Al-Qaeda - The Ultimate Pyramid Scam
Oh, those wacky extremists. Give 'em a video camera, and they go nuts.
Al-Qaeda Deputy Ayman al-Zawahri has turned up in a new video where he warns the UK that Blair's policy will result in more 'volcanoes of wrath' and other such colourful euphenisms for the cowardly targeting of civilians.
But what strikes me about this new video, other than the fact that Zawahri is bat-shazbot crazy, is how Al Qaeda is a giant, violent pyramid scam. Look, we all no Zawahri had nothing to do with the 7/7 attacks. He lives in a cave. But whenever some misguided and murderous idiot with a deathwish blows himself and a few innocents up, Al Qaeda gets all the credit. It's like how we call all facial tissues 'kleenex', despite the fact that White Swan and Puffs have been making a quality product for years.
There's something so irritatingly immature about men who take credit for other people's actions. Basically you have a bunch of fanatics with a ambitious political agenda who are too scared to do anything about it. So they trick other people into doing their dirty work (the dirtiest dirty work around, as far as I can tell) and then make a fun little movie and tell the world how hardcore they are. Weak. I hope to god these guys are brought to justice, so the world, and there brainless followers, can see them for what they really are. Although satisfying in the short term, a well-aimed JDAM bomb will only make them martyrs. And some other clown will get on camera and tell us all about it. ¶ 9:58 a.m.
