Terrorist who has nothing to do with Islam calls on Muslims to make Iraq "fortress of Islam"

That zebibah has nothing to do with Islam, you Islamophobe

Here's Robert Spencer's take on Zawahri's latest audio message. When will the West wake up to the reality that there are millions of Muslims working to dominate all of humanity.

Terrorist who has nothing to do with Islam calls on Muslims to make Iraq "fortress of Islam"

In a happy coincidence, Zawahri's latest is sixteen minutes long -- roughly the same length as Geert Wilders's Fitna. And in it, he links Islam with terrorism by equating Islam's fortunes with those of Al-Qaeda in Iraq. Yet the 57 Muslim governments of the Organization of the Islamic Conference, as angry as they are about Fitna, are likely to say nothing at all about this Zawahri audiotape. The EU, which has just strongly denounced -- in the wake of Fitna -- any attempt to link Islam with terrorism, is likely to say nothing at all about this.
And what's even more unconscionable, in light of our need to understand the threat in order to defend ourselves against it, is the fact that although Muslims like Zawahri link Islam with terrorism on a daily basis, the outrage is always reserved -- among non-Muslims as well as Muslims -- for the non-Muslims like Wilders who point this out, not for the Muslims who actually make the link.
"Zawahiri calls on Muslims to make Iraq 'fortress of Islam,'" from AFP:
WASHINGTON (AFP) — Al-Qaeda number two Ayman al-Zawahiri said that building Iraq as a "fortress of Islam" is the "most important duty" for Muslims, in an audio message released Thursday according to the SITE monitoring service.
In a nearly 16 minute audio file posted on jihadist Internet forums marking the fifth anniversary of the US-led invasion of Iraq, Zawahiri, known as Al-Qaeda's ideological thinker, called on Muslims to fight for creating a greater Muslim state.
"We will only get our rights back with our own hands and not through beggary or fraudulent elections," he said, according to SITE's summary.
Zawahiri's talk, titled "Five years after the Invasion of Iraq and Decades of Injustice by the Tyrants," contains references to US Iraqi commander General David Petraeus's April 8 testimony to the US Congress, and to a textile worker strike in Egypt on April 6 as evidence that it was a recent recording, according to SITE.
The monitoring service said he called on Muslims to make Iraq a "fortress of Islam" and, underscoring the Sunni Muslim orientation of Al-Qaeda, he referred to a plot against Iraq by the United States together with Shiite Iran, which he said would lead to the Mideast region exploding. [...]
"The United Nations is an enemy of Islam and Muslims: it is the one which codified and legitimized the setting up of the state of Israel and its taking over of the Muslims' lands," Zawahiri said in that recorded talk.

Zawahri apparently doesn't realize what a great friend his cause has in the UN.
