  • "Sea Of Blood"

    Video calls for 'sea of blood'
    From: Agence France-Presse
    From correspondents in Paris

    May 12, 2006

    A VIDEO by an al-Qaeda member posted on the Internet overnight
    calls on Muslims to attack Denmark, Norway and France for publishing
    cartoons of the Prophet Mohammed.

    "Muslims avenge your Prophet .... We deeply desire that the small
    state of Denmark, Norway and France ... are struck hard and
    destroyed," said Libyan Mohammed Hassan, who escaped from US
    custody at Bagram airbase in Afghanistan last July.

    "Destroy their buildings, make their ground shake and transform them
    into a sea of blood," said Hassan, dressed in military fatigues and a
    black turban, and holding an assault rifle.

    Hassan, also known as Sheikh Abu Yahia al-Libi, was one of four Arab
    terror suspects who broke out of the high-security detention facility
    at Bagram, the main US military base in Afghanistan.

    It was unclear when the 35-minute video, produced by al-Sahab, a media organisation close to Al-Qaeda, was recorded.

    [...]

    Earlier this year, the cartoons, including one showing the prophet
    with a bomb-shaped turban, sparked violent protests by Muslims
    worldwide after they appeared in Danish and other European newspapers.

    Muslims consider any image of the prophet to be blasphemous.

    Who is to say that was The Prophet? "Mohammed" is, by far, the most
    common first name in the world, so perhaps the cartoon was just a
    stereotypical Muslem -- if they respect the Prophet so much, why would
    they take his holy name upon their less-than-holy selves? :P

    And who can say those were representations of the Prophet, when there
    are no pictures OF the Prophet to know what he looked like?

    Sounds like yet another after-the-fact justification for the typical
    kneejerk violence of Islam!

    The man who stirred up the knee-jerk reaction which led to "cartoon rage", violence, murder & mayhem is leaving Denmark and returning to Gaza. He
    feels extremely humiliated that he is being viewed as a "simple terrorist",
    and "no human being can accept that".

    I wonder if the Danish government offered to help him pack?
