Al-Qaeda’s First Attack

On August 7, 1998, Nairobi was bustling and busy as usual, until at 10.45am, an explosion tore through the American Embassy situated in the heart of the capital killing hundreds of people. The attacks were linked to local members of the Egyptian Islamic Jihad, and resulted in the U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation placing bin Laden on its Ten Most Wanted Fugitives list.

One senior U.S. law enforcement official told CNN that “three or four members of al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula,” or AQAP, took part in the attack. More from CNN.

They Want to Kill Us

Blind Sheik Omar Abdel Rahman

Dwight Schultz, one of Hollywood’s few outspoken conservatives, reveals the true catalyst behind the current tidal wave of Islamic unrest — a campaign by Egyptian President Mohammed Morsi trying to force the United States to release mass murderer Omar Abdel Rahman. Often referred to as “The Blind Sheik,” Rahman served as the emir, or leader, of Gama ‘at al-Islam, the radical Egyptian organization that assassinated President Anwar Sadat and staged a brutal 1997 massacre at Luxor, Egypt, that left 62 tourists and police officers dead. Rahman is serving a life sentence in US custody for his role in forming a terrorist cell in New York City that perpetrated the first bombing of the World Trade Center on Feb. 26, 1993, and murdered Jewish Defense League founder Meir Kahane.

Hani Nour Eldin

Why would President Morsi think the United States might grant clemency to a convicted assassin and terrorist? Because President Obama recently issued a visa to Hani Nour Eldin, a member of The Blind Sheik’s fanatical Islamic Group, waiving federal laws forbidding his travel to the United States, so Eldin could come to Washington, DC, to petition for Rahman’s release.

Thus, Obama is now reaping what he sowed, unleashing a demon genie from a bottle because of a failed diplomatic overture involving an attempt to appease murderers and thugs. Take it from Dwight Schultz, who portrayed Capt. “Howling Mad” Murdock on The A-Team and later Reginald Barclay on Star Trek: The Next Generation. H/T Front Page Magazine

UPDATE: Glenn Beck is reporting negotiations between the US State Department and the Egyptian government to transfer custody of The Blind Sheik to Egypt on humanitarian and health grounds. One source says the move is part of an Obama apology for the Mohammed movie.
