This is what madness looks like.
“When the confrontation begins, strike like champions who do not want to go back to this world. Shout, ‘Allahu Akbar,’ because this strikes fear in the hearts of the non-believers.”
That’s what 9/11 lead hijacker Mohammed Atta wrote in the jihad checklist found in his baggage 15 years ago after the terror attacks took 2,996 innocent lives.
Seconds before United Airlines Flight 93 crashed in Shanksville, Pennsylvania on that day, the last sound passengers heard was the hijackers chanting “Allahu Akbar.” The official transcript of the flight recorder translated the Arabic taunts:

10:03:03
Allah is the greatest.
10:03:04
Allah is the greatest.
10:03:06
Allah is the greatest.
10:03:06
Allah is the greatest.

10:03:09
Allah is the greatest. Allah is the greatest.
10:03:09
Allah is the greatest. Allah is the greatest.
