********[myself]: Peace be upon you, noble fighters of DII. I am sorry for my poor use of Arabic. I am a Muslim living in America, so my practice of Arabic is not good. I am writing an article for the Middle East Studies Association on the Iraqi resistance in pursuit of my Master’s degree, so I wish to interview members of DII to uncover the reasons for Jihad to the American public. It is not necessary to answer every question. Who is your greatest enemy: the Americans or the Shi’a? What are your thoughts on these groups: Badr Brigade, Da’wa, Mahdi Army, SCIRI? What are your thoughts on the Americans’ intentions to kill Muqtada al-Sadr? What do you think the Americans want? What are your thoughts on Iranian-American relations? What do you think of General Petraeus? Thank you very much, and Peace and Blessings of God be upon you.The jizya is the poll tax traditionally paid by non-Muslim monotheists, dhimmis, as a penalty for disbelief in the time of Islamic Empire.
ABU DHUR AL-KUWAITI: And Peace and Blessings and Mercy of God be upon you. With regard to your first question, I believe that Doctor Ibrahim al-Shamri, the spokesman for DII, in his lecture on channel al-Jazira, said there is an Iranian occupation in Iraq and that it is more dangerous than the American occupation.
ASLAAMAAHU: We will slaughter the dirty American army and the filthy Ruwafad. Send this to the Americans. And tell them that they have reaped a slaughter.
AL-KANANI AL-UTHRI: The Mujahidin have one goal and one alone. It is the establishment of an Islamic state whose government is the Shari’a of God. And the Shari’a of God alone. Understand that they will not stop in the destruction of all who stand in their way. [ed: the following is original English] if its difficult to write in Arabic, you can use English but are you really a Muslim?
TERRORIST: The slaves of the cross do not concern us in any way. If you wish to write an article, I advise you to consult the words of the Shaykh of the Mujahidin, the Renewer of Destiny, Vanquisher of the Americans, Osama bin Laden, God protect him.
AL-KANANI AL-UTHRI: [ed: the following is original English] tell the Americans that (if Allah wills) we can launch Jihad allover the world.. until the word of Allah (subhanahu wa taala) becames the highest.. and it is..
********: Peace be upon you, my brother. You discovered my secret. I am not a Muslim. I am a Christian, but I despise the crimes of the United States in Iraq and throughout the world. I can help you in removing the illegal occupation from Iraq.
TERRORIST: You would be wiser to save yourself and your family from the hands of God and the Mujahidin. You will not taste security until we taste it in the Muslim countries and after you arrogant fools pay the jizya and learn your place. And I believe this is no place for a Crusader. Curse of God upon the infidels.
********: I am of the People of the Book. I will welcome the jizya when it comes. I am not an idolater, and I am not a crusader. The great commanders in the history of Islam employed spies from the Romans, the Jews, and the Crusaders. Khalid ibn al-Walid and Sayf al-Daula and Salah al-Din used Christians against Heraklios, John Kurkuas, and Richard the Lionheart. Were they not servants of God? The power of God is in all things.
AL-KANANI AL-UTHRI: I do not wish you Peace! You are not my brother until you testify: La ila illa Allah wa an Muhammad rusul Allah.
ABU DHUR AL-KUWAITI: [ed: in response to a statement by ******** that America and Iran are antagonistic towards each other] No, the truth is different from that. The truth is that Iran is one of America’s puppets in the region. Yes, do not find it strange, for without Iran, America could not fight in Afghanistan nor occupy Iraq. Sistani, and he is the highest Shi’a authority in Iraq, even the world, did not call for jihad against the crusader armies in Iraq!!!
ABU HAJIR AL-MANDUNI: What is this attack, my brother Kanani? Welcome and at ease, ********. Hear that the Mujahidin or terrorists (we do not argue over the name) wish for you to depart from the Muslim countries. Why these armies? Why do you assist Israel against defenseless women and children? Depart, because your presence makes all Muslims desire, even dream, of joining black al-Qaeda. Depart, your departure is preferable for you and for us. If not, you will have nothing but death. You have enough problems with drugs. Why do you support Israel with millions of dollars when the blacks received delays and negligence in aid when they were exposed to disaster?
JAMAH AL-SHARQ: Welcome, American. Throughout this topic, you have asked to speak with a Mujahid, and one has come to answer your questions. But I will reciprocate your waiting with my own endless patience, for I can not resist the joy of slaughtering your brothers.
NASIR AL-HAQ: [ed: the following is original English] Another point: Al shia'a.. Firstly we (Al Suna') believe that the Al shia'a are not Muslim peoples.. ! if you want to ask me why ..? I will say you they changes some instructions in Islam like you in Christian religion…!!! And we need to keep the Islam without these (bugs) in another words (clean) .. And you should to know that the Al shia'a and the foreigns (America , British .. etc ) Have the same level,, but we prefer to discard the Al shia'a firstly..!! So ,, anyone here in this web site will agree with America to attack Iran. And you know that Iran is the mother of Al shia'a…!! Simply we (Al Suna' and Americans) have same target now in Iran..! Finally we are expecting to make war against Iran and may we support U.S.A in this war, if U.S.A soldier's goes back to America…!!!
KHALEDSIAM: [ed: in response to a statement by ******** that the Shi’a constitute a majority in Iraq] Who told you that the Shi’a are more numerous than the Sunna in Iraq? They lied to you.
‘ADHAB AL-QUBR: [ed: the following is original English] Please read this book: Rogue State by William Blum.
********: Every study on the people of Iraq says that the Shi’a are a majority. Where have you heard otherwise?
BAGHI AL-SHAHADA: This study is the [ed: ra’s - head?] of the infidels of America.
********: I did not say that I wish a Shi’a tyranny in Iraq! I wish for the Sunna to have a greater part in the government because I do not trust Da’wa or SCIRI. But we can not deny that the Shi’a are more numerous, if not greater, than the Sunna in Iraq. The book “Insurgency and Counterinsurgency in Iraq” by Ahmad Hashim says that the Sunna make up 20% of Iraq.
GHABAR KHAIL ALLAH: It would not matter if the Sunna made up 1% of Iraq.
********: I want to know what you intend for the future of Iraq. We, the Americans, want an Iraq under a non-confessional government. We want the Shi’a and Sunna to live in the same state. The Sunna will obey the Shari’a of God and the Shi’a will listen to their Mullahs. You can show them true religion with words, as you are doing here, and without the sword! Is this future acceptable? Can you live with the Shi’a? Or must you murder them all?
AL-MAHRUM MIN AL-JIHAD: We wish for the Shari’a of Mercy, the Shari’a of Peace, to govern, and for all to submit to this Shari’a. The Ruwafad are idolaters, and, besides this, they assisted the American occupier in the occupation of Iraq! And we Muslims, American, see only the present. The future is God’s and God’s alone.
ABD AL-HADI UMAR: You say that you wish for the Shi’a and Sunna to live together, so I say to you: The Shi’a are not Muslims. They are, in fact, idolaters. I hold that God is the creator of all that is, and the creator of man, and he made all things in this creation serviceable to man, and he did all of this so we might serve Him. He is alone, we associate nothing with Him. And God sent His prophets, among them: Ibrahim and Ismail and Dawud and Sulayman and Musa and Isa and the last of them was Muhammad. And our Lord said in the Generous Qur’an: “And they who desire anything other than Islam, do not go near them, for they are the last of the losers.” As for the Shi’a, they to this day continue to kill the Sunna in Iraq. Because of this, it is necessary for us to kill them.
The handle "TERRORIST" was in English and has not been translated or modified in any way. It is worthy to note that the members of these forums do not shy from the term "arhaabi", "terrorist". It is a common synonym for "mujahid", "struggler".
