Al Qaeda Calls For Death Of U.S. SEAL | weasel zippers

 

From CBS News:

Al Qaeda has wasted no time in calling for the death of the former Navy SEAL who has written a book under a pseudonym which his publisher Dutton calls a first person account of the death of Osama bin Laden.

A jihadist forum, al-Fidaa, located in Malaysia, posted the death calls and provided the author’s name and photograph under a headline titled “First Image of One of the Dogs who killed Bin Laden.” Dogs are considered unclean in Islam.

Al-Fidaa, which is also used by al Qaeda to recruit suicide bombers, posted comments by one member, Abu (son of, in Arabic) Dujanah al-Kinani, warning that the “lion’s cubs,” the mujahedeen (holy warriors), are now waiting for the right time to avenge bin laden’s death. Usama means “lion” in Arabic. Ayman al-Zawahiri, the new leader of al-Qaeda has called bin Laden, “the lion of Islam.” Jihadi online forums sometimes refer to Bin Laden as the “Lion of the Holy Jihad.”
