On 10 November, the website of the Islamic Renewal Organization, a Saudi dissident group headed by Muhammad al-Mas'ari and based in the United Kingdom, posted several links to a new audio message issued by Shaykh Abu-Hamzah al-Muhajir, AKA Abu-Ayyub al-Masri, leader of Al-Qa'ida Organizations in Iraq. The message recorded by "Al-Furqan Foundation for Media Production at the Ministry of Information of the Islamic State of Iraq" is entitled: "The command is for none but Allah." (Part of a Koranic verse) The audiotape begins with the recitation of the following Koranic verses: ...

I wonder whether the wise of Romans realize that they have become slaves and mercenaries for Persia who fight unpaid. ... Do you think that we sacrificed our blood to leave ... the people of the south as an easy target for the Jews of Esfahan? I sat among a group of Iranian soldiers watching "Lebanon, My Love" ("Lobnan eshq-e man") in a movie theater in Shiraz. Of the two general types of Iranian action films -- killing Iraqis and killing Israelis -- it was the latter. People cheered as the Hezbollah members infiltrated into the southern Lebanon security zone and ambushed the Israelis. Every time a Zionist was killed, there would be loud cheers. When the "freedom fighters" approached an unsuspecting Israeli, those around me would shout "kill the Jew!" in anticipation. Once I have camera, using my experience in Hollywoods, I producing some new moviefilms - 'Dirty Jew', 'Dirty Jew 2', 'Attack of the Jew Claw', 'Jew Plague', 'Jew Plague 2', 'Help, there is a Jew in my Kitchen' and 'Where is my money, I think it was the Jews that take it'. I hoping that Mel Gibsons will come and direct some of these film.
... I announce the integration of all the formations that we have established, ... putting at your disposal and direct orders 12,000 fighters, who constitute the army of Al-Qa'ida. All of them have pledged an allegiance to die in the cause of God, as well as more than 10,000 others who are still not fully prepared materially. Their eyes are full of tears out of sadness that they are still unable to contribute. ... Most of the people are like the herds which do not know why they have been created and what is their objective. ... You should leniently call for the good and preach against evil especially since the infidel Ba'th Party had confused the people vis-a-vis their religion. The prophet, peace be upon him, said: "God likes leniency in everything." An Arab beduin urinated in his mosque and the people shouted at him not to do so. The prophet, may peace be upon him, said: Do not interrupt him. Then he asked for a bucket of water to be poured on the urine. The God's religion is leniency. You should not resort to extremism and exaggeration. The prophet, peace be upon him, said: "Anyone who argues with the religion will be defeated by the religion." Almighty God says: "He has chosen you, and has imposed no difficulties on you in religion; And Allah hath full power and control over His affairs; but most among mankind know it not." (Koranic verse)
