Harmony and Disharmony:
Doc ID: AFGP-2002-001120 Synopsis: A letter from Abu ‘Abdullah Al-Kuwaiti outlining the next attack against the Americans, and issuing a statement to the Americans to let them know of their fighters’ readiness to kill hundreds of thousands with their nuclear and biological arsenal. The second letter is dated 10 November 2001 from Abu Yousef Al-Qannas to Khallad Al-Kuwaiti informing him that he is moving north by orders of the Sheikh (Osama bin Laden), and that he will join him in a week’s time. Key Themes: Abu ‘Abdullah Al-Kuwaiti’s undated letter is addressed to the American people. He writes that he is announcing publicly the next attacks against the Americans, and that groups in America and Europe, which are “above suspicion,” have been given the green light to move. He also writes that there is no animosity between “us” and the Americans; the war is only between “us” and the Jews. By interfering in their countries, the Americans have brought this on themselves. He goes on that they have nuclear and biological weapons with which they will kill “hundreds of thousands” of people that they don’t otherwise wish to fight. He states that the billions of American dollars spent thus far have succeeded in killing less than ten “martyrs.” The next few pages list varied locations in Afghanistan, a series of names, a packing list of personal items, and an admonition to fast and pray during Ramadan. The second letter, dated 10 Nov 2001, is by Abu Yousef Al-Qannas to Khallad Al-Kuwaiti. Al-Qannas writes that he is heading north by orders of the Sheikh (Osama bin Laden). He also notes that Khallad Al-Kuwaiti must meet with the Sheikh first. A third letter is included at the end from Salman Yahya Hasan Mohammed Al-Rabi’I to Furqan Al-Tajiki professing his undying love. This is not of apparent consequence.
