, and all the passports were from Saudi Arabia, and they immediately start planning to invade Iraq.

Iraq? Hm.

But first they invade Afhghanistan and start rounding up people to torture in Guantanamo Bay. Still no proof that Al Qaeda did it, or even who or what Al Qaeda is, and the tortured ones can't tell us, cuz they don't know anything. They're just Afghani grubs caught holding rifles when the U.S. invaded their country.

Bush keeps saying, "Al Kidda, Al Kidda, Al Kidda, I'm kiddin ya, it's the oil, stupids."

Al Kidda's legendary figure, Osama bin Ladden, who is running for president of the U.S., crawls out of a cave somewhere to issue tapes saying, "I d-did it! I d-did it! Ha-Ha!"

Not a good platform--but then you never know. It's a funny world.

Bush agrees with Osama bin Ladden. He orders the slaughter of the thousands more Afghani villagers for having been commie-lovers, back in the day. Osama bin Ladden escapes like Robin Hood-d over the hills. Secretly, the plan to invade Iraq proceeds.

It is actually Osama bin Ladden's war plan for ending imperialism. Get 'em bogged d-down in Iraq. Ha-Ha!

Meanwhile, all kinds of suspicions arise about who actually sent the planes into the WTC and the Pentagon (MIHOP) or who let them (LIHOP). Candidates: Miami anti-Castro Cubans. D-Donald Rumsfeld. Israel. Boeing, Blackwater and Bechtel. (Follow the money.) And more.

Bush keeps saying, "Al Kidda, Al Kidda, Al Kidda," as cover for his and Osama's war plans in Iraq. But Saddam Hussein gets in there sometimes as being tight with Al Kidda, whom he loathes. "Al Kidda, Saddam, Al Kidda, Saddam, Al Kidda, Saddam"--Bush starts saying, the two d's kind of resonating, and the New York Times says it's a fasionable new New Yorky kind of lispy song, that's all the rage. dede-dede-de-wmd. Get it? The shock and awe rock.

That done, they turn to Iran. No Q's. No K's. No D's. That's a problem. But they soon figure it out. Al Kidda is IN Iran, and they have wmD'S, too.

Iran's worried about Israel and even more about Pakistan, which really do have de-de's. They float the meme that Israel d-did 9/11, and Pakistan is a d-d-dictatorship and has Al Kidda, which Iran has none of. No da-da's in Iran of any kind. Maybe some doodahs. But, hey, people with oil can doodah, right? And this is where the CIA gets its scuttlebutt on whose got what dede's, and what kiddas, and what sadada's--from surveilling Iran. Otherwise, they wouldn't have a clue, d-dude.

Osama bin Forgotten feels rejected. He blasts Iran for lying that Israel had the DD's to drop the Towers of Imperialism. 'I mean, really. They've got to be...um... kiDDing!' Those D's again. Drudging up everywhere. Droning up. Dribbling up. Dressing up. Doodahing up. DeDe. SaDDam. Al KiDDa. WMDa-Da. D-Donald. D-Doozie.

21. Al Qaeda chief slams Muslims for lack of support
Al-Qaeda number two Ayman al-Zawahiri criticised Muslims for failing to support Islamist insurgencies in Iraq and elsewhere in a new audiotape posted Tuesday on the Internet.
Osama bin Laden's top lieutenant also blasted Palestinian Islamist movement Hamas over their reported readiness to consider a peace deal with Israel.

"I call upon the Muslim nation to fear Allah's question (at judgement day) about its failure to support its brothers of the Mujahedeen (holy Warriors), and (urge it) not to withhold men and money, which is the mainstay of a war," he said.

He also used the two-and-a-half hour message to urge Muslims to join militant groups, mainly in Iraq, where he claimed that the insurgency against the Iraqi government and the US-led coalition forces is bearing fruit.

"I urge all Muslims to hurry to the battlefields of Jihad (holy war), especially in Iraq," Zawahiri said in the message, the second in a two-part series to answer about 100 questions put to him via online militant forums.
