From the AP:

ISLAMABAD, March 8 (AP) – (Kyodo)—An America-born al-Qaida member, Adam Gadahn, wanted in the United States, has been captured in Karachi in southern Pakistan, security officials said Sunday.

Gadahn was arrested during a search operation in the vicinity of the Sohrab Goth area in the major Pakistani port city, the officials said.

Gadahn has appeared in more than half a dozen al-Qaida videos, taunting and threatening the West and calling for its destruction, according to the Associated Press.

A U.S. court charged Gadahn with treason in 2006, making him the first American to face such a charge in more than 50 years, according to the AP.

We’ve been hearing conflicting reports about this for a few days now, but this sounds more definitive. Let’s keep our fingers crossed.

Read Al-Qaida’s New Book

On June 30, a terrorist named Murasil al-Fajr posted a 179-page book on a well known Jihadi website. The book was written by Abu-Yahya al-Libi (pictured above) with an introduction by Bin Laden’s #2 Ayman al-Zawahiri.

The book titled, “Guidance On The Ruling Of The Muslim Spy” is meant to provide other terrorists with religious guidance on the thorny issue of Muslim spies.

What Al-Libi lays out is a startling look at just how devastating Bush’s anti-terror policies have been.

Here are some of the highlights:

“The spies… were sent to penetrate the ranks of the Muslims generally, and the mujahidin specifically, and [they] spread all over the lands like locusts.”

“The spies are busy day and night carrying out their duties in an organized and secret manner… How many heroic leaders have been kidnapped at their hands? How many major mujahidin were surprised to be imprisoned or traced? Even the military and financial supply roads of the mujahidin, which are far from the enemy’s surveillance, were found by the spies.”

Western spies are found under every conceivable cover, al-Libi wrote. “They have among them old hunchbacked men who cannot even walk, strong young men, weak women inside their house, young girls, and even children who did not reach puberty yet. The spy might be a doctor, nurse, engineer, student, preacher, scholar, runner, or a taxi driver. The spy can be anyone….”

“The occupation armies completely rely on recruiting spies and informants from the Muslim lands they usurped and conquered… The spy lives among Muslims, being one of them: living their life, wearing their dress, eating what they eat… Therefore, he can access what the armed soldiers of the occupation cannot put hands on.”

Al-Libi goes on to say he would rather not write about this stuff, but feels obliged to because it’s such a huge problem. He writes that the issue of Western spies infiltrating their organizations must be discussed and can no longer be avoided.

“Taking into consideration the importance of the issue and the vital need to clarify its details, I found myself obliged to write about it…the issue cannot be delayed anymore.”

“This issue cannot be solved by hiding or eliminated by neglecting. It cannot be stopped if we don’t talk about it because its wickedness is overwhelming, the situation is dangerous, the damage is massive, the war fires are growing.”

The book is 88-pages after being translated into English and offers a fascinating look into the mind of the enemy. Their belief that killing Americans and other infidels is “God’s work” continues to make radical Islam the most serious threat to America.

Contrary to what President Obama says about Bush’s policies making America “less safe”, this book and mountains of other evidence show otherwise. President Bush understood that his job was not to make the whole world like us, but rather to make our enemies fear us.

Hunting down the terrorists like dogs, killing them, and/or extracting information from them by any means necessary was and is the best strategy for keeping America safe.

Video: 9/11 Hijacker Ziad Jarrah Being Coached By His Al-Qaida Handlers

Take a look at this tape of 9/11 hijacker Ziad Jarrah. During the recording of his martyrdom tape which was supposed to be his last words — he can’t even keep a straight face. He recorded his last words more than a year before the 9/11 attacks.

I just can’t get over the fact that Jarrah and the rest of the hijackers lived among us for years before they committed their atrocity. Think about the kind of discipline it took to know they were in this country for a single purpose — to kill as many Americans as they could. Every single day they spent on American soil was in preparation for the 9/11 attacks.

So when you hear liberals downplaying the threat from Al-Qaida, just think about the dedication and the commitment those hijackers had to seeing us all dead.
