“America thinks it’s safe because of the geographical location. Thus you see it invades the Muslim lands, and it thinks that the army of the Jihad won’t reach in their lands. But the dream of the American to have safety became a mirage. Today there is no safety for any American on the globe. The mujahideen before although they had less resources, attacked New York and bombed the Twin Towers in September Eleven attacks. That blessed incursion was a fatal blow … by Allah’s willing the fear will spread among them again soon … Today, it’s time for payback … the mujahideen are much more stronger and they have more resources. Thus they are able to burn United States again.”Chris Perez, “ISIS threatens another 9/11-style attack on social media,” New York Post, April 13, 2015, http://nypost.com/2015/04/13/isis-threatens-another-911-style-attack-on-social-media/.

“Of course yes, death to America, because America is the original source of this pressure. They insist on putting pressure on our dear people’s economy. What is their goal? Their goal is to put the people against the system.

“Nidal Hasan is a hero. He is a man of conscience who could not bear living the contradiction of being a Muslim and serving in an army that is fighting against his own people. Any decent Muslim cannot live, understanding properly his duties towards his Creator and his fellow Muslims, and yet serve as a U.S. soldier. The U.S. is leading the war against terrorism, which in reality is a war against Islam. Its army is directly invading two Muslim countries and indirectly occupying the rest through its stooges. The heroic act of brother Nidal also shows the dilemma of the Muslim American community. Increasingly, they are being cornered into taking stances that would either make them betray Islam or betray their nation.” The Evolution of a Radical Cleric: Quotes from Anwar Al-Awlaki,” New York Times, May 8, 2010, http://www.nytimes.com/2010/05/09/world/09quotes.html.
