The Sunni militant group 'The Army of Furqan' has welcomed Osama bin Laden's latest call late on Monday to leaders of the insurgency in Iraq to bury their rivalries and drive out the US-led coalition. "Bin Laden's speech is a sincere one which descends to Iraqi soil like assistance from Allah," said the group in a message posted to Islamist websites on Tuesday. "A commission of Islamic law experts should be created to end the divisions that have emerged between the various jihadist groups and prevent more Muslim deaths," the message continued.
"A commitment is needed to destroy the American project to create Sunni militias," the message in a reference to the 'al-Sahwa' (Awakening) contingents of Sunni tribes formed by the US forces to fight al-Qaida aligned groups. We urge all groups to take up Bin Laden's call and inflict damage on our enemy," the message concluded.| "We will watch closely and inform the Umma of your glorious victory or martyrdom whichever comes first. The songs (or spoken word poetry slams) will echo endlessly through the gardens of Paradies, or until the kuffarim at Jawa Report get our hosting company to shut us down. Insh'allah, and get going, brothers." |
