Just as Democrat after Democrat is claiming that Iraq is "just a civil war," the Islamic State of Iraq does their part to overreach and throw that carefully guarded Democratic canard into a bit of flux. The release of this jihadi video coming on the heels of the President's speech, the timing could not be worse for the Democrats - at least if it were to get any play in the MSM. The latest from the jihadis currently fighting the "civil war" in Iraq:
Al Qaeda has a new opening graphic for its propaganda tapes: the U.S. Capitol under "attack."Read the entire story here. Video screen shot by ABC.
"The Islamic State of Iraq...March Toward Washington" reads the headline in English superimposed over a digitally created scene of the U.S. Capitol under attack in the introductory sequence of one tape released on the Internet this week.
Another from al Qaeda's "as Sahab" production arm announces "Holocaust of the Americans in the Land of Khorasan" and shows an image of the U.S. Capitol to introduce a short clip of al Qaeda fighters.
"This is a disturbing new trend," says Laura Mansfield, an Arabic expert who monitors jihadi videos on the Internet.
"Recall that in January 2006, Osama Bin Laden said that plans for attacks in the U.S. were in progress," Mansfield told the Blotter on ABCNews.com. "It may be that this new imagery is designed to motivate terrorist activity in the U.S., but it is certainly intended as a recruiting tool and perhaps intended to reassure al Qaeda's jihadi followers they haven't forgotten their goal of an al Qaeda attack on Washington, D.C.," she said.

No personal attacks on my site. Get some class and talk with some reason or get deleted.
But we don't have to worry about national security, right? **snerk**
The Dhimmicrats should be on the decline politically, but the media keep a lot of info from the public. Remember how the media ridiculed The Fort Dix Six?
