This means that they were hired at the plant and assumed to be “moderates” who would have no problem working for a Western-affiliated firm.

#MyJihad in Algeria: Two al-Qaeda jihadists found dead inside gas plant were “Canadians”
They most likely didn’t consider themselves Canadians. They no doubt thought of themselves as members of the global, supranational umma. Canada’s newest export: jihad mass murderers. What are Muslim leaders in Canada doing to make sure that no more “Canadian” Muslims misunderstand Islam in the way these two did? Why, nothing. Nothing at all. “Two […]

#MyJihad in Algeria: Five of the jihadists were employees of the BP plant they raided and destroyed
Apparently no one checked to make sure they were “moderates.” To have done so would have been “Islamophobic.” In any case, they would probably have been able to fool any such investigators easily. “Algeria hostage crisis: al Qaeda had help from inside claim security sources,” by Abdelatif Belkayem and Henry Samuel in the Telegraph, January […]

#MyJihad in Algeria: Jihadists were after “crusaders,” not Algerians, non-Muslim hostages “were all tied with one suicide bomber watching them”
Al-Qaeda wanted to send the message that it could strike anywhere in the Sahara. This comes just after Obama said they were essentially already defeated. “Kidnappers said were after “˜crusaders” not Algerians: freed hostage,” from Al Arabiya, January 19 (thanks to Voice of the Copts): Al-Qaeda-linked militants, who kidnapped hundreds of workers at a gas […]
