Podcast appearances and mentions of al qaeda

On Thursday's Mark Levin Show, Iran's nuclear ambitions and ballistic missile development pose an existential threat to Israel and American civilization, which cannot be ignored. Israel, possibly with U.S. assistance, will take military action to neutralize this threat, as Iran will not go away on its own. Iran's actions, including attacks via proxies and American casualties, demand a decisive military response, which is self-defense rather than nation-building. These radical Democrats, fifth-columnists, and isolationists lack any strategy and moral clarity. Also, the people of Israel are never discussed by the media. They face severe challenges every day, especially in Tel Aviv, where ballistic missiles from Iran target hospitals and public areas, forcing families into bomb shelters. They are in constant fear with a disrupted quality of life. Media outlets ignore these struggles and ignore the regime's history of killing and maiming American soldiers. Later, Zuhdi Jasser calls in and addresses the mindset of the isolationists and fifth columnists who deliberately ignore the existential threat posed by Iran's theocratic regime and its proxies like Hezbollah and the Houthis. He emphasizes that these groups are driven by a radical theology that glorifies suicide bombing, chaos, and the targeting of non-combatants, with the ultimate goal of triggering an apocalyptic scenario tied to the return of the 12th Imam. Jasser asserts that Iran's uranium enrichment is clearly aimed at developing nuclear weapons, not peaceful purposes, and warns that the regime would use such weapons, likening its leadership to a cult willing to commit national fratricide. Finally, Sayyid Qutb's book Milestones, promotes pure Islam and strict shariah, rejecting Western values and most modern Muslims as ignorant (jahiliyyah). Groups like CAIR, ISNA, ICNA, MSA, and MPAC dismiss devout Muslims who oppose their views. Qutb's ideas fuel sectarian violence and terrorism by groups like Hamas and al-Qaida, and states like Iran, which pursues nuclear weapons through deception (taqiyya). Western appeasement fails to counter this clash with democratic values. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

In this explosive two-part exposé, Tara and Lee uncover how U.S. foreign policy has been hijacked by a shadow agenda—funding and enabling terrorist regimes like the Taliban and al Qaeda while ignoring or enriching true threats like Iran and China. From nuclear escalation and EMP attack plans to bioweapons targeting America's food supply, the hosts lay bare the high stakes of refusing to confront our real enemies. Meanwhile, the media pushes distraction campaigns, including climate hysteria, even as NASA data shows polar ice sheets thickening at record rates. It's a scathing indictment of misplaced priorities, government deception, and the cost of fighting wars we created while the real ones loom.

Tara exposes the dangerous consequences of U.S. foreign and domestic policy, arguing that America has spent decades propping up "fake enemies" like the Taliban and al Qaeda through agencies like USAID while ignoring or funding the very regimes that seek to destroy us—Iran and China. She details U.S. complicity in arming terrorists, Iran's deadly attacks on Americans, and how real enemies are enriched while innocent lives are lost. Plus, a major climate cover-up: record-breaking ice growth at both poles goes unreported as media outlets cling to the global warming narrative. This episode connects the dots between global deception, political corruption, and a public being dangerously misled.

Usama Dakdok is the Founder of the Straight Way of Grace Ministry. He is the speaker on the daily radio broadcast Revealing the Truth About Islam. It has become a common thing for Israelis to be woken by sirens. This morning was no exception. But this time there is shock as they learned that one of the country's major hospitals was hit by a missile from Iran. Additional sites were hit in Tel Aviv. We understand it was the hospital's old surgical building that suffered damage. CBN reported that one of the doctors indicated just yesterday that they had evacuated the old surgical building that took a direct hit. He said, "It's a great miracle." Israel's Prime Minister is vowing that the dictators in Tehran will pay "the full price." Tehran is calling for an Islamic Army to wage war on Israel. The Council on American Islamic Relations is demanding that President Trump halt U.S. weapons transfers to Israel. CAIR-NJ is condemning Israel for what they call "an unprovoked attack on Iran." The Al-Qaeda leader is calling upon Muslims to assassinate President Trump and other high-ranking officials. Earlier this month a Muslim in Boulder, CO was suspected of firebombing a group of pro-Israel protestors leaving 15 injured. He is an Egyptian national. And as reported recently on JihadWatch.org, The Council on American-Islamic Relations Director Nihad Awad is hosting training sessions to help citizens spot ICE agents and alert mobs to target them. One anti-ICE protestor is calling out "Allahu-akbar." Pew Research reported earlier this month that on a global basis, Islam is growing faster than all other religions. What's going on? Haven't we been forewarned this would happen?

On today's episode, Andy is joined by Bill Roggio—senior fellow at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies and editor of The Long War Journal—for a wide-ranging conversation on national security, starting with the complexities of firearm ownership in the U.S. and shifting into an in-depth analysis of the global jihadist threat. They trace the evolution of groups like the Taliban and al-Qaeda, examining how these networks have resurged in the wake of the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan. The discussion dives into U.S. military strategy, missteps in the War on Terror, and the enduring ideological mindset of jihadist fighters. Together, they unpack what went wrong, what the media often overlooks, and why public awareness of these threats is more important than ever.

Join us as we welcome Jeremy D. Baker, former Army counterintelligence agent, Afghanistan combat veteran and author of the novel The Guilty Sleep, a thriller that draws on Jeremy's personal experiences as a combat veteran struggling to overcome PTSD. In 2000, after acing his Army entrance exam, 20-year-old college dropout Jeremy was told by his recruiter that he could pick any specialty he wanted. He chose counterintelligence because he thought it sounded cool. A year later, in the wake of 9/11, that choice proved fateful. As a soldier with the 202nd Military Intelligence Battalion, he was sent to Afghanistan in the first wave of US troops tasked with finding Osama Bin Laden, destroying al-Qaeda, and ousting the Taliban. Operating in and around Kandahar, he was the CI assigned to the 19th Special Forces Group of Green Berets, a number of whom were older and had served tours in Vietnam. Little did Jeremy know the extent to which his time in Afghanistan would stay with him and shape his life. With Jeremy as our guide, we'll learn what ‘counterintelligence' looked like early on in Afghanistan, what it was like working with Green Berets who'd served in Vietnam, the combat situations they encountered and how our 2021 withdrawal from Afghanistan affected him. Jeremy will also share his experiences overcoming PTSD, utilizing the CERT method, how writing helped him heal and why the fall of Afghanistan moved him to write The Guilty Sleep, the fictional story of Afghanistan veteran Dexter Grant who is broke, reeling from PTSD, and on the verge of divorce when he's approached by his old Army buddies to help rescue their former interpreter, the man who once saved Dex's life. Lee Childs described The Guilty Sleep as being “shot-thru with hard-won authenticity and deep humanity” and USMC veteran of Iraq and Afghanistan Elliot Ackerman praised it as cutting “sharp and deep.” The Guilty Sleep (Diversion Books) is available online at all major booksellers.

REVIEW: Colleague Ahmad Sharawi of FDD confirms that the Iraqi militias condemn al-Sharaa, the self-named president of Syria, for his al-Qaeda joined violence in Iraq following the fall of Saddam Hussein. More. 1924 BAGHDAD

While people argue about what is the right or wrong thing to do in regard to Iran and Israel, the narrative is changing quicker than anyone can keep up with. Now Israel's PM says: “We will not have a second holocaust,” as if this constant invocation of trauma justifies endless wars. The bottom line is this: the intelligence agencies of the US-Britain-Israel were instrumental in establishing terrorism going back to the Soviet-Afghan War with the Mujahideen, al-Qaeda, and ISIS, not to mention the overthrowing of the 1953 Iranian government and the same thing in the 1970s; in almost every case facilitating, creating power vacuums, sparking civil war, and the like to create radical Islam in its modern context. The US in particular has financed and armed both Israel and Iran, just as Israel propped up Hamas and continues to arm terrorist groups. The bottom line is also this: the Koran instructs Muslims to never commit suicide and to never engage in usury. With eyes on these facts, something else is also missing from the equation. From Afghanistan and Iraq to Syria, Libya, and Iran, these conflicts are all aligned directly with Jewish holy days, and thus act as blood sacrifices to their tribal god, which rely on Christian and Muslim blood. The pushers of the incessant lies of WMDs and the “bomb” are also physical manifestations of demons from Collin de Plancy's infernal dictionary, i.e., wicked forces that manifest in physical characteristics. Rabbi Shmuley personifies Belphegor, Laura Loomer personifies Eurynome, Randy Fine personifies Abraxas, and Benjamin Netanyahu personifies Baal. In some cases, there are people like Leslie Wexner who literally blames the Jewish demon Dybbuk for his greed and wickedness. These demons are also expressed in Hollywood via pig orcs, slave traders, and bankers. Just as Jesus said to the Jewish leaders in John 8:44, “You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father's desires.” The Mossad motto is “by deception we wage war.” This is why the reports of everything happening are so confusing: Trump said to hold off a day before the attack in hopes of a peace deal, while he also said an attack “could very well happen” and pulled embassy staff; then the US was also not supposed to have known of the attack, or certainly be in support of it, and was not supposed to have had any role whatsoever, yet also conspired via a fake feud to deceive the Iranians in preparations for an attack that was planned for eight months; then Trump was said to have given a red light to an Israeli plan to kill the supreme Iranian leader, something that a spokesperson for Netanyahu told CNN was “FAKE,” while also reports about the Israeli plan itself to kill Khamenei were “fake.” *The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

PREVIEW: Colleague Caleb Weiss from Africa for FDD reports on the ISIS and al-Qaeda assaults on Uganda and Somalia. More later.

In this explosive two-part analysis, Trump's $9.4 billion rescission bill is framed as more than just a budget maneuver—it's a strategic test to force Republicans to defund USAID, NPR, and PBS, institutions accused of indirectly empowering America's enemies. The commentary outlines how USAID allegedly funneled billions to the Taliban and Al Qaeda, and explores Trump's controversial diplomatic concessions to maintain the petrodollar system amid global instability. The second half shifts focus to ICE raids in Los Angeles, framed not as immigration enforcement but as direct action against cartel-linked money laundering and trafficking networks. The speaker alleges a merger between Democratic leaders and cartel interests, accusing them of using illegal immigration as a cover for criminal operations. Through sharp analogies to domestic abuse psychology, the piece criticizes Democratic responses to law enforcement crackdowns, portraying the conflict as a defining moment in Trump's campaign to dismantle systemic corruption and reclaim national sovereignty.

In a fiery political commentary, the speaker unpacks President Trump's $9.4 billion rescission bill—a strategic test vote targeting controversial federal programs like USAID, NPR, and PBS. The segment alleges that USAID has funneled billions to enemies like the Taliban and Al Qaeda, while Trump's efforts aim to halt these flows and expose Congressional resistance. The discussion pivots to the broader implications of U.S. foreign policy, suggesting diplomatic deals with hostile actors were necessary to preserve the petrodollar. A deeper dive into recent ICE raids in Los Angeles reveals claims of a crackdown on cartel-linked money laundering operations—described not as immigration enforcement but as a direct hit on Democrat-cartel collusion. The piece concludes by accusing Democratic leaders of protecting trafficking networks disguised as immigrant support, signaling an escalating political and legal battle over national security and immigration.

Send us a textThe threats of communist and Islamofascist violence are very real and need to be taken seriously. The LA violence was well-organized and well-funded by Marxist billionaires, and it's fixing to spread across the country; and now, Al-Awlaki, the newly anointed leader of Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula, is calling for all 4.3 million Muslims in the United States to rise up and kill President Trump and all his supporters.Immediate preparation for potential unrest and possible horrific violence is highly advised for all Americans, but more so in all the large Democrat-run cities, which are the major targets.Support the showGiveSendGo | Unconstitutional 2A Prosecution of Tate Adamiak Askari Media GroupBuy Paul Eberle's book "Look at the Dirt"Paul Eberle (lookatthedirt.com)The Deadly Path: How Operation Fast & Furious and Bad Lawyers Armed Mexican Cartels: Forcelli, Peter J., MacGregor, Keelin, Murphy, Stephen: 9798888456491: Amazon.com: BooksVoice of the Blue (buzzsprout.com)

John Kiriakou, former CIA officer and whistleblower against the agency's  torture program, discusses his extensive background in intelligence, the evolving role of technology and AI in intelligence operations, and the balance between privacy and national security. John details his experience with the CIA's torture program post-9/11, and the consequences he's faced for exposing these practices. Key Takeaways: How targeted intelligence can succeed without mass surveillance, and how national security doesn't need to mean sacrificing individual privacy The evolution of drone warfare in military options, and how its crossed moral lines The dangers posed by AI in intelligence, and the need for ethical considerations in the application of AI The current state of the US Patriot Act, and the implications of technology in media Guest Bio: John Kiriakou is a former CIA officer, former senior investigator for the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, and former counterterrorism consultant for ABC News. He was responsible for the capture in Pakistan in 2002 of Abu Zubaydah, believed to be the third-ranking official in al-Qaeda. In 2007, Kiriakou exposed the CIA's torture program, saying that the CIA tortured prisoners, had become official U.S. government policy, and that this policy had been approved by then-President George W. Bush. He became the sixth whistleblower indicted by the Obama administration under the Espionage Act—a law designed to punish spies—and served 23 months in prison as a result. Kiriakou is the author of eight books, including The Reluctant Spy: My Secret Life in the CIA's War on Terror; Doing Time Like a Spy: How the CIA Taught Me to Survive and Thrive in Prison; and The Convenient Terrorist: Abu Zubaydah and the Weird Wonderland of America's Secret Wars. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- About this Show: The Brave Technologist is here to shed light on the opportunities and challenges of emerging tech.

The show opens with the third incident since the beginning of June of CCP affiliated students trying to smuggle biological pathogens into our country that could kill wheat, corn and rice. Why are we still allowing these bad actors to have students visas? When Joe Biden had a functioning brain, he was against sanctuary cities and wanted to fully fund Federal agencies who were supposed to be going after illegals. Now, the Left is using taxpayer funds to fuel the anti-ICE riots. These groups are literal communist organizations. Turns out Mexico and it's president are pushing Mexicans in our country to resist the Trump agenda. Isn't that the very basis of an enemy invasion? At the same time, while Mayor Karen Bass is saying the “chaos” is the fault of D.C., Rep. “Mad” Maxine Waters (D-CA) says there has been no violence. Former CIA Director Brennan wonders if someone will enact a coup against the Trump White House? CNN wonders if the Insurrection Act would be used and one of their guests shocked them by saying to very well could and should be used if local resources are overwhelmed. Trump reminds the press corps that there will be a lot more ICE raids across the nation and they will be protected from bought-and-paid-for rioters. And, for what it's worth, the polling is all in favor of the GOP. In what I'm sure the Democrats will miss on terribly irony, the leader of Al-Qaeda is calling for a Jihad on the President, the VP and the cabinet as well as others in the America First movement. I wonder if they like being on the same side as Al-Qaeda? Finally, on a more positive note, it seems Simone Biles has made an attempt to apologize to Riley Gaines. It seems odd that a female athlete who was sexually abused by a man, would be in so much favor of men invading women's sports.

Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., in an effort to restore public trust in the Advisory Committee for Immunization Practices, released the 17 current members of the committee. Democratic PACs and leftist groups are attempting to pressure federal lawmakers to demand an end to workplace ICE raids. The Massachusetts chapter of the 50501 Movement, a leftist anti-Trump protest group, was among the outfits that heeded the call of the SEIU, directing fellow travelers to take to the streets. In addition to massing demonstrators in Boston, the 50501 Movement is promoting a nationwide uprising on June 14 called “No Kings.”Gavin Newsom was dealt a judicial defeat after he requested an emergency motion to halt President Donald Trump's order to use the military to oppose the Los Angeles riots. United States District Judge Charles Breyer temporarily allowed the order to the National Guard to continue until Thursday, when the motion would be reconsidered after the defendants answered and the plaintiffs responded.Governor Gavin Newsom accused President Trump of making up a phone call between them before Trump called up the National Guard. President Trump called Gavin Newsom a “liar” and then sent the receipts to John Roberts of Fox News, who then shared a screenshot of the call records on X.ICE busted more than 100 illegal alien workers in a workplace raid at a Nebraska meat-packing plant, enraging protesters who pelted federal vehicles with rocks. The federal law enforcement agency carried out the largest raid in the state since President Donald Trump took office at Omaha's Glenn Valley Foods.Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum is threatening to “mobilize” the country against a Republican proposal that would impose a tax on money sent out of the United States by foreign nationals. Sa'ad bin Atef al-Awlaki, the emir of al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula, has directed American Muslims to assassinate President Donald Trump, calling assassinations “the greatest form of jihad today.”Become a supporter of Tapp into the Truth: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/tapp-into-the-truth--556114/support Tapp into the Truth on Rumble.

As Israel's ethnic cleansing in Gaza escalates with ever greater horror, they get a free pass in Syria from NATO's Al-Qaida man...while Irish politicians disgrace themselves re Iran AGAIN..we discuss..

This week's update examines a new video from the leader of al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP), calling for global jihad and attacks on Jews, Israel, and America in response to events in Gaza. We then shift to a new warning from the FBI and DHS regarding threats to Jewish and Israeli communities in the homeland.

In this episode, Daniel J. Levy speaks with Edmund Fitton-Brown, former UK Ambassador to Yemen, about the evolving Houthi threat and its implications for Israel, the Gulf states, and the broader regional balance of power. They explore the role of the Houthis in Iran's attempts to project power in the region and in ongoing talks about the Iranian nuclear programme. Edmund Fitton-Brown is a veteran British diplomat who served as the UK's Ambassador to Yemen from 2015 to 2017 and later coordinated UN expert panels on ISIL, Al-Qaeda, and the Taliban. He holds advisory or fellowship positions with the Counter Extremism Project, the Middle East Institute, The Soufan Center and New America.

Israel's throttling of aid for Gaza is as much about weaponizing food and other essential goods as it is about eventually installing a post-war Palestinian administration empathetic to Israeli concerns. Similarly, Israel's refusal to end the war intends to create space for an alternative to Hamas to emerge as the group's popularity in Gaza hits rock bottom. So is Israel's sidelining of the United Nations, despite its decades of experience in delivering aid to Gaza and extensive infrastructure in the Strip. An outspoken Palestinian American Hamas critic who lost 33 relatives in the Gaza war, Ahmed Fouad Alkhatib, believes that Israel is following the example of the United States in Iraq, where it funded and trained Awakening Councils to counter Al-Qaeda.

Former ICE Director Tom Homan issues a dire warning, claiming the U.S. faces unprecedented national security risks due to President Biden's border policies. In a chilling analysis, Homan explains how 2 million "gotaways"—illegal immigrants who evaded capture—pose a threat to homeland security, suggesting many paid extra to avoid vetting. The segment highlights the arrest of a suspected Al Qaeda member released into the U.S., violent resistance to law enforcement during cartel-linked raids, and the alleged efforts by progressive officials to undermine ICE. Homan compares the current climate to the lead-up to 9/11, urging Americans to connect the dots before it's too late.

A new June 2025 documentary from TMZ addresses the “fifth plane” of September 11, 2001, with testimonies from United 23 flight crew about what was almost another act of terrorism. Although certainly a missing piece of the story, the documentary does more to speculate and imply who and what was responsible for the other events than actually prove anything about the flight. The film has flight attendants, and a dramatization over their stories, who believed men who wore tan suits, a person in a burka, a sweating passenger, and passengers who didn't eat meat, were highly suspicious - all 24 years after the fact with post-911 perceptions. This follows the June 2024 release of a video that implied Saudi was directly involved in 911. These two stories follow the motif - going back to 2002 - when the Guardian reported “Uncle Sam's Lucky Finds,” which documented “the discovery of a flight manual in Arabic and a copy of the Koran in a car hired by Mohammed Atta and abandoned at Boston airport…” Then, a few days later, “another find, two blocks away from the twin towers, in the shape of Atta's passport.” Something was similarly said of another suspected plotter of 911.After the early 2025 New Orleans truck attack we likewise saw a reporter enter Shamsud-Din Jabbar's supposed home to find “religious materials, his Quran, an open Quran, with the passage there… and his prayer rug.”This follows the official description of 911 as Islamic “suicide attacks committed in 2001 by 19 militants associated with the Islamic extremist group al-Qaeda against targets.”All of this is despite the fact that these terrorists were documented to have been drinking alcohol, eating meat (even pork), hanging out with strippers, and spending lots of time in Las Vegas. And that is despite the fact that Muslims are forbidden from committing suicide, drinking alcohol or eating general meat, forbidden to engage with prostitution, and that there are no 72 virgins promised in their holy book. This is also despite the fact that at least 4 of the 19 supposed hijackers were still alive weeks after that fateful day. One story that is either lost, ignored, or debunked, is the report about 5 Dancing Israelis, an ABC story documenting how a witness named Maria in New Jersey watched three men on the roof of a white van “taking a movie.” She said they were taking video and phots of themselves with the World Trade Center burning in the background; they were “like happy, you know… they didn't look shocked to me.” After contacting authorities, police found the van filled with five men, a box cutter, lots of cash, and a curious defense: "We are Israeli. We are not your problem. Your problems are our problems. The Palestinians are the problem.” The media then, as today, ran stories about Dancing Palestinians with no context to the short clips. Conveniently, an Israeli also happened to be at the Boulder, Colorado, fire attack recently to provide evidence of another Mohammed hurting innocent people. And this follows the embassy worker shooting in Washington by a man who happened to have a Jewish name. Both of these cases resulted in the ADL and US-AG calling for hardcore crackdowns of the First Amendment, just as 911 was used to wage the Israeli-US agenda of endless conflicts for regime change, resource theft, and systematic extermination of Arab populations across the Middle East. Just as General Wesley Clark claimed to have seen as part of a plan at the pentagon (7 countries in 5 years) prior to the invasion of Iraq - and with zero reasoning or evidence. And this followed the PNAC think tank - founded by William Kristol and Robert Kagan in 1997 (both Jewish) - that produced a document called Rebuilding America's Defenses, calling for a “catastrophic and catalyzing event - like a new Pearl Harbor”; which is exactly what President Bush said in the White House daily log after 911: "The Pearl Harbor of the 21st century took place today. We think it's Osama bin Laden." And many years later in 2008, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu confirmed the use of 911 for just such a plan: “We are benefiting from one thing, and that is the attack on the Twin Towers and Pentagon, and the American struggle in Iraq.” He said in one interview, “It's very good…. well, not very good, but it will generate immediate sympathy.” And this doesn't account for the Jewish Larry Silverstein who pulled Building 7 or the Jewish Michael Chertoff, former Secretary of Homeland Security, who co-wrote the Patriot Act and sold body scanners to airports. All the while Islam and Muslims have been blamed for 911 and virtually every other form of terrorism, while the entire Arab world has grown justifiably more angry with the western world and Israel (a country founded on terrorism) for their condemnation of that world and for their subsequent destruction of the same - creating immense blowback. And then profiting from said destruction with defense contractors, private security firms, and the general military industrial complex enriching themselves on the backs of a widespread ethnic cleansing of the Arab world. Now that the Arab world is fully prepared to retaliate against the western world, there is modern justification to finish the job that Israel started - all to their benefit.And the same exact operation is occurring with Blackrock and Zelensky (the gay-Jewish-actor) in Ukraine with minerals, agricultural land, strategic land, and other resources. Ukraine, a country he said was going to be “a big Israel.”*The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

[00:30] Befriending Terrorists (37 minutes) During his first term as president, Donald Trump spoke out strongly against terrorist groups and nations who funded terrorists. One theme of President Trump's second term is that he wants peace at all costs. Whether it's Iran or the new leader of Syria, who was a member of al Qaeda, President Trump is reaching out to anyone to make a deal. [37:00] You Can't Change the Swamp (18 minutes) Elon Musk called President Trump's “big, beautiful bill” a "disgusting abomination” in a social media post yesterday. During his first term in office, and prior to winning the 2024 election, Donald Trump vowed to cut spending in D.C. But now it's back to business as usual in Washington, and that means more debt.

On September 11, 2012, armed militants attacked a U.S. consulate and nearby CIA annex in Benghazi, Libya. Several Americans died, including Ambassador Christopher Stevens. The attacks were later determined as a coordinated act of terrorism.   Former CIA Targeting Officer and author of Benghazi: Know Thy Enemy, Sarah Adams, dives into her experiences working in Libya and investigating the attack in 2012. She highlights the importance of the U.S. surveying Al-Qaeda and warns of what will happen if their potential threat is not taken seriously. Sarah also encourages Americans to report suspicious activity and advocates for the government to address these threats.  Bring on the stupid: A missing man in Turkey joins his own search party before realizing he was the one they were looking for.  Learn more about your ad choices.

When the United States retreated from the chaos of Kabul in August of 2021, General Sami Sadat was still fighting until the end. He  recounts how his troops were starved for ammunition for two years before the final pullout, while the U.S. was negotiating with the Taliban. He also talks about how earlier in his career he fought alongside the CIA to track down al-Qaeda in the mountains on Hindu Kush. General Sadat provides a uniquely different view of the war in Afghanistan, how it was fought and how changing U.S. military goals and tactics made it increasingly difficult to succeed. He currently leads opposition efforts against the Taliban from outside of Afghanistan.Heroes Behind HeadlinesExecutive Producer Ralph PezzulloProduced & Engineered by Mike DawsonMusic provided by ExtremeMusic.com

Al-Qaida-ledaren Usama bin Ladin följde händelserna, den 11 september 2001 via BBC:s arabiska sändningar, när två passagerarflygplan kort tid efter varandra flög in i tvillingtornen på World Trade Center i New York. Aldrig tidigare hade världens skådat ett terrordåd av den magnituden.Usama bin Laden hade genomgått en utveckling från en ung blyg religiös man, som levde i enkelhet trots att han ärvt miljoner av faderns som varit Saudiarabiens främsta byggherre, till en finansiär av jihad mot den sovjetiska ockupationen i Afghanistan för att slutligen planera det största terrordådet i världshistorien.I detta avsnitt av podden Historia Nu samtalar programledaren Urban Lindstedt med journalisten Jens Nordqvist som är aktuell med boken Al-Qaidas krig – Historien bakom den islamistiska terrorismen.När den saudiska konservatismen wahhabismen och salafismen under 1970-talet parade sig med den radikala egyptiska jihadismen bildades en explosiv mix, en draksådd ur vilken al-Qaida och senare 2010-talets terrororganisation Islamiska staten, IS, växte fram.Bakom det spektakulära dådet mot tvillingtornens i New York den 11 september 2001 stod nätverket al-Qaida som grundats av bin Laden 1988 i kampen mot den sovjetiska ockupationen av Afghanistan.Al-Qaida vill återupprätta den islamiska civilisationens storhet och att bekämpa de sittande regimerna i muslimska länder, som betraktas som korrupta och beroende av västmakterna. Världsbilden präglas av en föreställning om västmakternas och Israels gemensamma konspiration mot islam.Al-Qaida började som ett logistiskt nätverk för att stödja muslimer från hela världen som kämpade mot Sovjetunionen under det afghanska kriget. När sovjeterna drog sig ur från Afghanistan 1989 skingrades organisationen, men fortsatte att motsätta sig vad dess ledare ansåg korrupta islamiska regimer och utländsk (dvs. USA) närvaro i islamiska länder.Bild:Al-Qaida-ledaren Usama bin Ladin med sin rådgivare Dr Ayman al-Zawahiri under en intervju med den pakistanske journalisten Hamid Mir i november 2001 i Kabul.

Until late last year, the United States had a US$10 million bounty on Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa. A former leader of the al-Nusra Front and al-Qaeda in Iraq, al-Sharaa was once an enemy of America. Now Syria’s transitional leader, al-Sharaa has just met US President Donald Trump, who called him “an attractive young guy” with “a strong past” and pledged to lift sanctions on Damascus. Today, Damascus-based correspondent, Heidi Pett, on meeting al-Sharaa in person, how he won an audience with Trump and what it means for Syria’s future.

Welcome to the jetstream, where elite criminal impunity flies above laws and accountability. Russian mafia expert Olga Lautman joins Gaslit Nation to connect the global dots on oligarchy in the White House.  We start with Qatar, a small but powerful gas station dictatorship, and a leading financier of terrorists. Once diplomatically isolated for its links to fellow terror-state Iran as well as groups linked to Al-Qaeda and ISIS, Qatar has been back in business, brokering nuclear talks with Russia and Iran, investing billions with the Kremlin, propping up Hamas, and gifting Trump a $400,000 luxury jet, dubbed a “flying palace.” National security risk? Absolutely. Surveillance threat? Almost certainly. Bribery? Looks like it. But what is Qatar getting in return? Qatar, the second-largest buyer of U.S. weapons, after its nemesis Saudi Arabia, recently secured a $2B U.S. arms deal, thanks to Trump. It also invested $10 billion in a Texas-based natural gas venture that requires federal oversight, under Trump. Andrea and Olga go through all the ways Trump and Qatar enjoy kleptocratic quid-pro-quo, and years of Trump's Middle East-linked corruption that illegally helped him come to power in 2016, enriching him and his family, Kremlin-style.  This week's bonus show, available for subscribers at the Truth-teller level ($5/month) and higher, looks at ways to stay grounded and fight back in the deliberately engineered chaos of oligarchy and its firehose of corruption.

Blerim Skoro is a Kosovo-born former CIA operative whose life took a dramatic turn after deserting the Yugoslav army in the 1990s. Arriving in New York as an asylum seeker, Skoro's journey led him from a drug trafficking conviction to becoming a key informant for the FBI and CIA post-9/11. Posing as a radicalized Islamist, he infiltrated al-Qaeda networks in the Balkans, Middle East, and Pakistan, providing critical intelligence. His covert work ended after a 2010 shooting in Macedonia, when the CIA severed ties, leaving him with minimal compensation. Facing deportation in 2016, Skoro's story, detailed in the documentary The Accidental Spy, highlights the perils of espionage and abandonment by his handlers.
