Al Qaeda Threatens World Cup
2010-04-10
AL-QAEDA have vowed to bomb the World Cup - specifically the match between England and the USA in South Africa in June, warning "hundreds" of fans could die.

A branch of al-Qaeda which last year killed British hostage Edwin Dyer, 61, in Mali made the threats.

They also vowed to target resorts, hotels and car parks used by supporters during the tournament. And they claimed explosive devices which cannot be detected by security scans would be used.

The threats appear on al-Qaeda-linked websites. A statement said: "How beautiful would the game between England and the USA be when broadcast live from a stadium full of spectators - when the sound of an explosion rumbles through the stands. The resulting death toll is in the dozens and hundreds - Allah willing."

#4  They also vowed to target resorts, hotels and car parks used by supporters during the tournament.

They'll have to stand in very, very long line behind logal gangs and ANC thugs. Dangerous enough there WITHOUT bloody Al Qaeda.

#2  Another endeavor muslims are crap at, therefore unislamic. It's past time to teach them just how crap they are at unrestricted war. Maybe then the survivors might learn.

Naw that's not beautiful. That's grotesque.

Allah willing, a work accident will occur while they are preparing the bomb in the mosque run by a radical mislimb somewhere--now that's justice.
