Okay, I need to mention something I heard today . . . and I believe.
The American government translated the rant and used the word Al-Queda, however, I heard someone else that translated and they said the word was al-que (not sure on the spelling)
Al-Queda means "the base." Al-que (loosely translated) means to sit idly by.
So, apparently they were saying ""Nation of Islam. Is there any excuse left to sit idly by?"
I think the jumping to the conclusions that this was Al-Queda could be a mistake, especially since Iraq is not exactly their stomping grounds.
