Al-Zawahri: ‘You will not be safe until you withdraw’ [View All]

[pointblank]

Emotions aside...

At this point do we submit to this guy's warnings of future attacks if we do not get out of Iraq immediately, or has the Chimp gotten us in to deep for that.

I'm looking for well thought out opinions, I want our guys out of there as much as the next person trust me, but if we submit to this guy's demands, are we showing weakness like the Chimp would argue or is it a smart move to pull the F out and avoid what I believe are inevitable attacks on our country again?

Al-Zawahri: ‘You will not be safe until you withdraw’
He suggested there would be more attacks against other Western countries who have contributed troops to the U.S.-led multinational force in Iraq. He said those nations had ignored a three-month "truce" that bin Laden offered European nations in April 2004 to give them time to withdraw their troops from Iraq.

"Hasn't Sheik Osama bin Laden told you that you will not dream of security before there is security in Palestine and before all the infidel armies withdraw from the land of Muhammad?" al-Zawahri said.

"Instead (of accepting the truce), you spilled blood like rivers in our countries and we exploded the volcanoes of wrath in your countries."

He did not name any countries apart from Britain, but he appeared to be referring to the terror attacks in Madrid, Spain, last year that were linked to al-Qaida. Those train bombings killed 191 people.

"Our message is clear: you will not be safe until you withdraw from our land, stop stealing our oil and wealth and stop supporting the corrupt rulers," al-Zawahri said.
