Adam Gadahn American al Qaeda In New Video
In a new anti-Israel, anti-U.S. video, an American al Qaeda member makes reference to his Jewish ancestry for the first time in an official al Qaeda message.
In the video, Adam Yahiye Gadahn, also known as Azzam the American, discusses his roots as he castigates U.S. policies and deplores Israel’s offensive in Gaza that started in late December 2008 and continued into January.
“Let me here tell you something about myself and my biography, in which there is a benefit and a lesson,” Gadahn says, as he elicits support from his fellow Muslims for “our weapons, funds and Jihad against the Jews and their allies everywhere.”
“Your speaker has Jews in his ancestry, the last of whom was his grandfather,” he says.

The video in which Gadahn speaks Arabic, with English subtitles — surfaced on Saturday. This account is based on an English transcript provided by As-Sahab Media, the media production company used by al Qaeda.
Gadahn’s Jewish ancestry has been reported in the news media. But terrorism analyst Laura Mansfield says it is the first time Gadahn acknowledged his Jewish ancestry in an official al Qaeda message.
Gadahn says his grandfather was a “Zionist” and “a zealous supporter of the usurper entity, and a prominent member of a number of Zionist hate organizations.”
Adam Gadahn is a prime example of what we -The United States of America- are up against (nothing.) To put it simple, any bonehead can be an al Qaeda operative and even rise to the top of a “cell” and be part of the chain of command. He is a low life, low level idiot with nothing more than the gumption to commit treason for money. He is a self proclaimed, uneducated air-head prophet, with the same sense as the goats he raised and slept with. The bottom line is, any juiced-up idiot -Adam- can come from any walk of life, become a terrorist and cause havoc. We (Americans) have God on our side and the core being of a compassionate human. His failed attempts to cause fear with his video’s are nothing more than an annoying segment of Beavis and Butt-Head taking up time in our precious life.
