Adam Gadahn: Domesticating the Fake al-Qaeda Threat

 

Kurt Nimmo | September 13 2005

 

 

It is certainly no coincidence an American al-CIA-duh patsy, Adam

Yahiye Gadahn, was splashed all over the corporate media on the

anniversary of nine eleven. " The video features an American-sounding

man with a concealed face whom officials believe to be Adam Yahiye

Gadahn, an Islamic convert from Southern California wanted for

questioning by the FBI, " reports ABC News. " Officials say an American

speaker may have been chosen to issue the threat against Los Angeles

to make the message appear more ominous. "

 

Or he was " chosen " by his intelligence handlers for another reason—to

once again give us the impression American miscreants are involved

with al-Qaeda, an organization in large part responsible for the boast

that the Afghan operation was the most successful in the CIA's history

(in fact so successful the CIA continued to use the intelligence

contrivance and its derivatives in Chechnya, Dagestan, Bosnia, Kosovo,

and elsewhere).

 

Connecting the dots, ABC, fulfilling its role as a spinner of Bushian

myths, tells us so-called " officials " (habitually nameless) harbor

concerns " about US cells supporting Al Qaeda " that are supposedly

" heightened by the July 7 bombings in London, in which four British

Muslims killed themselves and 52 other people. "

 

It apparently does not matter at all that the London bombings were

never connected to al-Qaeda or for that matter were the perpetrators

ever satisfactorily identified (since they were conveniently blown to

smithereens, or so we are told)—in Bushzarro (and Blairzarro) world,

all terrorism stems from a single source—an evil and omnipotent clan

of medieval Muslim cave dwellers who took their name from an

intelligence database. As if to spike Adam Yahiye Gadahn's absurd

performance, Lord Stevens, former metropolitan London police

commissioner, revealed his assertion " terrorists plotted to

assassinate British Prime Minister Tony Blair during the Queen's

golden jubilee celebrations in London 3 years ago, " according to

Rediff. Since Blair was actually never in danger, he was " absolutely

unfazed " and " Blair and his wife said they were determined to continue

to take part, spurning bulletproof vests. " How brave.

 

It was a little more than a week ago a federal appeals court panel

(stuffed with Bushites) ruled that the government does not have to

charge former Chicago gang-banger Jose Padilla with a crime and can

hold him forever, in violation of the U.S. Constitution, as a

so-called " enemy combatant. " Judge J. Michael Luttig—appointed to the

United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit by Dubya's

daddy—made up a lie when he wrote upon the ruling: " Padilla, after

all, in addition to supporting hostile forces in Afghanistan and

taking up arms against our troops on a battlefield in that country …

also came to the United States in order to commit future acts of

terrorism against U.S. citizens and targets. " Luttig's assertion is a

lie because Padilla has never seen the inside of a courtroom (once

upon a time a guaranteed right for all accused Americans under the

Constitution), where the accused were allowed to face accusers and be

judged by a jury of peers. The United States Court of Appeals for the

Fourth Circuit has made a shameful mockery of this process.

 

Now we are told Adam Gadahn is on the loose. " The Herald Sun found Mr.

Gadahn is the son of a psychedelic musician, Phil Pearman, who changed

the family name to Gadahn and dropped out of society to become a goat

farmer in Winchester, south of Los Angeles, " writes Nick Papps.

" During his teens, he began to rebel against his family and society,

developing a love for death metal music, and in 1993, at 15, he moved

out of home to live with his grandparents. Later, on a university

website where he wrote of his conversion to Islam, Mr. Gadahn recalled

how he `had become obsessed with demonic heavy metal music, something

the rest of my family (as I now realize, rightfully so) was not happy

with.' " Soon thereafter, he attended a mosque in California's Orange

County and was eventually trolled in by al-CIA-duh.

 

Gadahn, the screwed up son of a California hippie, and Padilla, a

Chicago gang-banger known to succumb to road rage, are part and parcel

of the American pastiche—and thus the threat they allegedly present is

ubiquitous. In effort to combat this pervasive threat, we must

surrender our rights, stretching back to the Magna Carta of 1215, the

" Great Charter " which limited the absolute power of monarchs over

common men and served as the foundation for the U.S. Constitution and

the Bill of Rights. Our monarch, George W. Bush, and his crew of

neocon and neolib racketeers, are determined to dismantle our liberty

through concocted terrorism. Gadahn and Padilla are the next step in

this fake terrorist plot, transferring the threat closer to home, from

distant and alien cave-dwelling Muslims to American kids seduced by

Islam in the heartland.

 

Of course, the Gadahns and Padillas are rare birds and few and far

between (as intelligence patsies are usually small in number) but the

point here is not to guard against homegrown Islamic enemies but

rather the enemies of state (as defined by their opposition to tyranny

and criminal rulers) who are much larger in number. Now that a Bush

Senior crony has ruled Americans can be tossed in military dungeons

without due process of law (thus egregiously violating the Sixth

Amendment), the time has arrived to create the impression (via fake

terrorists issuing fake videos) that more Americans may need to be

tossed in military brigs, never to be seen or heard from again (since

the " war on terror " will last forever, or at least a generation or

two). Rest assured—on the day a " suitcase nuke " is detonated somewhere

in America—not only will Muslims be rounded up (employing recent

lessons learned in New Orleans) but a litany of others, especially

those who demand the rule of law below followed to the letter and

speak out against the obvious dismantlement of the Constitution. Such

Americans may soon be tackled, disarmed, trundled off in the night, or

simply shot outright.

'New' Al Qaeda Tape Broadcast October 2004? 13 Sep 2005 An 'Al Qaeda' videotape

featuring the voice of California-born Al Qaeda-connected Adam Gadahn was

released by ABC News in October 2004. The 75-minute tape was used by the Bush

Administration to stoke public fears of more terrorist attacks (and cost Senator

John Kerry votes in the presidential 'election'). This tape appears to have been

recently recycled as a Weapon of Mass Distraction. On Sunday, September 11,

2005, ABC News obtained and broadcast a 'new' Al Qaeda tape, also featuring the

voice of Adam Gadahn. If there are indeed two *different* tapes (as ABC News

claims), the key elements from the 2004 Adam Gadahn tape and the 2005 tape are

'strikingly similar.' By the way, Bush uses these tapes like holiday tablecloths

and china. He brings out the Al Qaeda tapes for 'special occasions,' --such

as... plummeting poll numbers and emerging eye-witness accounts of levee

explosions. --Lori Price

 

From a 12 Sept. post by Barbara Honegger: " ABC Releases 'New' 'Al Qaeda' tape

threatening L.A. on 9/11 anniversary, one day before L.A blackout. WHY did the

Bush Administration, via ABC News, JUST bring up an 'Al Qaeda' threat

(originally released in Oct. 2004, before the last election) mentioning LOS

ANGELES as a target for a 'next' Al Qaeda attack 'far greater than 9/11', on the

fourth 9/11 anniversary JUST BEFORE the power blackout [link] today in Los

Angeles? ...The Oct. 2004 taped 'Al Qaeda' threat that the Administration just

RE-raised yesterday, via ABC's release of the 'new' tape, says (excerpt):

'People of America: I remind you of the weighty words of our leaders, Sheikh

Osama bin Laden and Dr. Ayman al-Zawahiri, that what took place on September 11

was but the opening salvo of the global war on America,' he says. 'And that,

Allah willing, the magnitude and ferocity of what is coming your way will make

you forget all about September 11.' The 'new' tape says: 'Yesterday, London and

Madrid. Tomorrow Los Angeles and Melbourne.' "

 

From CNN: Officials downplay threat on purported al Qaeda tape --Los Angeles,

Australia mentioned as possible targets From David Ensor and Kevin Bohn CNN

Washington Bureau Monday, September 12, 2005 Posted: 1:56 p.m. EDT (17:56 GMT)

" U.S. counterterrorism officials said Monday that they were skeptical that a

purported al Qaeda tape that threatened California and Australia was a prelude

to an attack... On the tape, a masked man speaking in American-accented English

says, 'Yesterday, London and Madrid. Tomorrow, Los Angeles and Melbourne, Allah

willing.' ABC News first obtained and broadcast the tape Sunday. Officials said

that the speaker in the tape 'appears to be the same' person who called himself

'Azzam the American' in a previous tape. Authorities identified him as Adam

Gadahn and said he was from the Los Angeles area. The FBI has said Gadahn " is

being sought in connection with possible terrorist threats against the United

States. "

 

From CNN: Intelligence points to Californian on terror tape --Official: 'We have

some confidence' From David Ensor CNN Tuesday, November 9, 2004 Posted: 10:12 PM

EST (0312 GMT) " U.S. intelligence officials say a videotape obtained last month

in Pakistan by ABC News appears to have been made by an American wanted for

questioning in connection with possible al Qaeda threats. Intelligence officials

now say they believe the man threatening terrorism against the United States on

the tape is Adam Gadahn, a young Californian who converted to Islam and left the

United States. 'We have some confidence but not certainty' that the voice on the

tape is that of Gadahn, one official said... ABC News broadcast portions of the

75-minute tape in late October, but a U.S. intelligence official said then that

the CIA, after a technical analysis, could not determine whether it was

authentic. On the video, a masked man holding a rifle who identified himself as

'Azzam the American' threatened further terrorist attacks against the United

States. "

 

CNN uses *a similar picture* of Adam Gadahn, and uses the following captions:

 

From November 9, 2004: " Adam Gadahn is wanted for questioning by the FBI. "

From September 12, 2005: " An official said the FBI does not know Adam Gadahn's

hereabouts. " [ROFL!!]
