Al Qaeda on the ropes? Virtual vs Real

Al Qaeda on the ropes?

Arnaud de Borchgrave
September 28, 2007

Osama bin Laden "is a man on the run, from a cave, who is virtually impotent other than the tapes" he releases from time to time. That was the mid-September assessment of Frances Fragos Townsend, top adviser to President Bush on Homeland Security, terrorism and counterterrorism.

Mrs. Townsend was a former Coast Guard assistant commandant for intelligence and a counsel to the attorney general for intelligence policy. The best and the brightest in the Bush White House, she was deputy national security adviser for combating terrorism before her rise to czar, or czarina, for transnational terrorism.

For a terrorist darting from cave to cave, the world's most wanted terrorist wasn't as impotent as he apparently appeared in top secret e-mails speeding into Mrs. Townsend's computers. The view from cyberspace told a different story about al Qaeda. For bin Laden, it is high noon on the electronic frontier.

As former Central Command chief Gen. John Abizaid said, "Al Qaeda's organizing ability in cyberspace is unprecedented." Cyberpower has emerged as a complex ether power in which digital grass roots are truly global. Al Qaeda's 6,000-plus Web sites supply the ability to liberate and dominate at the same time. Al Qaeda now operates in virtual space with impunity in recruiting, proselytizing, plotting and planning.

In the ether (not the anesthetic), thought is a reality. For millions of Muslim surfers, the global caliphate and Shariah law exist. They have superseded the nation-state, whether the kingdom of Saudi Arabia or the Netherlands, where Muhammad is the second most popular name for baby boys.

But don't confuse Islam with AQ,

and

don't confuse the "real" al Qaeda from

the Virtual al Qaeda.

Binny said:

All that we have mentioned has made it easy for us to provoke and bait this administration. All that we have to do is to send two mujahidin to the furthest point east to raise a piece of cloth on which is written al-Qaida, in order to make the generals race there ......( or one webmaster to set up 5 organizations )

Binny is substituting virtual for real and USA is letting him get away with it.

Hypothesis: Therefore,

As soon as IAI website is down:
IAI starts to die.

The ONLY place USA is loosing the War.

The terrorists are good at identifying the enemy, why they are the enemy, and what to do.
A world wide message.

USA offers a muddled enemy, of course there is al Qaeda, and then the Taliban oh and the Insurgents, on the Internet al Qaeda's media arm names and creates a group for EVERYONE, hand tailored to the individuals groups demographics. Somethings Brigade, or the 1950 group, or ISI. Named to attract and recruit volunteers.

All started as virtual groups, then flushed out as they recruited. A form of social networking, with militarism attached. If you try hard, 72 VIRGINS, paradise for you and 60 friends, and money for your parents, and the recruits get to play with free Guns and explosives.
There are Armys forming on the Internet.
Jihadism the NEW "porno" of the Internet.
And al Qaeda is the worlds top brand.

So the USA's enemy list is a Yard long, and would remain the same people even if they were not separating them into different groups. Point being is to create enough Groups of Jihad to embrace 90 % of the ummahs demographics.

And this is how al Qaeda can get Muslims to believe USA is in a war against Islam.
"Isn't part of your tribe in the ISI group?
See... USA is against you, also.
They killed some of your tribe.

The point is subtle.
But in this manner AQ is able to make it appear USA is in a war with Islam.
And it is believed.

1.6 Billion Muslims, 1% of any population are psycho paths?, so there are 1.6 million recruits.
People crazy enough to kill civilians, women, children, bomb mosques and market places even train their children for suicide.

That is the PARADIGM.
And USA isn't doing anything to counter this on the Net.

USA has all the cutting edge tools but they are not being applied.
They just set on the shelf, in some cases forbidden.

Right now in the USA the people are just tired of the "terrorism".
But AQ will push this till they do something big.
And that will piss the American people off and the Gloves will come off,
USA people if pissed off enough will re-up the draft and have 600,000 troops
to be pissed with.

USA has to intercept this new Internet paradigm or AQ will push this to a world war.
With huge death toll of Americans in some covert attack in America.

USA can't let AQ control the internet paradigm.

Virtual Taliban: Again.

At least two people had telephone interviews with domestic and foreign media under the name of Qari Yousaf Ahmadi, the purported Taliban spokesman, according to a voiceprint study Monday.

Bae Myung-jin, a professor at Soongsil University's phonetics institute, examined nine interviews of Ahmadi disclosed through the media between July 21 and Aug. 2 and found six out of them were made by the same person, with the other three from a different person or persons.

``The comment that the alleged Ahmadi made with the foreign press on July 26 about one hostage's killing and the comment disclosed by AIP on Aug. 2 about safety of the remaining 21 hostages were from different people,'' Bae said.

Virtual Taliban

Abdullah Mehsud:
one of the most powerful leaders of the Taliban in South Waziristan, the most powerful commander in the tribal agency.



One of the suicide attacks targeted Sherpao in his home district of Charsadda in the Northwest Frontier Province. The Pakistani government had a warrant out for his arrest but failed to execute it until today.

When they came to arrest him, he hugged a grenade, commited suicide, rather than fight.
They knew the Government had a warrant for him, and he had no body guards, put up no fight.

This most powerful leaders of the Taliban, and the tribal agency just blew himself up rather than go back to Gitmo or fight the cops that came to arrest him. No protection, no emergency exit plan, just another virtual leader, an actor, of the virtual Taliban.

AQ How much virtual? HOW MUCH REAL?

Virtual Al qaeda, ISI
maybe a virtual Taliban?

Just how much of this is REAL?

The IED attacks and KIA are real.

But their entire media arm is virtual...

Re-run old IED vids as new.

Re edit old vids and run as new?

On the Internet the same guy can run a dozen web sites. We know some of the Jahidist web site masters run 5 or 6 web sites.

In the West we tend to view every new web site and PR announcement as a new terror group.

How many are FAKE.

How long can Al qaeda persuade the Iraki Ummah to try and kill itself?

Is al qaeda only 100 guys spread out like armed Avon salesmen trying to recruit others.

Each man backed by a virtual al Qaeda type web site, probably not, but it isn't ALL real either.....how would we know?

Some force multiplier....
