American al Qaeda: U.S. should convert to Islam

POSTED: 8:35 p.m. EDT, September 2, 2006

ISLAMABAD, Pakistan (CNN) -- A new videotape has surfaced featuring Osama bin Laden's second-in-command, Ayman al-Zawahiri, and an American member of al Qaeda wanted by the FBI, according to a counterterrorism expert.

The tape, called "Invitation to Islam," runs 48 minutes, expert Laura Mansfield said. Al-Zawahiri speaks for about 4 minutes on the tape, and the American narrates the rest.

Californian Adam Gadahn, wearing a white robe and turban, introduces the message by calling on Westerners to convert. (Watch Gadahn accuse President Bush of not caring about U.S. troops -- 5:42)

Gadahn says that even Americans working with President Bush and British Prime Minister Tony Blair are invited to embrace Islam, but they should hurry.

"We invite all Americans and believers to Islam, whatever their role and status in Bush and Blair's world order," Gadahn says. "Decide today, because today could be your last day."

Don't dawdle, time is running out!

"Mansfield, who is a writer and corporate adviser on the Middle East, Islam and terrorism, said the time reference could indicate an attack is near. Muslims believe that non-believers should be given a chance to convert before they are attacked, Mansfield said.

"This may well be a warning," she said."
 
I think they should have put more effort into market research and focus groups before starting this sales campaign.
 
The same target audience that likes to learn Klingon, by the looks of Mr Pearlman.

The guy who runs the counterterrorism blog, who was mentioned by name in that video along with some other evil Islamaphobes once described him as "a pudgy, long haired american kid who appears to be locked in a desperate loosing struggle to grow a beard". He also give props to his friends Robert Fisk and George Galloway.

What celebrities are on the infomercial? It has to be Star Jones or better, to get me to convert.
 
This is not new, by the way. The founder of the religion of Peace, peace be upon him, send similar "convert or die" letters to the leaders of the worlds he knew (e.g., the rulers of the Byzantine and Persian kingdoms). Both ignored him.

I don't know who those people are, but I do know that they ain't Star Jones. Sorry Islam, but unless you can get better celebrities, it's no deal. Here's a hint, try all those washed up losers who commentate on VH1's "I Love The _____" decade shows. They'll do anything for money. And those Nelson twins? They look like pretty Ellen Degeneresses to me. They really do. Freaky. Their sister was the nun on "Father Dowling Mysteries" which was a sucky TV show, but the books are quite good.

Sorry. My stream of consciousness has a few cataracts in it.

Gosh and to think I would have been satisfied with Slim Whitman, John Murtha and an I AM AN APPEASER button. ;)
 
I really wish it was my last chance. Then I wouldn't ever have to deal with an attempted conversion again.

But I have a feeling it's more like a sales pitch, "This is your last chance to receive this offer!" (until next week)

There's a furniture store here that advertises "once-in-a-lifetime" sales every single weekend. It's always "the warehouse is closing!" or "we're cutting our inventory!" or "we're closing the location!" That's 52 amazing unique unbelievable never-to-be-repeated sales per year.
 
I'm going for it.

He conviniced me. After listening to his whole speech I want nothing more than to follow him and his ilk.

I guess you're not a fan of "Whose Line Is It Anyway?" (U.S. version). They often do a great takeoff on infomercials.

There's one near here too that does a similar thing. Pathetic.

If they were giving away electronic devices I'd have thought it would have to be a conversion calculator.

So is the timing of this supposed to be a warning - as opposed to helpful advice - based on the 5th anniversary of 9/11 coming up?
