¶ Ayyan Quote / Intro
I read Bin Laden, they're not saying that they're acting the way that they acted because bombs are dropped on them if they were saying. It's because of American foreign policy. It's because of the bomb. Said, I would be the first one in line to say. Well, it's very easy because we stop bombing. They stop attacking us and they stop oppressing their people, but it's much, much more complex than that. And it's also much much older than that. Okay, that's just not true. Okay.
Anyone anyone? I will give you, it's, let's let anyone get together anyone to tell Qaeda together anymore. That's Sing welcome to the libertarian Institute in Keith Knight. Don't try it on.

They obey was claiming that we envied their lifestyle when the truth, which this Pharaoh would like to hide is that we are attacking them because of their Injustice, toward the Muslim world, and especially Palestine, and Iraq, as well as their occupation of the land of the to

¶ Why We are Fighting You
leader, edited and translated by Raymond. Ibrahim. Here is Osama Bin Laden's. Why we are fighting you letter to the Americans Bin Laden begins, while seeking Allah's, help. We form our reply. Based on two. Questions directed at the Americans won. Why are we fighting in opposing? You too? What are we calling? You too? And what do we want from you as for the first question? Why are we fighting an opposing you?
The answer is very simple because you attacked us and continue to attack us. A you attacked us in Palestine one Palestine which has sunk under military occupation for more than 80 years. The British handed over Palestine with your help and your support to the Jews who have occupied it for more than 50 years years. Overflowing with oppression. Tyranny crimes murders. Expulsion destruction and Devastation, the creation and continuation of Israel is one of the greatest crimes and you are
the leaders of its criminals. And of course, there was no need to explain and prove the degree of American support for Israel. The creation of Israel is a crime that must be erased each and every person whose hands have become polluted in the contribution toward this crime, must pay its price and pay for it heavily. Bin Laden continues later. Point number three, the blood pouring out of Palestine must be equally Avenged. You must know that the
Palestinians do not cry alone. Their women are not widowed alone. Their sons are not orphaned alone. Be You attacked us in Somalia. You supported the Russian atrocities against us, in chechnya. The Indian oppression against us in Kashmir and the Jewish aggression against us in Lebanon under your supervision consent and orders. Governments of our countries which act as your agents attack
us on a daily basis. One, these governments prevent our people from establishing Sharia law, using violence and lies to do. So to these governments give us a taste of humiliation placing us in a large prison of fear and submission, three. These governments steal, our Islamic Pumas wealth, and sell them to you at a paltry price for these governments have surrendered to the Jews and
handed them. Most of Palestine acknowledging the existence of their state, over the dismembered limbs of their own people section, e your forces, occupy our countries, you spread your military bases throughout them, you corrupt, our lands and you besiege, our sanctuaries to protect the security of the Jews and to ensure the continuity of your pillage of our Treasures section. F. You have starved, the Muslims of Iraq, where children die every Day more than 1.5 million.
Iraqi children have died as a result of your sanctions and you amazingly did not show concern yet. When 3000 of your people died. The entire world jumped up and has not yet. Sat down section g. You have supported the Jews and their idea that Jerusalem is their Eternal capital and agreed to move your Embassy. There section to these tragedies and calamities are only a few examples of your oppression and aggression against us. It is commanded by our religion and intellect that the oppressed
have a right to return. The aggression. Do not expect anything from us, except Jihad resistance and revenge. Is it in any way rational to accept that after America has attacked us for more than half a
century. We will then leave her to live in security and peace in a later section of the same letter bin Laden. His justification for targeting civilians or what governments, often call collateral damage, section B. The American people are the ones who pay the taxes, that fund the planes that bomb Us in Afghanistan, the tanks that strike and destroy our homes and Palestine. The armies that occupy, our lands and the Arabian Gulf and the fleet's that ensure the
blockade of Iraq. These tax dollars are given to Israel for it to continue to attack us and penetrate our Hands, so the American people are the ones who fund the attacks against us and they are the ones who oversee the expenditure of these monies in the way that they wish through their elected candidates section D. The American people are the ones who employ both their men and their women in the American forces that attack Us section, 8 e. This is why the American people
are not innocent in the innumerable crimes, committed by the Americans and Jews against us. F Allah, most high legislated the permission and option to take revenge. Thus, if we are attacked, we have the right to attack back. Whoever has destroyed our Villages and towns. We have the right to destroy their Villages and towns. Whoever has stolen our wealth. We have the right to destroy their economy. And whoever has Guild our civilians.
We have the right to kill. There's section f, as for the war criminals, whom you censure and form Criminal Courts for For you, then, shamelessly. Ask that your own are granted immunity. However, history will not forget the war crimes that you committed against the Muslims and the rest of the world. Those you have killed in Japan, Afghanistan. Somalia, Lebanon, and Iraq will remain a shame that you will never be able to escape.
It will suffice to remind you of your latest war crimes in Afghanistan in which densely populated innocent. Civilian Villages were destroyed bombs were dropped on mosques causing the roof of Mosque to come crashing down on the heads of muslims praying inside. You are the ones who broke the
agreement with the mujahideen. When they left kunduz bombing them in jangi Fort, and killing more than 1,000 of your prisoners through Suffocation. And thirst, Allah alone knows how many people have died by torture at your hands and those of your agents your planes remain in the Afghans guys, looking for anyone remotely suspicious section for.
We also advise you to Stop supporting Israel, and to end your support for the Indians and Kashmir the Russian agents against the chechens and also see supporting the Manila government against the Muslims in southern Philippines. If the Americans refuse to listen to Our advice and the goodness guidance and righteousness that we call them to then be where you will lose this Crusade Bush began.
Just like the other previous Crusades in which you were humiliated by the hands of the mujahideen. Fling. To your home in great silence and disgrace. If the Americans do not respond. Then their fate will be that of the Soviets who fled from Afghanistan to deal with their military defeat political breakup, ideological downfall and economic bankruptcy.
¶ World Islamic Statement Urging Jihad Against Jews and Crusaders
Next. We have Osama Bin Laden's World Islamic front statement, urging Jihad against Jews and Crusaders today. There was abundant proof of three indisputable facts. Acts on which all just men, agree. We will mention these facts for those who can hear, whether it kills them, or allows them to live. They are first for over seven years. The United States has been occupying, the most sacred of Islamic lands.
The Arabian. Peninsula plundering its riches dictating to its rulers, humiliating its people terrorizing its neighbors and turning its basis in the peninsula into a spearhead with which to fight the neighboring Muslim peoples. May have contested this
assertion in the past. But today, all the peninsula's inhabitants acknowledge it. The best proof of this is the Americans continuing aggression against the Iraqi people using the peninsula as a launching pad, even though all its rulers are against their territories being used to that end, but are nevertheless helpless to prevent it s despite the great Devastation inflicted on the Iraqi people by the Crusaders on. Ernest Alliance. And despite the huge number of those killed which is
approaching a million. The Americans are once again, trying to repeat the horrific massacres as though they are not content with the protracted blockade, imposed after the Ferocious war or the fragmentation and Devastation here. They come to annihilate. What is left of this people and to humiliate their Muslim?
Neighbors third. If the war aims of the Americans are religious and economic, they also have the Effect of serving the Jews, Petty State, and diverting attention from its occupation of Jerusalem and murderer of Muslims there. Nothing shows this more clearly than their eagerness to destroy Iraq, the strongest Arab state in the region and their attempts to fragment all the states of the region such as Iraq.
Saudi Arabia, Egypt, and Sudan into paper statelets, whose disunity and weakness, guarantees Israel's survival, and it's the brutal Crusader occupation of the peninsula, killing the Americans, and their allies civilians and Military is an individual Duty for every Muslim who can carry it. Out in any country where it proves possible in order to liberate all osca mosque and the holy Sanctuary Mecca from their
grip. And to the point that their armies leave all Muslim territory defeated and unable to threaten any Muslim. This is in accordance with the words of God almighty. Fight the pagans all together as they fight you all together and fight them until there is no more to Malta or oppression and Justice and faith in God Prevail. Next.
¶ Declaration of Jihad Against the Americans Occupying the Land of the Two Holy Sanctuaries
We have been Laden's August 1996 Declaration of jihad against the Americans occupying, the land of the two. Holy sanctuaries. Their blood is flowing in Palestine, Iraq and Lebanon the awful images of the No, Massacre are still present in everyone's mind. Not to mention the massacres in Tajikistan. Burma Kashmir, Assam the Philippines. Pathani. Oh God, in Somalia, Eritrea chechnya and Bosnia-Herzegovina. Where Muslims have been the victims of atrocious, acts of Butchery.
The most recent Calamity to have struck Muslims is the occupation of the land of the to sanctuaries, The Hearth of the Abode of Islam. The Cradle of Prophecy since the death of the prophet and source of divine message, the site of the Holy Kaba to which all Muslims, pray, and who was occupying it, the armies of the American Christians and their allies. There is no power or strength, save in God. When duties, accumulate it is necessary to begin with the most important one to push back.
This enemy The Americans who are occupying our territory. The Youth hold you responsible for all the killings and evictions of Muslims and the violation of the sanctuaries carried out by your Zionist Brothers. In Lebanon. You openly supplied them with arms and finance more than six hundred thousand. Iraqi children have died due to lack of food and medicine. And as a result of the unjustifiable aggression, imposed on a rock and its people, the children of Iraq are
our children. You the u.s. Together. The Saudi regime are responsible for the shedding of the blood of these innocent children. Due to all of that. Whatever treaty you have with our country is now null and void. It is Duty. Now on every tribe in the Arabian, Peninsula to fight Jihad in the cause of God and to cleanse the land. From those occupiers. Bin Laden goes on to say, in 1304. Aah 1936, the awakened Muslim nation of Palestine.
And started their great struggle Jihad against the British occupying forces. He ends by saying, terrorizing you while you are carrying arms on, our land is a legitimate and morally demanded Duty. Next.
¶ Message to the American People
We have been Laden's message to the American people from Al Qaeda in its own words. American people. My speech to you, is about the best way of avoiding a Repeat Performance of Manhattan as well as the causes and consequences. Sequences of the war by way of introduction. Let me say that security is an indispensable pillar of human life and that free men do not forfeit their security, contrary to bushes claim that we hate Freedom.
If that were true, let him explain to us why we do not attack Sweden. For example, Freedom haters, do not possess defiant Spirit. Like those of the 19. May God have mercy on them. No, we fight because we are free men who do not Slumber under oppression. We want to restore freedom to our nation and just as you lay waste to our nation. So shall we? Lay waste to yours. Only a witless wrongdoer plays with the security of others and then fools himself into thinking. He will be secure.
Whereas rational people, when disaster strikes make it their priority to look for its causes God knows we never would have thought of striking. The towers had, we not seen such Terror knee and oppression from the american-israeli alliance against our people in Palestine. And Lebanon, only when we could take no more, did we think of it?
The events that affected me personally began in 1982 when America gave the Israelis, the green light to invade Lebanon and the American 6th Fleet help them. When the bombardment began, many were killed and injured and others were terrorized and displaced. I cannot forget those unbearable scenes of blood and severed, limbs the corpses of women and children strewn everywhere houses destroyed along with their Pants and high rise buildings. Burying their residents Rockets
raining down on our land. Without Mercy, it was as if a crocodile had seized a helpless child, who could do nothing, but scream, tell me. Does the crocodile understand any language? Other than that of force, the whole world watch this tragedy and did nothing in those difficult moments, many thoughts, that are difficult to describe boiled up within me. They produced an intense rejection of tyranny and a Strong resolve to punish the
oppressors. And as I looked at those demolish buildings in Lebanon, it entered my mind that we should punish the oppressor and kind and destroy the towers of America so that they could experience some of what we had experienced. And so they would stop killing our women and children. And that day, I realized that killing innocent women and children is a deliberate American policy. State terrorism is called freedom and democracy. While resistance is Terrorism
and intolerance. This means that millions of people must suffer oppression, and embargo until death results as inflicted by Bush, senior and Iraq in the greatest Mass Slaughter of children ever. It means millions of children are subjected to mass bombardments because bush. Wanted to overthrow a former Ally and replace him with a new puppet to assist in the theft of Iraq soil and other crimes. The events of September 11th unfolded against this
background. As a response to these grave injustices, can one blame a man who was only defending himself is defending oneself and punishing an aggressor in kind terrorism. If that is the case, then we had no choice. This is the message I saw to communicate to you in word and indeed repeatedly for years before September 11th. You can read it if you like in my interview with Scott in Time magazine in 1996 or with Peter Arnett on CNN or with John Miller in 1998.
You can see it in practice if you wish in Kenya and Tanzania and Aden and you can read my interviews with Abdul Bari at one as well as my interviews with Robert Fisk. The latter is one of your compatriots and co-religionists and I consider him. To be neutral, did the alleged Defenders of Freedom at the White House and the channels controlled by them bother to speak with these people so that they could tell the American people, the reasons for our
fight against you. If you avoid these causes, you'll be on the right path to enjoy the security that you had before September 11th so much for the war and its causes. As for its results. They have been Thanks to almighty God extremely positive and indeed.
Beyond all expectations. This is owing to many factors Chief among them that we have found it easy to deal with the Bush Administration because it is just like the regimes in our country's half of which are ruled by the military and the other half by the sons of kings and presidents. We know them. Well, both characterized by Pride arrogance, greed and misappropriation of wealth.
In fact, the White House policy of doing everything possible to start Wars on new fronts to keep a various corporations busy. Whether in the field of arms or oil or reconstruction, helped Al Qaeda achieve these tremendous results as some analysts, and diplomats have pointed out. The White House seems to be playing on our team. And the goal is to score against
the United States economy. Even if our intentions differ, it is in your own hands and any state that does not violate our security has automatically guaranteed, its own God, is our guardian and helper. While you have none, peace be The one who follows the way next I have excerpts from Bin
¶ Interview with Tayseer Allouni
Laden's, October 21st, 2001 interview with Ty, crio leaning, the Al Jazeera correspondent in Kabul Afghanistan as to its description that these acts were terroristic. Then that description is wrong. These young men whom God has cleared the way for they have shifted the battle to the heart of the United States. And they have destroyed, its most outstanding landmarks their economic.
Landmarks and their military landmarks with the grace of God and they have done this from what we understand and we have incited and roused for this before and it is in self-defense in defense of our brothers and Sons in Palestine and for freeing our holy sites and if inciting for this is Terrorism and if killing the ones that kill our sons is Terrorism, then let history witness that we are terrorists, it became a total
mockery. And that clearly appeared when the US government interfered and banned, the media Outlets from airing our words, which don't exceed a few minutes because they felt that the truth had started to appear to the American people and that we truly aren't terrorists by the definition they want. But because we are being violated in Palestine, and Iraq, and Lebanon in Sudan, and Somalia in Kashmir in the Philippines. And in every place, this is a reaction from The Young.
Men of this Islamic Nation against the violations, by the American government. Bin Laden says later in the interview. I say that with no doubt. Jihad is mandatory on all Muslims to free the Alaska, mosque or to save the week in Palestine and in Lebanon and in Iraq and in all Islamic lands, and there was no doubt that freeing the Arabian Peninsula from the polytheists is also mandatory on all Muslims the interview. Asks, what about the killing of innocent civilians?
Bin, Laden response, killing innocent, civilians, like Americans and other educated people say, it's something very strange to say, I mean, who was the one that said, our children and our civilians are not innocence and that their blood is permissible. In the case. We kill their civilians. The whole world yells at us from east to west and America starts pushing its allies and puppets. Who was the one that said, our blood is in blood and that their
blood is blood? Who was the one that declared this? What about the people that have been killed in our lands for decades more than a million children? Died in Iraq and are still dying. So why don't we hear people cry or protest? Or anyone who reassures or anyone who gives condolences the interviewer asks, so you say that this is treatment with the same action they can Our innocent. So we kill there's Bin Laden response. Yes, so we kill their innocence
and that is valid. Both religiously and logically because some of the people who talk about this issue some talk about it from a religious point of view. Individuals should stand for God and rethink and redo their calculations. We treat others like they treat us, Those Who Kill our women and our innocent. We kill their women and innocent until they stopped from doing. So America and Israel, practice ill-advised terrorism.
And we practice terrorism. That is a good deed, which deters, those from killing our children, in Palestine, and other places. We swore that America will never dream of safety until safety. Becomes a reality for us and Palestine that has exposed the American government and that it lives as an agent of Israel. And it puts Israel's needs on top of the needs of its own people.
So the cases Easy America won't be able to leave this ordeal unless it leaves the Arabian Peninsula and it stops its involvement in Palestine. And in all the Islamic World May
¶ Interview with John Miller of ABC
28. 1998, Osama. Bin, Laden was interviewed by Abc's, John Miller. He was asked. What is the meaning of your call for Muslims to take arms against America in particular? And what is the message that you wish to send to the West in general Bin Laden responded?
And the call to wage war against America was made because America has spearheaded the Crusade against the Islamic Nation sending tens of thousands of its troops to the land of the two sacred mosques over and above its meddling in Affairs. And it's politics and its support of the oppressive, corrupt and tyrannical regime, that is in control. These are the reasons behind the singling out of America. As a Target. He goes on to say, America heads the list of aggressors against Muslims, though.
Recurrence of aggression. Against Muslims, everywhere is proof enough for over half a century Muslims in Palestine have been slaughtered and assaulted and robbed of their honor and of their property, October 7, 2001, a warning to

It was a debatable issue, but when a dozen of their people were killed in Nairobi and Dar es Salaam Afghanistan and Iraq were bombed hypocrisy stood in force behind the head of the world's infidelity behind the who ball of the age namely America and its supporters to the United States. I have only these few words I swear by almighty God who has raised the heavens without pillars. That Of the United States nor he will live in the United States

¶ Interview with CNN
Laden's interview with CNN from al-Qaeda. In its own words. The interviewer asks. Mr. Bin Laden. Could you give us your main criticism of the Saudi royal family? That is ruling Saudi Arabia. Today Bin Laden response regarding the criticisms of the ruling regime in Saudi Arabia
and the Arabian peninsula. The first one is there subordination to the US. So our main problem is the US government while the Saudi regime is but a branch or an agent of the US. The interviewer asks, if you had an opportunity to give a message to President Clinton, what would that message? Be Bin Laden response mentioning the name Clinton or that of the American government provokes
discussed and revulsion. This is because the name of the American moment and the names of Clinton and Bush directly bring to our minds the pictures of one year old children with their heads, cut off. It reflects the picture of children whose members have been amputated, the picture of the children who died in Iraq. The hands of the Israelis carrying weapons that destroy our children. The hearts of Muslims are filled with hatred because he does not
understand them. If there is a message that I may send through you then. It is a message. I addressed to the mothers of the American troops who came here willingly in their military uniforms and to walk proudly up and down our land, while the religious Scholars of our own country are thrown in prison. I say that this represents a blatant provocation to 1 billion. Two hundred and fifty thousand Muslims to these mothers.
I say, if they are concerned for their sons, then let them object to the American government's policy and to the American people. President in an interview with

And eventually, says our goal, they are for is to free the Land of Islam, from unbelief and to

¶ Speech Against the Crusaders and the U.N.
Yours Ben Laden's, 2001 speech against the Crusaders, and the United Nations, following World War one, which ended more than 83 years ago, the whole Islamic World fell under the Crusader Banner under the British French and Italian government's. They divided the whole world and Palestine was occupied by the British since then and for more than 83 years. Our brothers sons and sisters in Palestine have been badly tortured. Hundreds of thousands of them
have been killed. And hundreds of thousands of them have been imprisoned or maimed in Somalia with the excuse of restoring. Hope 13,000 of our brothers were killed in southern Sudan. Hundreds of thousands were killed. But when we move to Palestine and Iraq, there are no limits as to what can be said. Over 1 million children have been killed in Iraq, and the killing is continuing. What is taking place?

¶ Interview with Hamid Mir
here are two excerpts from Osama Bin Laden's interview, in 2001 with Hamid Mir, a Pakistani journalist. Bin Laden. Says America, and its allies are massacring us in Palestine. Chechnya Kashmir, and Iraq. The Muslims have the right to attack America in reprisal. The interviewer asks, can it be said that? You are against the American government. Not the American people Bin Laden response.
Yes. We are carrying on the mission of our Prophet Muhammad. The mission is to spread the word of God. Not to indulge in massacring people. We ourselves are the target of killings destruction and atrocities. We are only defending ourselves. This is defensive Jihad. We want to defend our people and our land. That is why I say that if we don't get security, the Americans, too. Will not get security. This is a simple formula that even an American child can
understand. This is the formula of Live and Let Live. Tell me. If Indian forces invaded, Pakistan, what would you do? The Israeli forces, occupy our land and the American troops are on our territory. We have no other option but to launch Jihad here is a message known as the gaunt tape.
¶ The Gaunt Tape
Published, December 26, 2001. On Al Jazeera by Osama Bin Laden, what happened in Palestine? And what is happening there today. In terms of the deliberate murder of children is very ugly, the highest degree of Injustice and aggression threatens all of humanity. However, America is pressing ahead with its Injustice, by supporting the unjust ones and aggressors against our people, in Palestine.
The United States is practicing a detestable terrorism in its ugliest form in Palestine. And Iraq Bush. The father. The ill-famed man was the reason behind the killing of over 1 million children in Iraq. In addition to men and women, what happened on September 11th is nothing but a reaction to the continuing Injustice. Being done to our children in Palestine, Iraq, Somalia, southern Sudan and elsewhere as well as Kashmir and Asia.
These blessed and successful strikes were reactions to What has happened in our land in Palestine, Iraq, and elsewhere? Terrorism against the United States is commendable because it is a response to Injustice aimed at forcing the United States to stop at support of Israel, which kills our people, the issue is very clear. Cannot you be reasonable America, and the Western leaders have repeatedly said that Hamas and Islamic Jihad in Palestine and other warring organizations
are terrorist organizations. If self-defense is Terrorism. What Then legitimate. And Islamic nation of 1200 million. Muslims, is being butchered from east to west every day in Palestine, Iraq and Somalia. In southern Sudan, in Kashmir in the Philippines, in Bosnia, and chechnya and in Assam, and we do not hear anything from them. But if the victim and a press rise to sacrifice their souls for their religion, then we hear their voices.
¶ On Saudi Clerics and the Meaning of Jihad
Here are excerpts from July of 2003. Bin Laden's on, Saudi clerics. And the meaning of jihad a fundamental and realistic fact, is that the land of the two sacred mosques is occupied. And if it is occupied by the US military, the greatest commandment after Faith itself, is to repeal the aggressive enemy. They're the rulers of Saudi Arabia statements attest to their situation in an interview with some World Press.

This people are busy with all sorts of other rituals. We must focus on making the

Which religion considers your killed one's innocent and our killed one's worthless. And Which principle considers your blood? Real blood and our blood water reciprocal, treatment is fair and the one who starts Injustice Bears greater blame. Bin Laden goes on to say, stop
shedding our blood. So as for preserve your blood, it is in your hands to apply this easy yet difficult formula. When referring to Bush Bin Laden calls him, the liar in the white house or referring to. Um, he says he also would not have lied to people and said that, we hate freedom and kill for the sake of killing reality, proves our truthfulness and his lie, the killing of the Russians was after their invasion of
Afghanistan and chechnya.

They do not deserve to be secure anywhere in the world as for their presence in Saudi Arabia or rather in all of the Arabian Peninsula. It is prohibited by Islamic law, January, 19 2006, Al Jazeera,
¶ Offers to Accept a Truce
broadcast. Bin Laden's mess. Offers to accept a truce Bin Laden. Says, if you Americans are sincere in your desire for peace and security, we have answered you. If Bush decides to continue with his lies and oppression, it would be useful for you to read the book, the Rogue State, the introduction of which states. If I were president, I would alter the attacks against the United States first, I would apologize to all the widows and orphans and those who were
tortured. Then I would announce that us. Appearance in the nations of the world has ended forever. As for us. We have nothing to lose. He who swims in the sea does not fear the rain. You have occupied our land. Defiled, our honor violated our dignity spilled our blood, stolen our wealth, destroyed our homes and shattered our security. We will treat you in the same way.
For 10 years. We patiently fought the Soviet Union with our few weapons and we Pleaded their economy till they became history with God's help. You should take a lesson from that.
¶ Speech to the Muslim Nation on the Zionist Crusader War Against Islam
Here is Bin Laden's, April 2006 speech to the Muslim Nation on the Zionist, Crusader war against Islam among the greatest of the issues, which clearly demonstrates. These Concepts is Palestine. What oppression assault and
hatred. Could be more blatant than the Zionist Crusader Alliance deciding to hand over Palestine to the Jews for it. To be their state after carrying out, massacres, they are and displacing many of its people, then bringing the Jews from various countries to settle them in Palestine, this aggression, and oppression have continued
for more than nine decades. And continue to this very day, all attempts to regain our rights to demand Justice, and take revenge on the Israeli. Oppressor have been thwarted by the leadership of the Zionist Crusader Alliance by using. What is called the right of veto going.
¶ Letter to King Fhad
Back to 1995. We have Bin Laden's letter to Saudi king fahd, the heart of the matter is that these bases were not constructed for the Saudi Army, but to be used by the American and Western forces already stationed. In many of them. The presence of a foreign power on Holy Land is not to defend the country against the already destroyed and starve nation of Iraq, when all the facts and
observations suggest. Otherwise the truth is that a foreign power is there to protect your Roan from the inevitable and growing threat of Islam. The country is experiencing a blessed Islamic Awakening that is on the rise in many military and civilian sectors in the country causing you a great deal of concern. The country's Army has a duty to protect the entire Muslim population and to defend their interests everywhere. Let alone to defend the Holy Land.
Therefore, there is no justification for keeping the national Army in a state of weakness that hinders its enormous. Possibility, it is unconscionable to let the country become an American colony with American soldiers, with their filthy feet roaming everywhere for no reason other than protecting your throne and oil sources for their own. Use those filthy Infidel Crusaders must not be allowed to remain in the Holy Land.
¶ Cutting the Fuse (emperical evidence of suicide terrorism)
Looking at Empirical research regarding suicide, terrorism, Robert a pape and James K, Feldman wrote, a book titled, cutting the fuse, the Splosion of global suicide terrorism and how to stop it on page 8, they described the book as the first complete data set of all suicide terrorist attacks around the world. From 1980 to 2009.
They are research concludes with nearly all emerged from communities, resisting foreign military occupation from the introduction from 1980 to 2003. There were 345 completed suicide, terrorist attacks by 22 and 24 suicide terrorists, who actually killed themselves on a mission to kill others.
Half of whom are secular. The world leader was the Tamil Tigers, a secular Hindu group who carried out more attacks than Hamas or Palestinian Islamic Jihad pij during this period further at least a third of the suicide attacks in predominantly Muslim countries, were carried out by secular terrorist groups, such as the car. Dastan Workers Party pkk in Turkey.
Instead of religion, what over 95% of all suicide terrorist attacks before 2004 had in common was a strategic, goal to compel a democratic state to withdraw combat forces that are threatening territory. That the terrorists prize from Lebanon to Sri Lanka to the West Bank, to chechnya the central goal of every suicide terrorists. Has been to resist military occupation by a democracy. The authors go on to summarize their findings. Number one, strong confirmation for the hypothesis.
That military. Occupation is the main factor. Driving suicide terrorism. The stationing of foreign combat forces ground and Tactical Air. Force units on territory that terrorists prize accounts for 87% of the over 1800 suicide terrorist attack. Has around the world since 2004 number two. Strong evidence for new hypotheses about the causes of transnational suicide, terrorism
dying to win. Robert papes previous book explained that nationalism the desire to perpetuate, the local political religious and social institutions of a community independent of foreign. Interference is the Taproot explanation for why individuals from a community facing foreign. Occupation would undertake costly measures to defend it including in extremists suicide terrorism.
It was the Hindu avowedly anti-religious Liberation Tigers of Tamil eelam ltte in Sri Lanka who's 157 suicide terrorists totaled more than Hamas and all other Palestinian suicide groups. Combined of the Palestinian suicide terrorists more than a third or from Secular groups such as Alaska, Martyrs Brigade and popular front for the liberation of Palestine pflp of the suicide terrorists associated with Hezbollah in Lebanon.
During the 1980s only 21% or Islamic fundamentalist, while 71% or Communists and socialists 8% or Christians in Turkey, 100% of the pkk is suicide. Attackers for secular overall. Islamic fundamentalism can not account for over half of the known.

Kashmiri Rebels, 69, Hamas, 34 Palestinian, Islamic Jihad, and
236, from secular groups. 45% comprising 157 to male tigers 42i, laska 22 Lebanese 15. Pkk. While 12 21% had unknown, ideological affiliations the author's then quote three of the alleged Saudi hijackers. First Abul al-jarrah. Alga. Midi. What is happening in Muslim countries today? Blatant. Occupation about which there was no doubt. There was no Duty or obligatory after faith. To repel him, S Abu musab Waleed, Al shehri, the
occupation and deterioration. In the land of the to sanctuaries is a plot by the Jew and the nazarenes foremost. Among them America. May Allah destroy it, which has been among the chief causes of every Misfortune suffered by Islam and the Muslims, thus repelling the Americans occupying. The land of the to sanctuaries is the most obligatory of obligations, finally. Hamza Al ghamdi and I say to America, if it wants its armies and people to be safe than it must withdraw.

The author's finished the introduction saying further. Notice that there are no suicide attackers from Iran. One of the largest Islamic fundamentalist populations in the world with a population greater than Iraq Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Jordan and Syria combined to reiterate miss her
¶ Final thoughts
see Ali's claims. She said, I read Bin Laden, they're not saying they're acting the way that they're acting because bombs are being dropped on them. If they were saying, it's because of American foreign policy. It's because of the bombs, I'd be the first one in line to say. Well, it's very easy. We stop. Bombing, they stop attacking us and they stop oppressing. Their people. This is a fact, let's read Bin Laden together.
Let's read Al Qaeda together. So now that we've done that, and empirically, proved that it is more about American foreign policy than it is about Islam. I would ask that, Miss hirsi Ali. Retract the statement. I'd like to close with a quote from Peter Joseph. He says to be proven wrong, should be celebrated for it is elevating someone to a new level of understanding furthering awareness. Thank you for watching Keith. Mike. Don't tread on anyone in the libertarian Institute.
