The leader of the Islamic mass murderers
who perpetrated the May 29 atrocities at Khobar was interviewed for an
Al Qaeda internet "journal." MEMRI's translation is a chilling look at
the religion-soaked brutality of these savages: Commander of the Khobar
Terrorist Squad Tells the Story of the Operation.
"We turned to the third site, which
was the most fortified center of all the compounds. Our plan was to remain
in the car until we were alongside the American Hummer. When we were next
to it, the brothers appeared from the windows [of the car] and began shouting
'Allah Akbar,' and shooting them. And I saw the skull of the soldier standing
behind the machine gun explode before my eyes. Allah be praised. I think
the driver was also killed.
"It was our [original] plan to enter
through the exit gate, and immediately upon entering I would blow up the
car amongst them [the guards], while the brothers will go on to charge
[into the compound].
"As soon as we arrived, we passed
the Hummers and exchanged fire with them. At one of the gates, Allah brought
to us a security guard, whom we had seen in the street. We ordered him
to open the gate and thus we did not need to blow up the car.
"Brother Nimr swaggered around inside
the compound. Then we drove on the main road inside the compound. The compound
is very big indeed, and its area spreads out over a number of kilometers,
and in it there are a number of compounds.
"We went to one of the buildings.
Brother Nimr, may Allah's mercy be upon him, shoved the door until it opened.
We entered and in front of us stood many people. We asked them their religion,
and for identification documents. We used this time for Da'wa [preaching
Islam], and for enlightening the people about our goal. We spoke with many
of them.
"At the same time, we found a Swedish
infidel. Brother Nimr cut off his head, and put it at the gate [of the
building] so that it would be seen by all those entering and exiting.
"We continued in the search for
the infidels, and we slit the throats of those we found among them. At
the same time, we heard the sound of the patrols and the gathering [of
the security personnel] outside. These cowards did not dare to enter. About
45 minutes or an hour had passed since the beginning of the operation.
"We began to comb the site looking
for infidels. We found Philipino Christians. We cut their throats and dedicated
them to our brothers the Mujahideen in the Philippines. [Likewise], we
found Hindu engineers and we cut their throats too, Allah be praised. That
same day, we purged Muhammad's land of many Christians and polytheists.
"Afterwards, we turned to the hotel.
We entered and found a restaurant, where we ate breakfast and rested a
while. Then we went up to the next floor, found several Hindu dogs, and
cut their throats. I told the brothers to leave them on the stairs so the
troops of the Taghut would see them when they burst in, and be terror-stricken.
[3] But it seems I thought too well of these cowards, because they did
not enter [the hotel] until after we had left.
"We utilized the time for [teaching]
the Koran to the Muslims who remained. We taught them how to read [Surat]
Al-Fatiha properly. They were amazed by us, [and said], 'How are you able
to do this in such an inflamed atmosphere?' Thanks be to Allah for enabling
us to do so.
"The Indian Muslims told us that
their manager was a vile Hindu who did not permit them to pray, and that
he would arrive shortly. When [the manager] arrived, we verified his religion
by means of his identifying documents, and we kept him with us for a short
time.
"Then I phoned Al-Jazeera television,
and they conducted an interview with us, that they did not release. I told
them I was speaking with them from the compound, and that only the infidels
were our targets.
"As soon as we entered, we encountered
the car of a Briton, the investment director of the company, whom Allah
had sent to his death. He is the one whose mobile phone on the seat of
his car, with the blood on it, they kept showing [on television]. We left
him in the street.
"We went out, and drove our car.
We had tied the infidel by one leg [behind the car]. We left the company
[compound] and met the patrols. The first to arrive was the jeep of a patrol,
with one soldier, and we killed him. With the rest we exchanged fire, and
we got through.
"Allah be thanked, we had learned
more than one route to the second site. When the patrols blocked the way,
[we] had no chance of returning by the same route, so we went another way
- via the coast, and then via Khobar, that is, the Damam highway - a distance
of four kilometers.
"The infidel's clothing was torn
to shreds, and he was naked in the street. The street was full of people,
as this was during work hours, and everyone watched the infidel being dragged,
praise and gratitude be to Allah.
"When we arrived at one of the bridges,
we encountered an ambush of jeeps of theTawaghitdogs [i.e. Saudi government
troops] and the guards of the Americans, and we exchanged fire with them.
When we crossed the bridge, the rope [by which the Briton was tied] snapped
and the body of the infidel fell in the middle of the intersection, between
the four stop signs, and everyone who was stopped at the stop signs saw
the infidel on the day that he fell from the top of the bridge.
"The brothers had exchanged fire
with the patrols, all the while shouting, 'Allah Akbar,' and 'There is
no God but Allah.'"
