Al Qaeda's American Flack in New Video
By James Gordon Meek
Osama Bin Laden's Jewish-American mouthpiece Adam Yahiye Gadahn, aka Adam Pearlman, aka "Azzam al-Amriki," is making a new appearance on video at this hour to threaten more attacks, which this century's "Tokyo Rose" promises will make America forget 9/11.
The short video, "Legitimate Demands," was expected for several hours. A teaser posted on jihadist websites by Al Qaeda's As-Sahab propaganda wing was caught by several private counterterrorism outfits, including the SITE Institute, IntelCenter and Laura Mansfield's blog.
Gadahn, 28, of California, was secretly indicted in Los Angeles sometime after the Sept. 11 attacks for offering material support to terrorism. Last fall, a superseding indictment charged him with committing treason.
UPDATE: According to the SITE Institute, Gadahn's nearly eight-minute video includes a threat that America must pull out of the Middle East and quit meddling in the Muslim world or the U.S. "will --- Allah willing --- experience things which will make you forget all about the horrors of September 11th, Afghanistan, Iraq and Virginia Tech."
