Bin Laden’s Speech Contains Hidden Message
By Hassan Abdi

The latest video tape made by al-Qaeda leader Osamah Bin Laden prior to the sixth anniversary of the 9/11 attacks contained a satanical fatwa which appears to have escaped journalists and experts on both sides of the Atlantic.

For those who fail to understand the language and theology of al-Qaeda his words may seem to contain no overt threat to the American public however to his army of wolves the howls of their ideologue and supreme commander are loud and clear.

“You permitted Bush to complete his first term, and stranger still, chose him for a second term, which gave him a clear mandate from you — with your full knowledge and consent — to continue to murder our people in Iraq and Afghanistan. Then you claim to be innocent! The innocence of yours is like my innocence of the blood of your sons on the 11th — were I to claim such a thing,” he stated.

In this recent tape Bin Laden is reminding his supporters that he deems those who live in the West to be as guilty as their leaders, because they democratically elected their Governments, and therefore they are lawful targets, men, women and children.

Racism and Prejudice continues to be a hot topic today, despite efforts to denounce racism throughout the world, it still exists to varying degrees, most of which is very subtle these days. During March of 2005, a workshop was created to discuss racism and prejudice in N. Ireland, an area which has seen great turmoil in the way of paramilitary war and terror, but recently has become steeped in racism as immigration has accelerated with the end of the troubles in N. Ireland. As it was noted on the internet, "It's perhaps the only city in the western hemisphere were the estate agents actually carry advertisements clearly stating "no blacks, chinese, pakistani etc etc". Belfast has been labelled by the European Union as the most racist city in Europe and by the United Nations as the most racist city in the world. This programme was sponsored by a government funded function to discuss racism and prejudice, and in this case - hear what Islam says about the topic.

Allah, the Majestic mentions: 

And among His Signs is the creation of the heavens and the earth, and the difference of your languages and colours. Verily, in that are indeed signs for men of sound knowledge. (ar-Rum, 30:22) 

O mankind! We have created you from a male and a female, and made you into nations and tribes, that you may know one another. Verily, the most honourable of you with Allâh is that (believer) who has At-Taqwa [i.e. pious) . Verily, Allah is All-Knowing, All-Aware. (Al-Hujurat 49:13) 

also,

He it is Who shapes you in the wombs as He pleases. La ilaha illa Huwa (none has the right to be worshipped but He), the All-Mighty, the All-Wise. (Aali Imran 3:6)

Allah, it is He Who has made for you the earth as a dwelling place and the sky as a canopy, and has given you shape and made your shapes good (looking) and has provided you with good things. That is Allâh, your Lord, then blessed be Allâh, the Lord of the 'Alamîn (mankind, jinns and all that exists). (Ghafir 40:64)

He has created the heavens and the earth with truth, and He shaped you and made good your shapes, and to Him is the final Return (At-Taghabun 64:3)
