al-Zawhari calls for Muslims to rise up...
---y'see, OUR leaders aren't the only ones flinging bullshit around ....
***************
Al-Qaida's No. 2 leader issued a worldwide call Thursday for Muslims to rise up in a holy war against Israel and join the fighting in Lebanon and Gaza until Islam reigns from "Spain to Iraq."
Translated, what this means is that the Sunni Fundamentalists that are Al Qaeda DESPISE the Shi'ia Hezbollah and Hamas, and are TERRIFIED that Hezbollah might actually destroy Israel and thereby solidify their position in the Arab world, or even worse, fall in to become a part of the new Persian Empire.
They really don't understand.
60+ post-WWII years of psychotic weapons-buying has put us in a position where Americans may have to go without health care or food, where our human military elements are totally disposable and given sociopathically impossible assignments, but we can blow ANYONE and ANYPLACE to Hell if it gets to that point.
Given the insanity of CRP (ahh, no, not Nixon's CRP, but the Cheney-Rumdum-Bushwah Triumvirate) it's not beyond possibility that our psychos will finish off THEIR psychos by turning Lebanon into one vast black glassy surface of heat-fused sand extending border-to-border, north-to south and east to west.
A skateboarder's paradise.

In the message broadcast by Al-Jazeera television, Ayman al-Zawahri, second in command to Osama bin Laden, said that al-Qaida now views "all the world as a battlefield open in front of us."
The Egyptian-born physician said that the fighting between Israel and Hezbollah and Palestinian militants would not be ended with "cease-fires or agreements."
"It is a jihad (holy war) for the sake of God and will last until (our) religion prevails ... from Spain to Iraq," al-Zawahri said. "We will attack everywhere." Spain was controlled by Arab Muslims for more than seven centuries until they were driven from power in 1492.
