According to a Reuters report, an al-Qaeda spokesman warned Germans that if they don’t vote to change their government in the Sept. 27 national election, there will be a “bad awakening,” according to the U.S.-based IntelCenter.
On the almost 26-minute video, Abu Talha, also known as Bekay Harrach, spoke in German and told Muslims to avoid vital services for two weeks following the election and for Muslim youth to let al-Qaeda act first if jihad is declared in Germany, the Alexandria, Virginia-based IntelCenter said in an e-mailed report.
Al Qaeda make a lot of threats, but don’t think for a moment that they are empty threats. Don’t forget…they are opportunistic in nature. When they have an opportunity they will take it. They have many cells, albeit small cells, throughout almost every country in the world, and they will take advantage of attacking anyone who gives them the opportunity. As far as we, in the U.S. are concerned, they are only waiting for a specific opportunity to present itself. Eternal Vigilance is something we must have to keep our country safe. All the men and women who are working around the clock, to make sure we don’t give them the opportunity to strike,are the only reason we have remained safe, in our homes and in our lives. We owe a debt of gratitude to each and everyone who has the courage to fight this insidious enemy. Thank you for your dedication, and devotion, to America.
