Islamists' message to Israel at New York City rally: "The mushroom cloud is on its way!"by Steven Emerson
Investigative Project on Terrorism (IPT) Newswire - April 21, 2006 : The Queens-based Islamic Thinkers Society (ITS) held a rally yesterday outside of the Israeli Consulate in Manhattan. Members of the Islamic Thinkers Society are easily identified by their Khilafah flags and provocative signs as well as rhetoric against homosexuals, Jews, Christians, Danes and others, depending on the hot button issue at the moment. Yesterday's rally was held in response to Monday's Tel Aviv bombing that killed 9 and injured scores. While carrying signs including "Islam will Dominate" with a picture of an Islamic flag over the White House, the small but loud group of men chanted threatening slogans (video of the rally will be posted on the Counterterrorism Blog soon): Excerpts: Leader (in Arabic): With our blood and our lives we will liberate al Aqsa! Israeli Zionists, What do you say? Zionists, Zionists You will pay! The Wrath of Allah is on its way! We are not your average Muslims, We are the Muslims of Was al Sunnah We will not accept the United Nations, they are the criminals themselves Israel won't last long… Indeed, Allah will repeat the Holocaust right on the soil of Israel * * * We know many government services are watching us Islam will dominate the world * * * -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Islamic Thinkers Society is an offshoot, at least ideologically, of London's Al-Muhajiroun, a group that celebrated the 9/11 attacks, referring to the hijackers as "the Magnificent 19," and posting a burning picture of the Capitol on its website. The Islamic Thinkers Society (ITS) addresses the crackdown by the British authorities on Al Muhajiroun and its counterparts on the ITS website: "The Jews and Christians will never be pleased with you until you follow their religion [or ideology]."
