Today I learned (from a Jacob Geller video, but here's an article, too) that Al Qaida went on a rampage committing arson, destroying ancient scrolls and manuscripts (specifically in Mali). A librarian who was preserving a collection of PRICELESS manuscripts in Timbuktu knew that Al Qaida would be coming to their library sooner or later, so over the course of six months with the help of several volunteers, they would transport around 200,000 books.

(Some of the documents & books in the library didn't make it out/were destroyed around January 2013) In the beginning they drove 600 mile (checkpoint filled) round trip again and again to each house that has volunteered to put their life on the line to save the books.

Eventually, that method became impossible, and he discovered he (and the other volunteers) only have one choice: FLOATING THE REST OF THE BOOKS DOWN THE NIGER RIVER. BOOKS. DOWN A RIVER. Seven Hundred Ninety One (791) TRUNKS/"footlockers" of BOOKS were sent down a river. You want to know how many made it? How many were recovered? ALL SEVEN HUNDRED NINETY ONE TRUNKS WORTH.

These books are literal relics. "Some date back to the 13th Century, and have survived more than 700 years." Bro, you are awesome, but you are going to give me a heart attack. Anyway, this some wild history and the art in these manuscripts is beautiful.

Al-Qaeda, the militant, Islamist, and terrorist organization responsible for the September 11 attacks in the United States in 2001, called upon its supporters and Muslims worldwide to carry out terror attacks in Sweden and Denmark to "take revenge" for the series of Quran-burning protests conducted in the two Nordic countries over the past few months.

Al-Qaeda Central Calls Muslims In Europe, Worldwide To Avenge Quran Burnings | MEMRI https://t.co/YwvFRTYcWb — (@SteveStalinsky) August 15, 2023

The terrorist group made these calls through the As-Sahab Media Foundation, which serves as Al-Qaeda’s official media center. The media channel released a document titled "A Statement Regarding the Assaults on the Quran and Duty of Fighting the Aggressors" on August 13th.

The three-page statement urged Muslims to conduct violent acts in Sweden, Denmark, and the rest of Europe, including killing the perpetrators of Quran burnings, burning Swedish and Danish embassies worldwide, and targeting the monarchs and diplomats of Sweden and Denmark.

"Denmark and Sweden are two small, despicable countries that amount to no more than two small spots on the world map," the statement read. "People of Islam in Sweden, Denmark, and all of Europe, the duty of revenge is placed upon you."

Aside from carrying out terrorist attacks, Al-Qaeda also urged Muslims to conduct an economic boycott against the countries involved in the Quran burnings, calling for a "battle without bloodshed or difficulty" and "silent killing" of the perpetrators.

#Denmark & #Sweden on alert! In reaction to recent Koran-burnings no less than #AlQaeda has issued call for attacks against those two nations, which terrorist-experts there advise authrties to take very seriously https://t.co/bMfqYblehX — (@EuroSavant) August 15, 2023

The statement also said that Muslims should take matters into their own hands and not rely on governments' responses from Muslim-majority countries.

"As to relying on cold responses by governments of our Islamic countries... besides them being a proof of their weakness and despicableness, they encourage [our] enemies to continue harming our sanctities," the statement said.

Tore Refslund Hamming, a senior fellow at the International Centre for the Study of Radicalization at the King’s College London, described the document by Al-Qaeda as "the most direct call from militant Islamists to carry out a terror attack against Denmark since the Mohammed crisis” in a thread on the social media platform X, previously known as Twitter.

The Danish intelligence service has also started monitoring the situation after the latest call for attacks by Al-Qaeda. The British government also changed its advice for travelers going to Sweden, saying it was now "very likely" that terrorist groups are planning an attack. Swedish security forces added that the terror threats against Sweden may have resulted from the Quran-burning protests in the country. However, there had been more counter-demonstrators at protests than actual protesters.

But another expert based at the King’s College London, Swedish terrorism researcher Hans Brun downplayed the threats by Al-Qaeda and said it has become obsolete because its organizational structure has been dismantled.

"This is really not anything new, but just another call to people around the world to exact revenge, and it's directed at lone actors," Brun said, adding that he did not believe Al-Qaeda was planning an attack itself.

"You could look at it as a call to action. If this was something they had organized themselves, they would not have announced it in advance like this. You should also remember that al-Qaida these days is significantly weakened," he added.

Nevertheless, Brun cautioned that the threat by Al-Qaeda might put Swedish and Danish diplomats and embassy staff working in the Middle East in danger, adding that they must take precautionary measures and avoid unnecessary engagements in the countries at risk.

Last July, the Swedish embassy in Iraq’s capital, Baghdad, was burned down by protesters while the country’s security forces blocked an attempt to storm the Danish embassy.

==

The people who want you to know that "tHiS hAs nOtHiNg tO dO wItH ReLiGiOn!!," also want to tell you that if you just don't burn the quran, nobody needs to die.

It was a mistake to pander to this crap 30 years ago. Sweden and Denmark need to resist the pressure to implement Islamic blasphemy codes.

The Al-Kuwari clan serves as the primary financier of Al-Qaeda. 2023

The U.S. Treasury Department has released declassified information on Qataris associated with 'Al-Qaeda.' The Al-Kuwari clan is identified as the primary financial supporter of Al-Qaeda. Representatives of the Al-Kuwari family in key positions within Qatar's administration play a central role in financing and coordinating international terrorist cells, facilitated through a controlled banking network and non-profit organizations.

Kuwaris involved in Al-Qaeda's terrorist activities were included in U.S. sanctions lists from 2011 to 2015. Despite this, the direct involvement of five clan members, as documented by the U.S. Treasury Department, had no impact on their status or subsequent advancement within Qatar's power structure. They continued to be accepted within the international political establishment.

Ali Bin Ahmed al-Kuwari, Qatar's Minister of Finance, was previously included in this list, although this information has not been widely publicized. The provided dossier outlines the geographical scope of financial involvement and the connection with Qatar Charity. Ali Bin Ahmed al-Kuwari directed millions of dollars to 'Al-Qaeda' in Iraq and provided hundreds of thousands of dollars to members of 'Al-Qaeda' in Syria, 'Ash-Shabaab' in Somalia, and 'Al-Qaeda' in the Arabian Peninsula through the charitable organization Qatar Charity.

The financing schemes, totaling tens of millions of dollars, originated from the affiliated network of Islamic banking linked to Ali Bin Ahmed al-Kuwari, including Qatar National Bank, Qatar Islamic Bank, and Qatar International Islamic Bank, with intermediation through Barwa Bank and Masraf Al-Rayan.

Qatar Charity, led by Ali Bin Ahmed al-Kuwari's brother Yousef Ahmed al-Kuwari, maintains consistent accounts with QNB. The U.S. Interagency Counterterrorism Committee and the National Counterterrorism Center categorized Qatar Charity as a 'Tier III (TSE) terrorist support organization.' The organization has been implicated in several criminal cases initiated by victims of terrorist acts funded through the Islamic banking system managed by Ali Bin Ahmed al-Kuwari. These funds were used by Al-Qaeda to orchestrate attacks.

The British branch of Qatar Charity, rebranded as Nectar Trust, sponsored the Emaan Islamic Center in the United Kingdom. According to WikiLeaks data, the director of this center until 2020, Ahmed Alravi, was associated with supporting uprisings inspired by Al-Qaeda in Iraq and Palestine. The Qatar Centre for Voluntary Activity (QCVA), operating under the Ministry of Culture and Sports of Qatar, also participated in fundraising initiatives for radicals. The process was overseen by Abd al-Latif bin Abdullah al-Kuwari.

Abd al-Latif al-Kuwari was subjected to sanctions by the United States in August 2015 and by the United Nations in September 2015 for fundraising and working as a security officer for Al-Qaeda. As early as the 2000s, he facilitated the travel of Al-Qaeda leaders to Qatar. He was observed collaborating with Saad bin Saad al-Kabi in overseeing fundraising campaigns for Al-Qaeda in Syria, instructing donors to transfer funds to a controlled account in the Qatar Islamic Bank in Doha. Afterward, he worked in the Ministry of Municipality and Urban Planning in Qatar.

Collaborating alongside him was Salim Hasan Khalifa Rashid Al-Kuwari, who, according to the U.S. Treasury Department, provided financial and logistical support to Al-Qaeda and its handlers in Iran. He also facilitated the travel of extremist recruits on behalf of high-ranking Al-Qaeda coordinators based in Iran. Concurrently, he held a position in the Ministry of Interior in Qatar within the ‘civil defense’ sector, where he returned even after the scandal involving the U.S. Ministry and the exposure of his ties to terrorism.

Unraveling the Financial Connections: The Al-Kuwari Clan's Alleged Ties to Terrorism

Introduction:

The Al-Kuwari clan has been implicated in allegations of financing and coordinating international terrorist cells, particularly in connection with Al-Qaeda. This blog post delves into the reported involvement of key members of the Al-Kuwari family in financing terrorist activities and their alleged connection to a controlled banking network and non-profit organizations.

The Al-Kuwari Clan's Role in Financing Terrorism: Representatives of the Al-Kuwari family, reportedly holding influential positions within Qatar's administration, are said to play a central role in financing and coordinating international terrorist cells. Despite being included in U.S. sanctions lists from 2011 to 2015, certain clan members continued to advance within the country's power structure without facing consequences.

Financial Transactions and Charitable Organizations:

The Minister of Finance of Qatar, Ali Bin Ahmed al-Kuwari, has been implicated in directing millions of dollars to 'Al-Qaeda' in Iraq and providing substantial funds to members of 'Al-Qaeda' in Syria, 'Ash-Shabaab' in Somalia, and 'Al-Qaeda' in the Arabian Peninsula through Qatar Charity, a charitable organization he is connected to.

Islamic Banking Network:

Tens of millions of dollars reportedly flowed through an affiliated network of Islamic banking linked to Ali Bin Ahmed al-Kuwari. Key financial institutions involved include Qatar National Bank, Qatar Islamic Bank, and Qatar International Islamic Bank, with intermediation through Barwa Bank and Masraf Al-Rayan.

Qatar Charity and Its Alleged Support for Terrorism:

Qatar Charity, led by Ali Bin Ahmed al-Kuwari's brother Yousef Ahmed al-Kuwari, has faced scrutiny, with the U.S. Interagency Counterterrorism Committee and the National Counterterrorism Center categorizing it as a 'Tier III (TSE) terrorist support organization.' The organization has been implicated in criminal cases initiated by victims of terrorist acts funded through the Islamic banking system.

International Connections:

The British branch of Qatar Charity, rebranded as Nectar Trust, reportedly sponsored the Emaan Islamic Center in the United Kingdom, associated with individuals linked to supporting uprisings inspired by Al-Qaeda in Iraq and Palestine, according to WikiLeaks data.

Involvement of Qatar Government Entities:

The Qatar Centre for Voluntary Activity (QCVA), operating under the Ministry of Culture and Sports of Qatar, and overseen by Abd al-Latif bin Abdullah al-Kuwari, allegedly participated in fundraising initiatives for radicals.

Individual Sanctions and Continued Involvement:

Individuals like Abd al-Latif al-Kuwari, subjected to sanctions by the United States and the United Nations in 2015 for fundraising and working as a security officer for Al-Qaeda, reportedly continued to play roles within the Qatari government even after their sanctions. This includes collaboration with Salim Hasan Khalifa Rashid Al-Kuwari, who allegedly provided financial and logistical support to Al-Qaeda.

Conclusion:

The allegations surrounding the Al-Kuwari clan's financial connections to terrorism raise serious concerns about the effectiveness of international efforts to counter terrorism financing. Further investigations and actions may be necessary to address these allegations and ensure accountability.

Global Security Alert: Possible Threat from Qatar

The recent coup in Nigeria is undermining Qatar's allied interests in Italy, Spain, and Morocco, as it raises doubts about the prospects of the Trans-Saharan Gas Pipeline project. This situation is impacting Qatar's opportunities with the Qatar Sanabil Project – a joint initiative with Qatar Charity designed to enhance Qatar's local influence through trade and economic infrastructure in Nigeria's Kaduna state. The project also intended to facilitate mass housing construction for vulnerable and underserved citizens, aligning with Mastercard's microfinancing expansion objectives. Close ties between Mastercard and Qatar's Finance Minister, Ali Bin Ahmed Al-Kuwari, have been established. The project also presented new avenues for the Muslim Brotherhood's activities in Africa.

The intersection of Qatar's interests with those of American and British overseers and beneficiaries of the Trans-Saharan project has led to a more aggressive approach instead of the initial gradual expansion. The most plausible strategy involves deploying cells and orchestrating high-profile terrorist acts as a pretext for launching an anti-terrorism operation in conjunction with NATO forces.

My informant at QNB reports feverish activities involving the transfer of funds to the Muslim Brotherhood and the mobilization of Brotherhood personnel from Jordan and Oman to the African continent. The Moroccan Attijariwafa Bank is used as an intermediary. Ali Bin Ahmed al Kuwari personally assumed control of this task, using his son, Abdulla Ali Al Kuwari, to implement unconventional financing schemes for the Brotherhood. The American portion of Brotherhood funding and its own diversionary groups likely flows through offshore accounts in Jordan (Arab Jordan Investment Bank) and Oman (Taageer Finance Company), both of which are managed by Abdulla Ali Al Kuwari. Yousuf Al-Kuwari, the Director of Qatar Charity, has also pledged to assemble over two hundred highly trained individuals with American training. The connection between Ali Al-Kuwari's son and Omani organizations suggests MI-6 involvement, with John Sawers serving as the British overseer. Sawers holds a position in the management of the Anglo-
