Al-Qaeda Declara Guerra contra Estado Islâmico


Os muçulmanos dizem que o último pedido de Maomé foi que os muçulmanos não fizesse guerra contra si mesmos. Se isso é verdade, os muçulmanos nunca o obedeceram. Mesmo quando Maomé era vivo, eles já brigavam e depois da morte foi uma sequência de lutas internas sem fim até hoje. Xiitas e sunitas se detestam, entre os sunitas há várias facções que se matam, etc.

Hoje, foi divulgado que o líder da al-Qaeda, o médico egípcio, Al-Zawahiri declarou guerra ao Estado Islâmico, dirigido por Al-Baghdadi.

Eu detalho a história do Estado Islâmico no livro que escrevi e que deve ser publicado no próximo ano, segundo a editora.

Aqui vai um breve resumo. O Estado Islâmico foi fundado por um jordaniano chamado Abu al-Zarqawi, que se converteu ao islamismo fundamentalista, quando estava preso acusado de tentativa de estupro e porte de drogas. Ele criou um grupo que depois declarou apoio a al-Qaeda, chamado al-Qaeda do Iraque (AQI). Os Estados Unidos ofereciam a mesma quantia de recompensa por Al-Zarqawi e por bin-Laden. Mas ele morreu em 2006. Em 2010, al-Baghdadi assumiu o poder do grupo. Em 2011, por divergências internas, o grupo se separou da al-Qaeda. Em 2013, foi renomeado para Estado Islâmico e hoje em dia o Estado Islâmico é o grupo terrorista de maior sucesso desde as Cruzadas, pode-se dizer, pois conseguiu vasto território e poder financeiro-militar. Al-Baghdadi se declarou califa (sucessor de Maomé) e exige que todos os muçulmanos do mundo se sujeitem a ele.

Esse sucesso do Estado Islâmico o fez desprezar a al-Qaeda e até a matar um emissário da al-Qaeda que foi negociar. Assim, não é de se estranhar que a al-Qaeda esteja agora em guerra com o Estado Islâmico.

Apesar da briga interna, o Ocidente não deve "pedir pipoca" e ficar só assistindo, achando que eles se auto-destruirão, pois isso nunca aconteceu na história da humanidade, eles continuam tendo inimigos comuns: cristãos, judeus, pagãos, gays e apóstatas.

Al Qaeda Leader Al-Zawahiri Declares War on ISIS 'Caliph' Al-Baghdadi

By JAMES GORDON MEEK


Just ahead of the fourteenth anniversary of al Qaeda's 9/11 attacks on the U.S., the leader of the terrorist group took aim in an angry speech at a mortal enemy -- but not American “crusaders” this time. Rather, the object of his tirade was the leader of ISIS in a declaration of war that will “irreconcilably” divide the two terror groups in a way the U.S. may be able to exploit, experts say.
Ayman al-Zawahiri, the Egyptian doctor who replaced Osama bin Laden as the head of al Qaeda four years ago, in a new audio message accused ISIS top leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi of “sedition” and insisted the Iraqi terrorist recluse was not the leader of all Muslims and militant jihad as “caliph” of the Islamic State, as al-Baghdadi had claimed 14 months ago in a Mosul mosque.
“It’s pretty interesting,” said former National Counterterrorism Center Director Matthew Olsen. “Zawahiri until now has not been willing to openly condemn Baghdadi and ISIS. It highlights how deep the division is between al Qaeda leadership and ISIS. It suggests that the differences are irreconcilable.”
Had ISIS and al Qaeda realigned by joining forces, it “would be terrible,” said Olsen, an ABC News contributor.
That division -- now formally declared by the highest ranking official of the group that slaughtered almost 3,000 Americans 14 years ago in multi-pronged aviation attacks -- could provide an opening that American counter-terrorism operatives could find a way to exploit, he added.
Olsen said the U.S. could use misinformation to further pit the two jihadi menaces against each other and encourage the series of gunfights and assassinations each has waged against the other -- like when ISIS reportedly killed a top Zawahiri emissary trying to broker a ceasefire between the fighters in Syria in February 2014.
The fledgling franchise in Afghanistan and Pakistan, known as IS Khorasan Province, “has been fighting non-stop” with the Taliban and al Qaeda there, a counter-terrorism official told ABC News. “Fighting each other makes our job easier,” said the official in Afghanistan.
In the new audio tape, which was released online Wednesday and accompanied by a still image or al-Zawahiri and text of his speech, the al Qaeda leader appeared to confirm that he had not directly addressed infighting among the jihadis of ISIS and al Qaeda’s Syrian wing, Jabhat al-Nusra or the al Nusra Front, for fear of legitimizing ISIS.
ISIS, formerly the al Qaeda branch in Iraq, split from the larger group two years ago. In the tape, al-Zawahiri complained that Baghdadi had ignored Muslims suffering in Gaza and in Pakistan.
“We preferred to respond with as little as possible, out of our concern to extinguish the fire of sedition,” Zawahiri explained, “but Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi and his brothers did not leave us a choice, for they have demanded that all the mujahideen reject their confirmed pledges of allegiance, and to pledge allegiance to them for what they claim of a caliphate.”
“Everyone was surprised” by Baghdadi’s declaration anointing himself the fourth caliph in Islamic history, Zawahiri remarked, saying al-Baghdadi had done this “without consulting the Muslims.”
Al-Zawahiri's sour grapes speech, however, appeared to have been recorded last spring, analysts said, and reiterated past pledges of loyalty to Taliban leader Mullah Omar, who recently was confirmed dead by the Taliban. That appeared to mark a rare misstep for al Qaeda and al-Zawahiri, who once was able to leak his videotaped response to news events as quickly as one week later, but who now is in hiding with a $25 million U.S. bounty on his head.
Nicholas Palarino, a recently retired senior congressional counter-terrorism adviser who teaches about terrorism at Georgetown University, said al-Zawahiri being forced to call out al-Baghdadi weakens the power of both al Qaeda and ISIS and may offer Arab governments a window of opportunity to drive a wedge between the jihadi groups and those who are flocking to fight in Syria and Iraq.
“Moderate Muslims need to exploit this rift. The leaders of Jordan, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia and Egypt can explain the differences between these two groups to the world’s Muslims,” Palarino said.
Though it didn't foresee the rise of ISIS, former CIA Director Michael Hayden said the intelligence community had predicted a rift in al Qaeda emerging after bin Laden's death -- something like what's happening now between ISIS and al Qaeda, which the U.S. could use to its advantage.
"It would be a good idea to do so. We always thought that the death of bin Laden could create a rift between the Egyptians and the other Arabs inside al Qaeda since Zawahiri was an Egyptian. Seems to have played out," former CIA Director Michael Hayden told ABC News.
When it comes to exploiting the rift between two deadly extremist groups, however, Hayden cautioned, "You need to be careful."

Bom Dia do Senhor, Pedro.

Sinceramente? Não confio muito nisso. Será que é o velho jogo do "policial bom e policial mau"? Considerando que essa gente já domina técnicas psicológicas da desinformação acho pouco provável que eles estejam sendo sinceros.
Não seria o caso do conflito ora entre eles serem mais por poder? A postagem de hoje é boa, pois ao menos você nos informa sobre as origens do EI. Vou aguardar rezando pelo seu livro e assim que chegar quero ser um dos primeiros a comprar.

Encerro com o coração perturbado por tão terrível realidade acontecendo.

Abraços.

Grande abraço,
