Gadahn is an excellent arguement for agressive interrogation and/or disappearence. Converts are always the most fanatical and I'm quite certain that this cretin would be very happy to take out as many of his fellow citizens as possible.
Probably in a very blue city.

"He said a U.S. pullout from Iraq alone would not do."
Which is exactly why we need to stay there as long as possible.
al-Qaeda isn't a nation, government or even a reputable organization. It's a bunch of fanatical terrorists intent of reshaping the entire world. We need to eliminate every damned one of them.
IT's really too bad Reagan helped drive the Soviets out of Afghanistan. Had the Soviets prevailed there, al-Qaeda would not exist today. I'm certain the Soviet Union still would have fallen - it just would have taken a bit longer.
But I still say, on most issues: Reagan was right ;)

The Barbary wars
Before 1776 US merchant ships could do business within the Islamic Ottoman Empire.
After our Independence, and France's revolution, the tributes paid by England and France were no longer extended to US merchant ships.
1785, when the Dey of Algiers took two American ships hostage and demanded US$60,000 in ransom for their crews. Then-ambassador to France Thomas Jefferson argued that conceding the ransom would only encourage more attacks. His objections fell on the deaf ears of an inexperienced American government too riven with domestic discord to make a strong show of force overseas. The U.S. paid Algiers the ransom, and continued to pay up to $1 million per year over the next 15 years for the safe passage of American ships or the return of American hostages. Payments in ransom and tribute to the privateering states amounted to 20 percent of United States government annual revenues in 1800.

In 1786 Jefferson and John Adams went to negotiate with Tripoli's envoy to London, Ambassador Sidi Haji Abdrahaman or (Sidi Haji Abdul Rahman Adja). They asked him by what right he extorted money and took slaves. Jefferson reported to Secretary of State John Jay, and to the Congress:
"The ambassador answered us that [the right] was founded on the Laws of the Prophet (Mohammed), that it was written in their Koran, that all nations who should not have answered their authority were sinners, that it was their right and duty to make war upon them wherever they could be found, and to make slaves of all they could take as prisoners, and that every Mussulman (or Muslim) who should be slain in battle was sure to go to heaven."

June 10, 1797 The Treaty with Tripoli was signed.
Article 11, reads:
"As the Government of the United States of America is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion; as it has in itself no character of enmity against the laws, religion, or tranquillity, of Mussulmen; and, as the said States never entered into any war, or act of hostility against any Mahometan nation, it is declared by the parties, that no pretext arising from religious opinions, shall ever produce an interruption of the harmony existing between the two countries."

In October of 1803 the USS Philadelphia ran aground in battle. Her crew where captured and held hostage. In November of 1804 she was recaptured and burned to the waterline by a group of US volunteers.
It was around this time when US Marines wore a heavy leather collar to protect from being beheaded by sabers (LeatherNeck).

From The Cato Institute:
"In some cases, support for Jewish admission to and statehood in Palestine may have had another domestic political angle. That support sidestepped the sensitive issue of U.S. immigration quotas, which had kept European Jews out of the United States since the 1920s and had left them at the mercy of the Nazis. In other words, support for Zionism may have been a convenient way for people who did not want Jews to come to the United States to avoid appearing anti-Semitic. American classical liberals and others, including the American Council for Judaism, opposed the quotas, and it is probable that many of the refugees, given the option, would have preferred to come to the United States.(54)"

This would be terrorist needs to realize that the Qu'ran can't always be taken as literal. Like when it says in 18:86 that the sun was found where it sets, in a place of murky water. Or, when it says that the sun orbits the earth with the moon (S 14:33) and the earth being stationary (S 27:61), which of course, COULD be perceived as making it sound like Qu'ran is infering that the earth is flat. Since it's supposed to be allegorical here with these scriptures, maybe this guy can see OTHER Qu'ranic scriptures as allegorical as well, like the ones that tell Muslims to either convert or kill infidels?
