Did you see the al quaeda tape with an American convert?
CAIRO, Egypt -- Al Qaeda's deputy leader Ayman al-Zawahri issued a new videotape Saturday along with a California man identified as an American member of the terror network, inviting Americans to convert to Islam.

The 41-minute video, posted on an Islamic militant Web site nine days before the fifth anniversary of the Sept. 11 terror attacks, had footage of al-Zawahri and a man the video identified as Adam Yehiye Gadahn, an American who the FBI believes attended Al Qaeda training camps in Pakistan and served as an Al Qaeda translator.

Gadahn and al-Zawahri did not appear together in the footage but were each featured on a split screen. Both wore white turbans and robes. It was the second time Gadahn has appeared in the same video with al-Zawahri. In a July 7 video marking the one-year anniversary of bombings against the London transit system, Gadahn said no Muslim should "shed tears" for Westerners killed by Al Qaeda attacks.

"To the American people and the people of the West in general ... God sent his Prophet Muhammad with guidance and the religion of truth ... and sent him as a herald," al-Zawahri said in an introduction to Saturday's video.

Gadahn (bottom, 2nd from L) is wanted by the FBI for threats (he's a former Christian fundie from So Cal.)

1. Not the first time he's done a tape. He's a fat little shit who
for the first time in his miserable life, is the CENTER OF ATTENTION. Gee, wouldn't it be great if he didn't have to live in a hellhole with a bunch of unshaven, unwashed bastards!

It thrills him, no doubt, to be regarded as "special."

Makes up for the fact that he couldn't get a prom date....

6. Sometimes you can just tell, ya know?
I don't know if it's decades of supervising young kids, many straight out of high school, or what, but you get to the point where you can spot a dork at fifty paces.

He's a dork.
