Al Qaeda’s chief terrorist in Iraq is trying to bring in hundreds of hardened Islamic fighters from Chechnya to help launch his offensive against U.S. forces, The Post has learned. Documents discovered on a computer disk of a captured high-level al Qaeda courier revealed that Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, the military commander of Ansar al-Islam, has proposed transferring up to 2,000 jihadi veterans from Chechnya to Iraq over the next few months, U.S. officials said.
This ain’t good. Those Chechens fight harder and better than your average al-Q cave dweller.
The officials said al-Zarqawi needs the Chechen fighters to help him carry out a terrorist campaign aimed at promoting a religious civil war inside Iraq in the run up to the June 30 deadline for the sovereignty transfer.
In the face of this news, go here for a good laugh at an asshat of denial and lies. |
