Jihadist calls on US Muslims to cut off Letterman's tongue

US - It's no joke - David Letterman is now terror target No.1. US Muslims were called upon to cut off Letterman's tongue and "break his neck" in a chilling post by a suspected terror operative on the al Qaeda online forum Shumoukh al-Islam. The late-night funnyman angered a crazy jihadist bearing the moniker Umar al-Basrawi, "Omar from Basra, Iraq," because he joked about the deaths of Osama bin Laden and his successor. In the missive, al-Basrawi said Letterman, a Presbyterian, is Jewish and part of a "Zionist" conspiracy. "I have seen with my eyes and heard with my ears one of the scum of the Jews, one of their pigs, mocking the leaders of the mujahedeen," al-Basrawi wrote Tuesday, according to translation by the Middle East Media Research Institute, a nonprofit that monitors online chatter. "We pray to Allah to paralyze his tongue, and that the righteous believers will break his neck," the threat continued. A source said al-Basrawi is connected to al Qaeda because in order to post on the Shumoukh forum, the terror group must approve of the author. Letterman, who is on vacation this week, has often goofed on terrorists. Full Story>>
