Assassinations, Jihad Attacks On U.S. Officials – Including Trump, Vance, Rubio, Hegseth And Their Families - Elon Musk And His Companies, U.S. Military, Microsoft, And Targeting Jews In America And Europe: 'There Are No Red Lines.' Al-Awlaki urged Muslims to revive the "tradition of assassinations," describing it as the "greatest form of Jihad today." He said the targets should be the "leaders of apostasy," whom he labeled "Jewish Arabs," specifically naming the leaders of Egypt, Jordan, and the Gulf states. He appealed directly to military personnel in Arab countries, calling on them to take action. He said Arab pilots should strike "the Jews," U.S. military bases in the region, and American aircraft carriers. At the very least, he said, they should attack the palaces of Arab leaders, describing these as the "initial steps" that must be taken. Al-Awlaki claimed there are 4.5 million Muslims in the United States and said that they should carry out acts of retaliation without hesitation, stating: "Do not consult anyone about killing infidel Americans." Speaking over images of Manhattan skyscrapers, he said that the list of targets should be "effective," and declared: "There are no red lines." #TerrorThreat #AlAwlakiSpeech #JihadPropaganda #USNationalSecurity #IslamistExtremism #CounterTerrorism #RadicalIslam #HomegrownTerror #TerrorRecruitment #AssassinationPlot #ExtremistViolence #AntiSemitismAlert #TargetedViolence #USMilitaryThreat #TrumpSecurity #JewishCommunityAlert #MideastTensions #CyberTerrorismWatch #GlobalSecurityThreat #ManhattanThreatAlert ~HT.410~ED.346~GR.122~
