My Pet Jawa’s Dr. Rusty Shackleford
The Hindustan Times says that bloggers including Dr. Rusty Shackleford thwarted Al Qaeda on 9/11.
Hackers prevented Al Qaeda from releasing a videotape to mark the seventh anniversary of 9/11. Al Qaeda has traditionally issued a video or audiotape by either Osama bin Laden or Ayman al Zawahiri, the terror network’s two leaders, to mark their massive terrorist attack on the US.
As-Sahab, Al Qaeda’s media unit, had indicated earlier this week that it would post such a videotape on September 11. As-Sahab had banner images on the internet showing a silhouetted head with a question mark and the words, “Wait 11 September”.
The US-based intelligence group IntelCenter had speculated the video would be a message from Osama or Zawahiri with a recording of the last will and testament of Mohammed Atta, one of the leaders of the 9/11 attackers.
Sources close to US intelligence said, “Hackers knocked out Al Qaeda’s online means of communication, thus preventing them from posting anything to commemorate the anniversary.”
Western intelligence suspects two hackers who have targeted Islamicist sites before were responsible: Aaron Weisburd from Internet Haganah and Rusty Shackleford from the web group My Pet Jawa.
But, Rusty denies it and rightly so. I mean those guys at Al Qaeda do mean business if they ever get out of their holes in Waziristan.
And, even though Flap snapped the photo above of the REAL Rusty Shackleford and photoshopped it, he forgets where the original is - seriously.
Flap would like to see a cage match between Rusty and Adam Gadahn though. But, there are laws, Rusty, in mutilating a corpse.
Oh…………..

Adam Gadahn as featured on the FBI’s Most Wanted List
As 9/11 approaches this Thursday, again rumors are surfacing that the America’s most visible member of Al Qaeda has been killed.
Months of attacks by unmanned US predator aircraft have caused carnage among the middle ranks of terrorist leaders in the lawless lands along the border with Afghanistan, where al-Qa’eda remains dangerous despite suffering a serious defeat in Iraq.
Their victims have included experienced Arab leaders and, it is now thought, Adam Gadahn, a former heavy-metal fan and so-called “killer computer nerd” originally from California. Nothing has been heard from him for months, leading intelligence experts to conclude that he may be dead.
Mr Gadahn has been credited with helping transform al-Qa’eda’s al-Sahab propaganda wing into a slick operation which communicates in fluent English and produces professional quality DVDs, including one for Osama bin Laden last year.
But he may have fallen victim to an expanded programme of predator assassinations which in the last year has targeted and killed many of al-Qa’eda’s military commanders, terrorist trainers and facilitators.
So, who knows?
Perhaps Gadahn will surface like he did in January this year in the video depicted below:
Al Qaeda’s Adam Gadahn Threatens President Bush as Bush visits the Middle East and rips up his American passport, January 6, 2008
Perhaps, Adam Gadahn has QUIT Al Qaeda or been demoted to front line suicide bomber. In any event, Americans will remember his support of Al Qaeda and Osama bin Laden and should he resurface pursue him like the treasonous criminal he is.
Stay tuned……

The Barack Obama quotes:
Obama told reporters that the Republicans have no “standing to suggest that they’ve learned a lot of lessons from 9-11.”
He said they “helped to engineer the distraction of the war in Iraq at a time when we could have pinned down the people who actually committed 9-11.” He said Osama bin Laden is still at large in part because of their failed strategies.
Obama’s view of 9/11, terrorism is RADICAL LEFT, out of the mainstream of opinion and WRONG.

Day by Day by Chris Muir
When the United States Supreme Court begins to subvert the Constitution by making its own law it is time for the people to rise up and control the court.
The awarding “The Privilege of Habeas Corpus To Terrorists” may be the death knell for respect of the court. Justice Scalia in dissent:
America is at war with radical Islamists. The enemy began by killing Americans and American allies abroad: 241 at the Marine barracks in Lebanon, 19 at the Khobar Towers in Dhahran, 224 at our embassies in Dar es Salaam and Nairobi, and 17 on the USS Cole in Yemen. See National Commission on Terrorist Attacks upon the United States, The 9/11 Commission Report, pp. 60–61, 70, 190 (2004). On September 11, 2001, the enemy brought the battle to American soil, killing 2,749 at the Twin Towers in New York City, 184 at the Pentagon in Washington, D. C., and 40 in Pennsylvania. See id., at 552, n. 9. It has threatened further attacks against our homeland; one need only walk about buttressed and barricaded Washington, or board a plane anywhere in the country, to know that the threat is a serious one. Our Armed Forces are now in the field against the enemy, in Afghanistan and Iraq. Last week, 13 of our countrymen in arms were killed.
The game of bait-and-switch that today’s opinion plays upon the Nation’s Commander in Chief will make the war harder on us. It will almost certainly cause more Americans to be killed.
There needs to be fundamental reform of the U.S. Supreme Court, with term limits and age limits. Lifetime tenure for all Federal judges should be changed by amending the Constitution. Why should the judiciary be immune from the “change” in the executive and legislative branch of government?

One of the Mohammed cartoons that sparked riots last year throughout the Muslim world
A car bombing of the Danish Embassy in Islamabad Pakistan is being linked to protests against the Mohammed Cartoons which rocked the world again earlier this year.
A huge car bomb exploded outside the Danish Embassy in the Pakistani capital on Monday, killing at least five people and wounding dozens more, officials and witnesses said.
The blast echoed through Islamabad and left a crater over a meter deep in the road in front of the main gate to the embassy. Glass, fallen masonry and dozens of wrecked vehicles littered the area. People, some bloodied, ran helter-skelter in a state of panic.
There was no immediate claim of responsibility, but al-Qaida No. 2 Ayman al-Zawahri recently called for attacks on Danish targets in response to the publication of caricatures in Danish newspapers depicting the Prophet Muhammad.
A perimeter wall of the embassy collapsed and its metal gate was blown inward but the embassy building itself remained intact.
Officials at two hospitals reported at least five people - including two policemen - were killed and 32 wounded in the blast, none of them foreigners. It was the second targeting of foreigners in the usually tranquil Pakistani capital in less than three months.
The Danish response is here.
Note the car bomb killed native Pakistanis and NO foreigners.
The Danish foreign ministry advised against travel to Pakistan and the Swedish and Norwegian Embassies have closed.
What a shameful act of displaced and unreasoned radicalism of Islam.

One of the Mohammed cartoons that sparked riots last year throughout the Muslim world
Al Qaeda’s Osama bin Laden issued a new video today (actually a graphic and audio recording). In the recording Osama bin Laden addressed the “wise men” of the European Union, slamming the publication of drawings insulting to the Prophet Muhammad and vowing a strong reaction.
The message, which appeared on a militant Web site that has carried al-Qaida statements in the past and bore the logo of the extremist group’s media wing al-Sahab, showed a still image of bin Laden aiming with an AK-47.
A voice believed to be bin Laden’s described the attacks of the Europeans on women and children but said these “paled (in comparison) when you went overboard in your unbelief and freed yourselves of the etiquettes of dispute and fighting and went to the extent of publishing these insulting drawings, this is the greatest misfortune and the most dangerous.”

Today is the fifth anniversary of the Iraq War and bin Laden talks about the Mohammed Cartoons? Remember the cartoon flap originally began when?
September 30, 2005!
How come no video from bin Laden? And, where is Adam Gadahn?
The leader of al Qaeda has become a cheerleader from afar for riots in the Muslim world over cartoons.
Go figure.
Update:
Here is the recording:

Adam Gadahn as featured on the FBI’s Most Wanted List
As US and Pakistani intelligence attempted to determine who else might have been killed in the Jan. 29 US airstrike in North Waziristan that took the life of al Qaeda commander Abu Laith al Libi, a new, unconfirmed report claimed Adam Gadahn, Laith’s American deputy, died in the strike, as did two Kuwaitis and four other terrorists.
Sources inside Pakistan told the Nine/Eleven Finding Answers Foundation that US traitor Adam Gadahn was killed, along with Abu Suhail, Laith’s former deputy; Hamza al Somali, who is presumably of Australian or US nationality; Abu Ubayda Tawari Rakhis al Mutairi, a Kuwaiti national; Abu Adil al Kuwaiti, another Kuwaiti; and at least three Uzbek nationals. “It should be noted that the death of the American Gadahn has not yet been officially confirmed,” the Nine/Eleven Finding Answers Foundation reported.
It is surprising that Al Qaeda has neither produced Gadahn nor martyred him. Perhaps he was severely injured in the January 29th attack and is recovering.
Let’s hope we got the traitor.
