“O American nation, did the war end with the killing of Sheikh Osama bin Laden (may Allah accept him) like you leaders lied unto you? Did the call to fight you end with the killing of Sheikh Anwar al-Awlaki like they exploited your inattention? Did your aggression on Afghanistan, Palestine and other Muslim countries end? Did you annihilate the Jihadi groups that, by the Grace of Allah, have spread everywhere after they have only been in Afghanistan? Today, they are near your homes if not in them.”“Al-Qaeda Arabian Peninsula’s (AQAP) Qasim al-Rimi Video Indicator of Upcoming Attack Against Americans,” IntelCenter, June 2, 2013, http://intelcenter.com/reports/AQAP-ThreatWarning-2Jun2013.html.

Extremists: Their Words. Their Actions.

In Their Own Words:

We reiterate once again that the brigades will directly target US bases across the region in case the US enemy commits a folly and decides to strike our resistance fighters and their camps [in Iraq].
