Batarfi presents all the troubles that the U.S. is experiencing as punishment from Allah. Anyone can play that game: the setbacks of al-Qaeda itself, from the killing of bin Laden to the steady diminishment of the once-fearsome international threat it presented, could be interpreted as Allah’s negative view of the group. But when one believes that Allah has promised ultimate victory and has all things in hand down to the minutest detail, one doesn’t give up in the face of setbacks. That’s why this is a 1,400-year-long war, and counting.
“Al-Qaeda and ISIS Use ‘Great’ Capitol Attack to Inspire Operatives, Incite Violence,” by Bridget Johnson, Homeland Security Today, February 23, 2021:
…Two weeks ago, al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula’s al-Malahem Media released a 20-minute video, “America and the Painful Seizure,” that started with two minutes of footage from the attack on the Capitol – starting with the shooting of Ashli Babbitt by Capitol Police as she tried to climb through a door’s shattered window to breach the speaker’s lobby. “Do not be afraid of the night; the dawn is about to loom… the puppets of injustice will fall,” a nasheed intoned as AQAP showed scenes of the Capitol breach, rioters inside the Senate, and attackers searching Capitol offices.
AQAP leader Khalid Batarfi began the video with a dig at America’s toll in the COVID-19 pandemic that “paralyzed the strong” in which “the politicians and doctors were in disagreement and those who claim knowledge failed to tackle it and reduce its risks.”
“So starting with the hurricanes and tornadoes that Allah sends to them, which destroy houses and displace many people from their lands, in addition Allah the exalted afflicted her people with diseases and epidemics which are concentrated on them, such as anthrax,” Batarfi continued. “Also Allah afflicted her with economic crises, which paralyzed her and baffled her politicians.” He continued by listing episodes of “torment” against America in the first bombing of the World Trade Center, embassy bombings in Kenya and Tanzania, the USS Cole bombing, and the 9/11 attacks, culminating in U.S. military forces “bleeding in Iraq and Afghanistan, which forced her to negotiate with the Taliban movement.” The terror leader then referenced “the continuing of individual operations in America”; at the end of the video, Naval Air Station Pensacola shooter Mohammed Saeed Alshamrani was memorialized.
Batarfi said that America’s “haughtiness and arrogance” continued and “unjust and tyranny also befell her citizens,” citing social justice issues, economic inequality, unemployment, crime, and suicide and mental health issues. “Today America takes the lion’s share of epidemic corona and comes at the top of the list of the perished, which has reached more than 400,000,” he said, putting the date of the recording after that Jan. 19 milestone.
“We are also witnessing how America’s politicians started to butt one another like bulls, cursing one another, and her miserable people demolishing her pillars, shaking her entity, and cursing the politicians and the masters,” the AQAP leader continued. “The incident of breaking into the Congress is only a little bit of what will happen to them, by permission of Allah. And whoever thinks that this matter will be ceased at this limit or that somebody can stop the overwhelming imminent collapse of America certainly is mistaken and deceived.”…

Whoa! That looks like one scary ass shit! A lover of the religion of peace, perhaps?

To the extent this turkey will prove correct it will be a directly proportional relationship to how successful the Democratic Party of the USA will continue to be. Al-Qaeda and other Islamic terrorist groups are not the major problem. The major problem is the Left, led here in America by the Democratic Party and its chief surrogate, the MSM, aided all the more by a whole host of RINOs and a huge number of teachers who are instructing students not in how to think but what to think. Big Tech is also a culprit where the decimation of liberty is concerned and by now one knows this or should know it.
Conservatism, real conservatism, is the single greatest guarantor of the preservation of liberty here in America. Old-fashion liberalism is almost gone and has morphed into modern liberalism, call it Leftism if you like, and modern liberalism is replete with stupid economic ideas, a great deal of self-loathing, a victim-oriented mentality, a proclivity for out-right lying, a decided tendency to control-freak behavior (e.g., the cancel culture) and a very warped view of America, the single greatest polity in all of human history.
Islam is putrid and an enemy of liberty. I consider this so self-evident after one examines the Islamic texts and the history of Islam that averring otherwise is indicative of either massive ignorance or massive mendacity. But Western Leftism is also putrid and an enemy of liberty, led here in America by the Democratic Party, a political party whose utter destruction would be a boon for America, for the West at large, and for truth and freedom overall.
Just as I despise Islam, so do I despise what the Democratic Party has become. It is no longer the party of FDR, Truman and JFK. Yes, that party is now essentially dead and has been replaced by a political organization that is an enemy of America.
Islam is “small potatoes” compared to Western Leftism. Take it from here.
Westman says
Japan and Germany once thought the US was of no consequence after it experienced the Civil War and was floundering, ununited, in an economic depression. Yet, during 4 years the “sleeping giant” rose to its feet and became able to totally devastate its enemies.
Khalid Batarfi is a poor student of history, as is apparently, Allah(assuming Batarfi speaks for Allah). If we use the history of Islam since WWI as a guide, it would fortell the Ottoman Empire as just the first of physical Islam’s defeat. Khalid Batarfi seems to have forgotten that 9/11 destroyed the sovereignty of two Islamic nations.
There seems no doubt that Islam will continue as a religion, one considered to be domain of the “modernity challenged”, while the physical jihad Islam will be continually beaten down by warfare among its own cults, militants, and warfare with the West.
Sadly, some oil dollars recycle themselves through Al-Qaeda and ISIS, keeping these mercenary armies viable. Our best weapon against these barbarians is to stop buying oil.
I hesitate to write this because the sjw PC monitors won’t like it: Much like the “roaring 1920s” the US has been in a state of hedonism where capable persons are more secure and wealthy compared to the generations of the 1800s and 1930s. Much like the citizens of the 1930s depression, they already have their assumptions about prosperity and peace challenged by the Covid Pandemic. There will be a war at some future time in which the citizens will again rise in unity. If Al-Qaeda and ISIS are mixed up in it, they will perish like the Ottoman Empire.
James Lincoln says
Westman,
I sure hope you’re right about the United States being the sleeping giant whose citizens will rise up in unity – if the play calls for it…
Mark Spahn (West Seneca, NY) says
Hello, Westman. You write, “9/11 destroyed the sovereignty of two Islamic nations.”
Please name them. How are they no longer sovereign?
Westman says
Afghanistan & Iraq and that’s a past tense. The US restored their governments then came the bouts with ISIS. You could call them “sovereign” though that’s stretch since they can’t control their borders.
mortimer says
I agree with almost all that Westman writes here. Khalid Batarfi is a triumphalist and an obscurantist. He has no use for the study of history except as a backdrop for his hate-filled fanaticism. He is hoping to start a jihad.

Good posts, Wellington and Westman.
James Lincoln says
Wellington,
Your post is jampacked with truisms.
You hit a homerun…
Westman says
Agreed!
mortimer says
Wellington raises the point that Islam is currently benefiting from being the ‘side-kick’ of post-modernist Globalism-Leftism allied with BigTech oligarchy. Muslims see their protected status as coming from Allah, rather than seeing it as the whim of Post-Modernists and entirely subservient to their interests and their agenda.
In that way, I agree that Islam is relatively ‘small potatoes’ when compared to the powerhouse of the post-modernist-globalist cabal.
nicholas tesdorf says
Under Biden, for once, Al-Qaeda may be correct.
JOEYN says
Exactly. They worked together with the Islamists and Left within the USA to deceitfully rig the election big-time so that the Left and the Islamists within America can take over America and help them destroy it from within. Really funny that now he is claiming that ‘Allah’ is punishing the USA.
Palladini says
That part about allah sending hurricanes and tornadoes to punish the Americans, I could not laugh any harder. That is one inbred camel fucker talking there that has a grade 4 education at best. The muslims can bring their swords to America, but do not be surprised when you get shoot dead by the guns that are in America. Idiots, All muslims are
Islam is not here to integrate, unlike every other religions who have come to North America, who all got along with each other, muslims do want to integrate, they are here to Dominate us
Islam is NOT a religion, maybe a cult at most, but more of a Political system then a Religion
Since the start of islam, 270 million People have died by at hands of muslims worldwide, it is not a religion of peace.
To back up my facts watch this video and see for yourself – https://youtu.be/t_Qpy0mXg8Y
mortimer says
Palladini is trying to express Islam in Western terms and therefore cannot comprehend it. Islam is comprehensive and inclusive. Islam calls itself a ‘DEEN’ which modern Muslims try to translate as ‘a complete system’. Islam cannot be simply and categorically expressed as Palladini wishes, because ‘Islam’ covers so many separate fields of human behavior. Islam, while an imperial political system, is also a sociological system and a religious system all seamlessly woven into one. It is much more than a mere ‘cult’. Islam is a ‘DEEN’.

Trying to read too much…seeing his name, my brain said, “barfing barfly.” And his photo, pretty much barf- causing material.
Evil will never totally succeed as these moslum scum boast.
One cannot fully know what our Creator will do/or allow before He fully does His Will on earth as He does His will in heaven.
But one thing is certain, islam is a beast from satan the devil, and is, therefore, bound for destruction…completely.
Walter Sieruk says
As much as I strongly dislike keyboarding this message,the harsh reality is that this al Qaeda spokesman just might be when he spoke he spoke of the”imminent collapse of America.” The reason that he might have valid point is because that treacherous subversive corrupt unethical pro- Islamic socialist politician , Joe Biden, now has the position as the Chief Executive of the United States of America.
President pretender Biden is an abomination and affront to the Office of the Presidency. Biden is a catastrophe and calamity for America, a disaster, and a tragedy for the American people.
So much so that it should to be repeated . Which is my former statement that “Since President impostor Biden has now obtain power I’m therefore glad that I’m no longer and I am sorry for the children of this country.”
Walter Sieruk says
It’s also fitting to reiterate since that despicable Biden /Harris term in government power ,their their irrational commitment to the Red/ Green alliance it’s no longer can justly be said “God Bless America” but instead it’s more appropriate to pray “Please God, have mercy on America.”

Al-Qaeda: ‘Whoever thinks that somebody can stop the imminent collapse of America is mistaken’

Another vicious Muslim clown.
Walter Sieruk says
To gravenimage , I really hope that you are right and that I’m wrong.
Nonetheless with that pro-Islamic socialist, Biden sitting in the Oval Office and that Marxist Harris waiting to take over the US Presidency and soon as Biden is officially declared too feeble-minded to continue as the Chief Executive ofthe USA ,I fear that those two ,with their Red/Green alliance mentality might turn America into the large ship called the”Titanic ”
To repeat , I strongly hope that your right in what you keyboarded and the I’m totally wrong on this very important subject.
James Lincoln says
Yes, Walter.
I hope the gravenimage is correct…

He appears to be a cheerleader for the demise of the hearts and minds US leadership. I don’t believe he has thought through what would replace that but it certainly wouldn’t be hugs and kisses. My guess is he would be howling from his hideout for the return of the softies. A part of our country actually voted for a leader who is in a late stage of dementia. Think about that!

The imminent collapse of America. Says the guy crouched down in a closet, through a small crack in the closet door.

Khalid Batarfi appears to be wearing a fishnet pattern keffiyeh, a trademark of the late Yasser Arafat…

The terrorist neck flag.
Westman says
“Today America takes the lion’s share of epidemic corona and comes at the top of the list of the perished, which has reached more than 400,000,” he said, putting the date of the recording after that Jan. 19 milestone.”
Khalid Batarfi is as bad at math as he is at shaving. The trends and outcome are determined by rates, not total numbers.
Covid Death Rates
US – 1.8% falling
Iraq – 1.9% steeply rising.
Iran – 3.7% rising
Afghanistan – 4.3% falling
Egypt – 5.7% flat
Syria – 6.5% rising
Allah is not looking out for Al-Qaeda , ISIS, or Islamic nations. Maybe Covid will get Khalid Batarfi? Ugly fat raises the severity of the disease.

The guy is a moron, but even a moron can be correct sometimes. I dont agree with his reasoning, most of it being so stupid that it doesnt even deserve dissection. (but he knows his audience, and it plays well with those idiots)
But nonetheless, we have passed the crossroads and it does seem that his overall theme (we collapse) is well under way.
mortimer says
Batarfi presents all the troubles that the U.S. is experiencing as punishment from Allah, rather than the confrontation of ideologies such as Globalism, Marxism, Transgenderism, Post-Modernism, Cultural Marxism, Neo-Con Republicans and Populism. These ideas and ideologies also exist in Muslim countries above and below the surface.
