New statement from the Muslim Youth Center: "On the Suspension of HSM Press Office Twitter Account"


In the name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful the Most Beneficent
Malindi (27/01/2013) – MYC in Kenya, Tanzania and Somalia condemns the blatant attempt by the Kuffar to censor our beloved brothers in Al-Shabaab from disseminating the truth to the Ummah in East Africa. The recent suspension of Al-Shabaab’s Twitter account is nothing more than an erroneous attempt spurred on by U.S. counter-terrorism strategies aimed at disrupting and dismantling global Jihad.
The fact remains the near daily Twitter messages from Al-Shabaab were considered timely and relevant by the Ummah. More so, Al-Shabaab’s messages via Twitter offered unadulterated clarity on the situation and status of the Mujahideen’s campaigns to liberate Somalia from the siege of the Kuffar and apostate.
It is ironic when the Kuffar claims that a basic tenet of its “democracy” is freedom of information and expression that it cringes up when our brothers in Al-Shabaab expose their lies and fabrications through Twitter. Suspension or not, we urge our brothers in Al-Shabaab to soldier on with their sword of truth in unmasking the Kuffar’s plots to silence Muslims both in Somalia and globally.
While we are confident that our brothers in Al-Shabaab will continue to find alternative mediums and forums to spread the message of the Mujahideen, MYC stands prepared to act as one such medium for the dissemination of the Mujahideen’s message to the Ummah. No task is more worthy than spreading the message of Jihad to the Ummah.
We ask Allah to continue strengthening the Mujahideen in Somalia.

al-Malāḥim Media presents three new audio messages from al-Qā’idah in the Arabian Peninsula

al-Malāḥim Media presents a new video message from al-Qā’idah in the Arabian Peninsula: "On the Intervention of France in the War on Mali"

UPDATE 1/25/2013 3:53 PM: Here is an English translation of the below Arabic video message:
In the Name of Allah; the Merciful; the Compassionate.
Praise be to Allah; the Lord of all beings & there shall be no aggression save for evildoers.
and peace and blessings be upon our faithful prophet and upon all of his family and companions; then;
The decision taken by the French Government to intervene in the war against Mali doesn’t serve its interests. The government considered solely their view regardless of the view of the French people and their interests.
its former decision of withdrawal from Afghanistan was a rational one; Yet how could it make today such a decision to intervene in this particular region! even though its history among those nations was very bloody; at which point All Muslims are infuriated.
O French people; This aggression; arbitrariness and oppression against mankind shall only bring you bad consequences and woe. There was certainly a lesson for you in your previous aggression; How long did it last? And how did it end?
for how long are you going to abstain from reflecting on your past mistakes?
Stop pulling wool over other’s eyes; claiming that your intervention is for the sole purpose of protecting Mali’s people and helping them; c’est de la poudre aux yeux!
Why did you not interfere in their affliction ages ago?
& Why don’t you protect the Palestinians against the brute aggression of Israel?
& then if you’re truthful why don’t you intervene to protect the people of Iraq and Syria; and other oppressed nations?
hence it’s only sensible that this aggression is a Crusade against the Muslims’ countries and nations. that is not unexpected; not long ago you commit aggression against the veil of the Muslim women & today you aggress against governing under Sharia laws. you respected neither your invalid laws within the bound of your lands nor your unjust treaties with others, Where’s the Democracy you keep ranting about?
We in Al-Qa’ida Organization in the Arabian Peninsula counsel the French people and their government; to retract this aggression & to pay attention to their deteriorating economic conditions and internal problems; you’ve enough trouble; do not ask for more. there’s a lesson for you in what have become of the Americans, ask them; for none could inform you of their fate like them who are aware of it. the Americans having tasted blood in Iraq & Afghanistan realised that they bit off more than what they can chew. Think this over rationally if you wish to save yourselves. The Muslims are all but one body and one nation; certainly they couldn’t see their brothers in religion suffer from flagrant aggression and brute oppression and do not rush to their aid. as of today; the Mujahideen’s strength differs from how it used to be; their armies multiplied; their brigades spread out; and they are all but one hand against whoever aggress against them.
Allah the Almighty says: “وَلَمَنِ انتَصَرَ بَعْدَ ظُلْمِهِ فَأُولَـٰئِكَ مَا عَلَيْهِم مِّن سَبِيلٍ”
“There is no blame against him who avenges himself after he has been wronged.”
all honour belongs to Allah, and to His Messenger, and to the believers.

New statement from the Islamic State of Iraq: "On the Third Wave of Revenge For the Free Women of Ahl al-Sunnah in the Prisons of the Apostates and Saluting Those Rebelling and Officially Announcing the Liquidation of al- 'Īssāwī"

kqfc1
English:
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
الحمد لله ربّ العالمين، والصّلاة والسّلام على نبيّنا محمّد، وعلى آله وصحبه أجمعين… أما بعد:
In continuation for the series of Ghazwas for the freewomen of Ahli Sunnah in the prisons of the Safavid Rafida, and after keeping the trust on Allah and taking what have been facilitated by Him from worldly and Sharia reason, the security and military detachments in the Islamic State of Iraq conducted a third blessed wave, by demolishing several strongholds of the criminals and their riffraff and lackeys in different regions of Iraq simultaneously and high coordination with the grace of Allah, but despite of all the procedures that were taken by the Rafida government in preparation to receive the strikes that won’t be the last Allah willing.
And Allah facilitated to the mujahidin to reach their targets and execute it with accuracy Alhamdulillah, and its details will be published after being documented in the periodical statements of the information ministry Insha’Allah.
And we repeat greeting to all the zealous Muslims who rose up for ardor for their religion and honor and came out to support their captive sisters and to repel the injustice that inflicted Ahli Sunnah from the criminal gangs that were planted by the crusaders and it was watered by the poisons of the evil Safavid project, we say to them: your sons the mujahidin will not let you down Allah willing, and you will find them before you in every place where you support your religion and repel the injustice on your brothers, and we warn the mouthpieces of Satan that spread that the mujahidin are against the demonstrations and protests that you are doing, all that is lies and slander that isn’t accepted by the clever believer, but we call you once again and remind you to have sincere intention toward Allah then purify your ranks from the defilements of treachery and thieves who always trade with your cause and were a reason in wasting your rights and handing you over to the Safavid Iranian project in return for crumbs of posts and privileges that are thrown to them by Al-Maliki and his criminal sectarian government… and remember our people that who was relapsed by Allah in the sludges of treachery who sold the religion and honor and became a reason for betraying you and wasting your rights, won’t be a reason for pride and preserving the honors and retrieving the rights.
And we give you glad tidings of battles conducted by your sons the mujahidin in the desert of Anbar and other to repel the campaigns of the Safavid army and cut the lifeblood that aid that prolongs the life of the criminal Nusayri regime to kill your brothers in Al-Sham, also we congratulate you for plucking the head of the dog of the Americans and tail of the Safavid Rafida, the criminal apostate (Ayfan Saadoun Al-Issawi) whom Allah facilitated for the mujahidin to tear him up and his entourage to carnage and send him to who preceded him from the sheikhs of the Shawas of the disgrace, this criminal who was stubborn and arrogant and insisted on his Kufr, treachery and war against the Moslems an weakening their thorn and empowering the Safavid army in the land of Ahli Sunnah, until he passed away on the hands of the mujahidin on his current status to be a lesson and example for who comes after him.
So Alhamdulillah for giving success and guidance to the mujahidin and His cunning against His enemy and their enemy, and we ask Allah for who participated in these Ghazwas to be sincere and He accept his actions, and accept the martyrdom seekers who participated in it and resurrect them among the prophets and Sidiqin and make us follow them without temptation.
Allah Akbar

New video message from Katībat al-Mulathamūn's Khālid Abū al 'Abbās (Mukhtār bin Muḥammad Bilmukhtār): "Claiming Responsibility for the In Aménas Operation"

UPDATE 1/22/13 9:24 AM: Here is an English translation of the below Arabic video message:
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
الحمدلله رب العالمين، ولا عدوان إلا على الظالمين، وصلى الله على نبينا الكريم، وبعد:
We in Al-Qaeda Organization declare our responsibility for this blessed Fedayan operation which was conducted by 40 mujahidin, from the Muhajirin (foreign) and Ansar (locals) from different Islamic countries and even from the West, under the name of the “Signatories with Blood” who have promised Allah to give support and retrieve the dignity or (receive) martyrdom and Jannah.
This brigade which we established to defend our land and honors which have been under the conspiracy of crusader France with the head of ruling regime in Algeria who offended the dignity and sacrifices of this proud nation and the blood of 1.5 million martyrs by allow the previous colonizer to use our land and skies to kill our people and brothers in Mali.
And we are ready to negotiate with the Western states and the Algerian regime under the condition of stopping the assault and bombardment against the Muslim Malian people, especially in the Azawad region, and respecting their choice of implementing the Islamic Sharia on their land.
As for the Americans we say: we are ready to exchange all your hostages that are held by us in return for releasing the patient sheikh Omar Abdurrahman and returning him to his people and family in Egypt and if we have one thousand from you we would have exchanged them for him for loyalty to his knowledge, Hijrah and Jihad, and our patient sister Aafia Siddiqui, may Allah relieve her from her anguish.
And Allah is the master of His affair, but most people do not know.
And to Allah belongs the might and to His Messenger and to the believers, but the hypocrites do not know.

Amir of the Al-Mulathamin Brigade
