On Islamist Websites: How to Join Al-Qaeda, Form a Jihad Cell, and Select a Western Target

Here we go again.

Some weeks ago, we brought to your attention an American hosted web site that had explicit instructions as to how to kidnap and if required, kill Americans. That web site has since been "removed".

If there remains any doubt as to the threats we as a Nation face, this should be yet another eye-opener:

On August 26, Islamist websites posted an item titled "How to Join Al-Qaeda." It is not clear when the item was written; it was produced by the website Al-Thabitoun 'Ala Al-'Ahd, which is affiliated with Al-Qaeda in Egypt and is currently inactive.

The item calls on every Muslim to regard jihad as a personal duty and to take initiative to establish a jihad cell without waiting for recognition from Al-Qaeda. It goes on to elaborate on how to form and run the cell, how to raise funds, and how to select a target, "for example, assassinating the American ambassador," which, it states, "takes no more than a gun and a bullet."

The following are excerpts from the item:
