Message from Usama bin Ladin to Americans
Oppression will only go against the
oppressors.
This is a message from Usama bin Muhammad
bin Ladin to the American people regarding your aggression
in Iraq. Peace be upon those who follow the righteous path.
Some have the impression that you are
a reasonable people. But the majority of you are vulgar and
without sound ethics or good manners. You elect the evil from
among you, the greatest liars and the least decent and you
are enslaved by your richest and the most influential among
you, especially the Jews, who lead you using the lie of democracy
to support the Israelis and their schemes and in complete
antagonism towards our religion (Islam).
These schemes are paid for in our blood
and land, and your blood and economy.
This has been proved by recent events.
And the war on Iraq, which has nothing to do with you, is
proof of that.
Bush and his gang, with their heavy
sticks and hard hearts, are an evil to all humankind. They
have stabbed into the truth, until they have killed it altogether
in the eyes of the world.
With this behaviour they have encouraged
hypocrisy, and spread vice and political bribes shamelessly
at the level of heads of state.
This gang and their leader enjoy lying, war and looting to
serve their own ambitions. The blood of the children of Vietnam,
Somalia, Afghanistan and Iraq is still dripping from their
teeth. They have fooled you and deceived you into invading
Iraq a second time. And they have lied to you and the whole
world.
Nations are nothing without ethics and morals. If these are
gone, the nations are gone.
Bush has sent your sons into the lion’s den, to slaughter
and be slaughtered, claiming that this act was in defence
of international peace and America’s security, thus
concealing the facts.
On one hand he (Bush) is carrying out the demands of the
Zionist lobby that helped him to enter the White House. These
demands are to destroy the military strength of Iraq because
it is too close to the Jews in occupied Palestine, regardless
of the harm that will happen to your people and your economy.
On the other hand, he (Bush) is concealing his own ambitions
and the ambitions of the Zionist lobby and their own desire
for oil. He is still following the mentality of his ancestors
who killed the Native Americans to take their land and wealth.
He thought that this time it would be an easy task and a lie
that would not be exposed.
But God sent him to Baghdad, the seat of the Caliphate, the
homeland of people who prefer death to honey. So they (the
Iraqis) turned his profits into losses, his joy into sadness
and now he is merely looking for a way back home.
Thanks be to God Almighty who has exposed the lies of George
Bush and made his term as president a term of continual catastrophe.
To Bush I say, you are begging the world to come to your
aid, begging mercenaries from every corner of the world, even
from small states. This begging has destroyed your pride and
revealed how trivial and weak you are after claiming to defend
the whole world.
Now you are like the knight who was trying to protect people
from the Sword of Malik, and ended up begging someone to protect
him.
We reserve the right to retaliate at the appropriate time
and place against all countries involved, especially the UK,
Spain, Australia, Poland, Japan and Italy, not to exclude
those Muslim states that took part, especially the Gulf states,
and in particular Kuwait, which has become a beachhead for
the crusading forces.
And to the American soldiers in Iraq I say, now that all
the lies have been exposed and the greatest liar has been
revealed, your stay on Iraq’s land is compounding the
oppression and is a great folly.
It shows you are selling your lives for the lives of others.
And you are spilling your blood to swell the bank accounts
of the White House gang and their fellow arms dealers and
the proprietors of great companies. And the greatest folly
in life is to sell your life for the lives of others.
In conclusion, I say to the American people we will continue
to fight you and continue to conduct martyrdom operations
inside and outside the United States until you depart from
your oppressive course and abandon your follies and rein in
your fools.
You have to know that we are counting our dead, may God bless
them, especially in Palestine, who are killed by your allies
the Jews. We are going to take revenge for them from your
blood, God willing, as we did on the day of New York. Remember
what I said to you on that day about our security and your
security. Baghdad the seat of the Caliphate, will not fall
to you, God willing, and we will fight you as long as we carry
our guns. And if we fall, our sons will take our place.
And may our mothers become childless if we leave any of you
alive on our soil.
