Irately Hurt, Poor Al-Qaeda
I guess they're entitled to feeling a little testy about the situation. After all, they are responsible - and bloody proud of it - for having perpetrated the most celebrated modern atrocity of our times. They aren't shy about promulgating their ideological rants against the Satanic evil West, and particularly the United States. They burnish their well-earned laurels throughout the Islamist world, dining out on that spectacular coup.The attacks on the New York World Trade Center, the centre of American financial prestige; on the Pentagon, that inviolable military redoubt; and the failed attempt at the White House which still managed to evoke horror, terror and slaughter innocents, was theirs, and theirs alone. Al-Qaeda is jealous of its reputation, and intends to defend it from any and all intemperate slurs that it was not their bold and brilliant act, but represented instead an American conspiracy.
The bloody nerve! But what can you expect from those Shias anyway? Doing their best to tarnish the gold on a Sunni operation planned and carried out to perfection.
You'd think the United Nations would know better than to give that guy, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, always spouting off about the Great Satan, another chance at the podium.
"The Iranian government has professed on the tongue of its president Ahmadinejad that it does not believe that al-Qaeda was behind 9/11 but rather, the U.S. government. So we may ask the question: why would Iran ascribe to such a ridiculous belief that stands in the face of all logic and evidence?"Pure hurt-feelings-rhetoric to which they kindly supplied their own answer online in their Despicable (oops, Inspire) magazine. "For [the Iranians] al-Qaeda was a competitor for the hearts and minds of the disenfranchised Muslims around the world." And al-Qaeda, don't you know, is really big on logic and evidence.
And al-Qaeda's inspiration to the disenfranched Muslims that populate the world is heart-warming in the extreme.
