Frasi di Abu Musab al-Zarqawi

Abu Mus‘ab al-Zarqawi è stato un terrorista takfirista giordano.

Era originario di Zarqāʾ, una povera città industriale a nordest di Amman, sede del più antico campo profughi palestinese creato dalla Croce Rossa nel 1948, che oggi ospita ancora 18.000 persone. Al-Zarqāwī è uno pseudonimo, il suo nome vero era probabilmente Aḥmad Fāḍil al-Nazāl al-Khalāʾil .

Fu affiliato ad al-Qaida di Osama bin Laden, e capo del gruppo Ansār al-Islām basato in Iraq. Il Segretario di Stato statunitense Colin Powell ha descritto al-Zarqāwī come un "attivista di al-Qāʿida". I maggiori ufficiali statunitensi lo hanno descritto come uno "jihadista indipendente". Altri descrivono le azioni di al-Zarqāwī come concorrenti a quelle organizzate da al-Qāʿida, anche se con scopi simili. In ogni caso al-Zarqāwī ha probabilmente partecipato ad azioni violente contro i militari statunitensi in Iraq e contro un diplomatico USA in Giordania.

Come risultato, il governo degli Stati Uniti ha offerto una ricompensa di 25 milioni di dollari a chiunque avesse fornito informazioni utili alla sua cattura. Un'ipotesi accreditata ritiene che al-Zarqāwī abbia avuto, fino alla sua uccisione, più potere di Bin Laden a causa della sua maggiore visibilità come leader dell'insurrezione contro i militari USA e il governo provvisorio dell'Iraq, considerando inoltre la possibilità infondata che Bin Laden non fosse più in vita o che fosse impossibilitato a comunicare con i suoi seguaci. Il 21 ottobre 2004 al-Zarqāwī ha annunciato ufficialmente la sua lealtà ad al-Qāʿida. Il 28 dicembre 2004, in un messaggio trasmesso da un'emittente radio del Qatar, Osama bin Laden avrebbe nominato al-Zarqāwī "comandante di al-Qāʿida in Iraq".

Abū Musʿab al-Zarqāwī è considerato da molti come leader della al-Jamāʿat al-Tawḥīd wa l-Jihād , una rete insurrezionale operante in Iraq che poi diventerà lo Stato Islamico dell'Iraq e del Levante . Secondo alcuni rapporti egli fu arrestato dal governo iraniano e, insieme a molti altri sospetti alti membri di al-Qāʿida, fu offerto al governo statunitense nel quadro di un accordo che non fu però mai portato a conclusione.

Secondo altre voci rivelatesi infondate, al-Zarqāwī fu considerato morto dopo il 2001, in quanto non comparve a lungo in alcun documento filmato.

“When recalling historical experience, the testimony of ancient times, the proofs of the present reality, and the things that we are experiencing today, we begin to truly understand God's words: "They are the enemies; so beware of them. The curse of Allah be on them!" Ibn Taymiyyah was right in his description of these people when they repudiated the people of Islam. He said: This is why they cooperated with the infidels and the Tartars… They were the main cause of the invasion of Muslim countries by Genghis Khan… Some of them cooperated with the Tartars and Franks (European Crusaders)… some of them (Shiites) backed the Christians….. They (Shiites) harbor more evil and rancor against Muslims, big and small, devout and non-devout, than anyone else…. They enjoy repudiating and cursing Muslim leaders, especially the orthodox caliphs and the ulema (clerics). To them, anyone who does not believe in the infallible Imam (Al-Mahdi) is a nonbeliever in God and the prophet… whenever Christians and infidels triumphed over, it was a day of jubilation… This is the end of what Shaykh-al-Islam Ibn Taymiyyah said about them. It is as if he is living among us today, an eyewitness of what is taking place, and saying… They always support infidels, including Jews and Christians. They help them in killing Muslims.”
