A Call for Jihad to Stop the Aggression against Gaza", was posted on websites on Wednesday.
Al-Qaida chief Osama bin Laden in a message- perfectly timed to coincide with the Obama inauguration and the Israeli offensive in Gaza- urged Muslims to launch a jihad against Israel and condemned Arab governments as allies of the Jewish state. The use of the term Crusader-Zionist alliance will further ignite tensions between Christians and Muslims and is geared to inflame Muslim passions to even greater heights. The following are some of the key points of the message purporting to come from bin Laden.
President Bush, the message said, was leaving his successor with a "heavy inheritance." Referring to Barack Obama the speaker said: "If he withdraws from the war, it is a military defeat. If he continues, he drowns in economic crisis." Here bin Laden is taunting the US.

"Our brothers in Palestine, you have suffered a lot.... the Muslims sympathise with you in what they see and hear. We, the mujahideen, sympathise with you also..We are with you and we will not let you down. Our fate is tied to yours in fighting the Crusader-Zionist coalition, in fighting until victory or martyrdom.
There is only one strong way to bring the return of Al-Aqsa and Palestine, and that is jihad in the path of God (a reference to the revered Al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem). The duty is to urge people to jihad and to enlist the youth into jihad brigades....Muslim nation, you are capable of defeating the Zionist entity with your popular capabilities and your great hidden strength — without the support of (Arab) leaders and despite the fact that most of (the leaders) stand in the barracks of the Crusader-Zionist alliance.
God has bestowed us with the patience to continue the path of jihad for another seven years, and seven and seven years..The question is, can America continue its war with us for several more decades to come? Reports and evidence would suggest otherwise.."

Now this is interesting. The "mujahideen." We supplied them to run the Soviets out of Afghanistan. That is unusual and its possible that young American working with Bin Laden wrote the message.
I had an individual come to my blog the other day and was telling me something interesting about Hamas. It was a term Hamas called, "Pyrrhic loss" a term referring to King Pyrrhic fighting the Romans.
He said that it did not matter to Hamas who dies or is killed as long as when it is over [all the enemy dead] one member of Hamas is alive. Then they can clain victory.
Unlike Masada where the Jews took the Roman victory away by commiting mass suicide.
Your comments about Hamas remind me of Mao Tse-tung. When he was told that a large number of Chinese would be killed in a nuclear war,Mao replied that if 350 million Chinese were killed another 350 million would survive.(The population of China was 700 million then). Never heard of the expression "Pyrrhic loss". Just shows how fanatics think. It is frightening
