COMMENT: In numer­ous pro­grams, we have dis­cussed the Under­ground Reich’s use of Al Qae­da and oth­er Mus­lim Broth­er­hood and Arab allies as proxy war­riors against the Unit­ed States.

Some of those pro­grams are: FTR #‘s 396, 395, 404, 450, 527, 537.

We have also spo­ken of Osama bin Laden’s goal of under­min­ing the U.S. econ­o­my through his ter­ror pro­gram. FTR #560 is among the pro­grams dis­cussing that.

A recent pro­nounce­ment by bin Laden’s suc­ces­sor Ayman Al Zawahiri is more than a lit­tle inter­est­ing. We can see his pro­posed strat­e­gy of advis­ing Mus­lims to invest in cur­ren­cies oth­er than the dol­lar and advis­ing them not to pur­chase Amer­i­can goods as both a strat­e­gy to under­mine the Unit­ed States, per se, and in terms of a long term strat­e­gy of help­ing to ele­vate Ger­many eco­nom­i­cal­ly.

“Al-Qae­da Chief Calls for Attacks on US in 9/11 Speech to Fol­low­ers” by Ruth Sher­lock; The Tele­graph [UK]; 9/13/2013.

EXCERPT: In an audio mes­sage released on Fri­day, two days after the anniver­sary of Sep­tem­ber 11th, Ayman al-Zawahiri said Amer­i­ca was not a “myth­ic pow­er” and that it could be defeat­ed even through small-scale strikes by “one broth­er or a few of the broth­ers”.

“We should bleed Amer­i­ca eco­nom­i­cal­ly by pro­vok­ing it to con­tin­ue in its mas­sive expen­di­ture on its secu­ri­ty, for the weak point of Amer­i­ca is its econ­o­my, which has already begun to stag­ger due to the mil­i­tary and secu­ri­ty expen­di­ture,” he said, accord­ing to SITE, a jihadist mon­i­tor­ing group. “Amer­i­ca is not a myth­ic pow­er and the Amer­i­cans, after all, are humans who can be defeat­ed, felled and pun­ished.”

Zawahiri urged the Islam­ic world to “aban­don the dol­lar and replace it with a cur­ren­cy of oth­er coun­tries that are not tak­ing part in the aggres­sion against us”. He also said that Mus­lims should refuse to buy goods from Amer­i­ca and its allies, as such spend­ing only helped to fund US mil­i­tary action in Mus­lim lands.

As well as mount­ing small, “dis­parate” assaults, Zawahiri urged fel­low mem­bers of his extrem­ist group to “watch and wait” and seize any oppor­tu­ni­ty to con­duct a large strike against the US, sim­i­lar to the 9/11 attack that killed almost 3000 peo­ple. . . .
