Mogadishu (18/04/2013). In the Name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful.
As the Jihad against the Crusaders and their apostate allies continues in Somalia, the Mujahideen have been conducting a series of coordinated attacks against the coalition of disbelievers who are bent on desecrating the noble faith of Islam and contaminating it with the evil of democracy.
In a campaign of attacks, carried out by the ‘Muhammad Ibn Maslamah Brigade’ and launched in January 2013/Safar 1434, the Mujahideen have been specifically targeting the security apparatus of the apostate regime in Mogadishu, namely the intelligence agency and the police force. The intelligence agency is made up hundreds of apostate agents who are trained, funded and work under the auspices of several Western intelligence agencies so as to persecute Muslims in Somalia and secure the interests of the Crusaders in this Muslim land.
Mujahideen counter-intelligence teams have carried out a string of high-profile assassinations targeting senior apostate intelligence officials as well as coordinated attacks against the different sections of these agencies. And by the permission of Allah alone, the Mujahideen have succeeded in eliminating more than 127 apostate intelligence officials and mid-level operatives and spies since the launch of the campaign.
The large number of deaths has resulted in the implosion of the apostate intelligence agency and the resignation of the apostate heads of intelligence, giving a fresh impetus to the campaign of the Mujahideen. Most recently, the apostate head of the intelligence, Ahmad Mo’alim Fiqi, was sacked last month for failing to prevent the Mujahideen from carrying out the deadly attacks that rocked the capital and killed many of their senior operatives, and until now no one has been formally appointed to be in charge of the agency.
The campaign goes hand in hand with the military operations against the African Crusaders in all the regions of South/Central Somalia and the Mujahideen vow to strengthen and double their efforts in the coming months, insha-Allah, until not a single apostate spy raises his head above ground. And Allah has full power and control over His Affairs, but most of mankind know it not.
