UK Bombshell: America Negotiates with Islamofascist Terrorists

UPDATED WITH CRITICAL INFORMATION

10 December 2006: A tremendous bombshell appeared in today’s edition of The Sunday Times. The bombshell within the article datelined from Amman, Jordan concerns a series of apparently top secret negotiations which have been ongoing for all of 2006. These direct negotiations occurred between the Muslim US Ambassador to Iraq and the senior commanders of the Sunni islamist jihad – including members of the "Al Qaeda" umbrella organization. If accurate, and there's scant reason to believe it is not, this article constitutes either a leak of extremely grave political damage to the United States of America, or a blatant attempt to cause extremely grave political damage. The devil of which in this case are the specifics cited by this report.

According to the Sunday Times report these negotiations have been hosted by the formerly Ba’athist, former Prime Minister and “secular” Shiite, Iyad Allawi, at his Amman, Jordan villa since January 2006. These negotiations were attended by US Ambassador to Iraq, Zalmay Khalilzad, (reportedly soon to replace outgoing US Ambassador to the UN, John Bolton) and senior commanders of the Sunni islamofascists, which include the infamous Ansar al-Sunna. More on Ansar al-Sunnah to follow below.
The direct reference to "Al Qaeda" is as follows:

“Last week the long-awaited report of the Iraq Study Group, co-chaired by James Baker, the former secretary of state, and Lee Hamilton, a former congressman, called for America to seek to engage with all parties in Iraq, with the exception of Al-Qaeda.
However, the insurgents’ account of the hushed-up meetings reveals that concerted attempts to engage them in negotiations had already failed earlier this year.”

The reference to the "Al Qaeda" umbrella organization is made primarily due to America's fixation on Usama bin Ladin and "The Base" group of international terrorists and state-sponsored agents he utilized. These terrorists and state-sponsored agents have attacked America repeatedly, and were directly involved the first World Trade Center attack of February 1993; the planning and execution of the April 1995 attack on the Alfred P, Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City, and the horrific events of September 11, 2001 as well the subsequent anthrax letter mailings throughout the United States.

This report cannot be filed in any semblance of a finalized version without firmly identifing who these islamofascists are, who the enemy is in Iraq and who America is reportedly negotiating with. Far more important than the members of "Al Qaeda" within the Ansar al-Sunnah terrorist group, it must be acknowledged that the leadership of the vast majority of terrorist and military actions in Iraq is not "Al Qaeda" per se, but remnant members of the Ba'athist regime itself, the Fedayi Saddam, the Al-Mukhabarat (Iraqi Intelligence), and former-regime Special Forces/Special Republican Guard. This is who America's representative in Iraq is negotiating with? Unfortunately, it appears so.

So now, America, you know what needs to be known. This is what our military forces in Iraq need to concentrate on with extreme urgency at the direction of the Commander-In-Chief. This is the opposing force we must focus on to ensure a result of "Mission Complete". Get your pen or keyboard readly America, your mission will be tasked at the end of this article. But first, there is more that you need to know.

I have been advised by Dr. Laurie Mylroie that during a recent visit to the United States, Abdul Aziz al-Hakim, a senior Iraqi Shiite theologian and leader of the primary Iraqi political group known as the Supreme Council for the Islamic Revolution in Iraq (SCIRI) did not even mention the name "Al Qaeda" during numerous speaking engagements and meetings in Washington DC in November 2005 and again as recently as last week. Not that he would point an accusing finger at Iran or the presence of Iranian-supplied Hezbollah training cadres as a source of terror and military activity in Iraq, they are also a serious factor, but the fact that he focused on the remnants of the former regime as what should be a primary objective is paramount in terms of its tactical importance.

It is common knowledge that the Iraq Study Group led by James Baker and Lee Hamilton has advocated the insanity of opening direct negotiations with Syria and hell-bent-for-nuclear weapons Islamofascist Iran on a political solution for Iraq. The Sunday Times report makes the obvious connection to such a scheme since these ongoing negotiations failed, at least in part due to the Ba’athist leadership and their Sunni Islamofascist allies chaffing at the idea of inviting the Iranians and Syrians to sit at a more inclusive negotiating table. With such an abundance of card carrying former-regime Ba'athist Party members and their Islamofascist allies at the negotiating table why bother to exclude "Al Qaeda?" This makes no logical sense to me seeing how the invitation includes the primary "Al Qaeda" state-sponsor from 1991 until 2003 - the regime of Saddam Hussein. Therefore, and for the moment, I am inclined to accept that this extremely damaging leak as some weight to it. This is where Ansar al-Sunnah as a participant in these negotiations is extremely, extremely relevant.

Getting back to the report, it specifically names one of these terrorist participants, Ansar al-Sunnah. Ansar al-Sunnah is an acknowledged ally of the late-Abu Mus’ab al-Zarqawi’s "Al Qaeda in Iraq" terrorist organization. In fact, Ansar al-Sunnah is an off-shoot of Zarqawi’s original "Al Qaeda" cell known as Ansar al-Islam. Both currently operate in the Sunni triangle, Al Anbar province and in Mosul. Most of the members are imported foreign Islamofascist terrorists. Iraqi intelligence officers report they also receive a certain amount of assistance from both Iran and Syria.

Moreover, these are the same Islamofascist terrorists who bombed the US dining facility on Forward Operating Base (FOB) Marez in Mosul, Iraq two years ago next week and which killed over 20 and wounded at least 50 more. Their cold-blooded murder victims also include numerous beheading victims as well as Margaret Hassan.

I have gone to some length here to inform you of who these terrorists are because the mainstream media have bent over backwards in their untiring efforts to apply the politically correct label of “insurgents” to these demonic bastards. Again, this is who America negotiates with? I hope now you understand the gravity, the seriousness of this report, the tremendous damage it can, and probably will cause to be inflicted upon America.

Reports such as this create more questions than they answer. Questions such as, who will be held accountable for this revelation? James Baker, Lee Hamilton and the ISG? The U.S. government? The Bush Administration? Whatever the case, there is nothing good to come of this situation as it stands, and I fear for the future of my country because of it.

To my mind the most important questions to ask at this point are:

1.) How do WE address the problems just identifed?

2.) When do WE execute the return to the proper and prudent course of action, defeat the enemy and pro-actively move towards a mission complete status begun in March 2003?

3.) When do WE express our sovereign will to bring our sons and daughters home flush with complete victory?

I believe the most correct answer lies with you, the American electorate, and with your outstanding ability to use your pen and keyboard. The victory we all desire begins with We The People and flows downhill to Washington, D.C. For the future and the sake of our progeny it is what we do now that is of critical importance because all of us and our children will be its ultimate victims if we do nothing but sit comforatbly at home reading the tallies of our bank statements and 401K accounts. We are also going to become victims of the current no-win situation because, as many of us suspect and a few of us know for certain, the agenda of America's "elite" is terribly self-serving and nowhere near in synchronization with the best interests of this nation, its people, or our Constitution. Their self-interests have as much to do with why America is losing this war as the remnants of Saddam Hussein's regime and Iranian subversion do. These are the people sitting at the negotiating table in Amman, Jordan.

So, America, what are YOU going to do about it?
