I Thought That He Was Dead!

Our “friend” Adam Gadahn has resurfaced in a new video that pointed at the economic “problems” as proof that “the enemies of Islam” face defeat. So, he ain’t dead (yet).
“The enemies of Islam are facing a crushing defeat, which is beginning to manifest itself in the expanding crisis their economy is experiencing,” said Gadahn, in a clip of the message distributed by the SITE Intelligence Group, a Washington-based monitor of militant Web sites.
“A crisis whose primary cause, in addition to the abortive and unsustainable crusades they are waging in Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Iraq, is their turning their backs on Allah’s revealed laws, which forbid interest-bearing transactions, exploitation, greed and injustice in all its forms.”
In the video, he also appealed to Pakistani Muslims to put their differences aside and to unite.
“It’s time for you to put aside tribal, ethnic, and territorial differences and petty worldly disputes not just for now but forever and unite to restore the glories of your forefathers and hasten, Allah willing, the defeat of the Zionist-Crusader enemy and the establishment of the Islamic state, the Ummah, the so eagerly anticipated,”
It is, still another, Mark Twain moment.

Adam Gadahn
They may be listening to Gadhn–Pakistani troops[our supposed allies in the misnamed "war on terror], fired on U.S. choppers near the Afghan/Pakistan border.
Anyone trusting Pakistan from the beginning was an “inconvenient idiot.” The archives of this blog are replete with posts of the “don’t trust Pak.” However, I believe that your example of Pak firing on US troops as implying that they are listening to Ghadahn is overly simplistic. The so-called government of Pakistan is no longer that which we entered the War on Terrorism. I suspect I know your answer to this, but why is the GWOT misnamed?
Thanks for your comment.
I don’t know if anyone is listening to this tool on either side (except those paid to). He’s a boring speaker.
