Blind Sheik Near Death: FBI Terror Alert

Blind_sheik Fox News reports that the FBI has sent a bulletin to state and local law enforcement warning of possible terrorist reprisals as the health of incarcerated terror mastermind Sheik Omar Abdel-Rahman fails:

The blind sheik, who was the alleged architect of the 1993 World Trade Center bombing, has called for revenge should he die in U.S. custody.

Last week, Abdel-Rahman was given blood transfusions at St. John's Regional Health Center in Springfield, Mo., after spitting up blood in his prison cell. A tumor was reportedly found on his liver.

The sheik was returned to federal prison in Missouri after his treatment.

Abdel-Rahman's alleged last will, read at an Al Qaeda news conference eight years ago, called for reprisals should he die in an American jail.

"My Brothers ... if [the Americans] kill me, which they will certainly do — hold my funeral and send my corpse to my family, but do not let my blood be shed in vain," the will read. "Rather, extract the most violent revenge, and remember your brother who spoke the truth and died for the will of God ... the Mujahid Sheikh Omar Abdel al Rahman."

Abdel-Rahman was convicted of plotting to blow up the United Nations Headquarters, a federal building, two tunnels and a bridge in Manhattan as well as trying to assassinate the Egyptian president.

When he dies they should simply wrap the body in a pig skin, cremate it, and sprinkle the ashes(make that 'dump') off the New Jersey shore. And announce the fact, too.

Any nonsense in the US from Islamic twits ... slap them down hard.

Is that too mean of me?
