Yemen Prince Killed In Iraq Fighting For Al Qaeda

Published by at 8:46 pm under All General Discussions,Iraq

Looks like the Iraqis took out a big target today if this report is accurate:

Iraqi National – WNA / Baghdad Office/ Anbar rescue Council announced today, Thursday, the killing of five members of the al-Qaeda network of Anbar governorate west of Iraq.

The leader of the Council, Sheikh Hamid Farhan said that the local council forces killed five terrorists among them a Yamani nationality prince in the area of Heet in western Iraq.

It would seem a Yemen Prince would act as a top echelon leader for Al Qaeda. And I am sure this is going to have repurcussions in the area. In other times this would be seen as a possible act of war between the two countries. Clearly the Islamic Civil war is raging to tip Iraq towards the future or back to the dark days of the fundamentalism vision of Al Qaeda.

    Our troops have been working really hard with local Sheikhs in the Al Anbar to protect themselves from Al Quada infiltration. Seems that it is working. Good for us!

    AJ: why are you surprised?

    Bin Laden is really a Yemani!

    Where bloodties and loyalties are remembered for centuries, the Bin Laden family had Saudi citizenship, by dint of Bin Laden’s father working for the Saudi Royal Family, but the Bin Laden homeland is the Hadramut wadi in South Yemen, a centuries old hotbed of Salafiyyah Sunni Islam in Yemen!

    That is the real roots of the Bin Laden family, not the supposedly Wahhabis of Saudi Arabia!

    In addition, Yemeni Salafiyyah Imans, for centuries, have immigrated to India, Pakistan, and even the Aech Province of Indonesia, and have inspired generations of anti-Western/anti-Colonial/Anti-British Sufi movements in the former Empire of India/Pakistan, and Indonesia!

    Bin Laden knows this, when he goes in search of followers, who know their history; it’s only us stupid Westerners who overlook these aspects of history!
