Following are excerpts from pro-Bin Laden rallies in the Gaza Strip, which was posted on the Internet on May 20, 2011:

At Gaza rally:

Crowds: There is no god but Allah.

America is the enemy of Allah.

[…]

At Rafah rally:

Crowds: Our souls and our blood we will give for you, oh Osama.

Our souls and our blood we will give for you, oh Osama.

Our souls and our blood we will give for you, oh Osama.

Demonstrator: There is no god but Allah.

Crowds: There is no god but Allah.

Demonstrator: Sheik Osama is loved by Allah.

Crowds: Sheik Osama is loved by Allah.

Demonstrator: There is no god but Allah.

Crowds: There is no god but Allah.

Sheik Munir Al-'Aydi: This blessed man, Osama, Allah's mercy upon him, has given his money and his soul for the Jihad for the sake of Allah. At a time when real men are few, he united the nation around monotheism. Allah's mercy upon you, oh Osama. You were good in your life, and you were good in your death. That man Osama thwarted the American plan in this region, and did what no man has ever done before, especially in our times. He is not a man like all men. He is a man who was true to the pledge he made before Allah.

That is the man who said: "I pledge before Allah that America and its people will enjoy no security before we enjoy true security in Palestine." He was always devoted to the land of Palestine. He was always devoted to the liberation of the holy places. He was always devoted to the instating of the law of Allah.

[…]

Today, this proud lion has been dumped in the sea by the country of heresy and prostitution, America. They wanted him dead or alive.

[…]

That is the man who brandished his weapon to fight the enemies of Allah. He led the Global Front for Jihad against America and its allies, the worshippers of the cross. He rightfully earned the title of the imam of our times.

Demonstrator: Say: "Allah Akbar."

Crowds: Allah Akbar!

Demonstrator: Say: "Allah Akbar."

Crowds: Allah Akbar!

Demonstrator: Say: "Allah Akbar."

Crowds: Allah Akbar!

Sheik Munir Al-'Aydi: That is the man who shattered the crosses. That is the man who brought the Americans to their knees. That is the man who humiliated the hypocrites in the East and West. That man through whom Allah distinguished men of truth from men of falsehood.

[…]

In the days of Ahmad Ibn Hanbal, when there were claims that the Koran was man-made, the scholars of those times would say that you could distinguish between a man of truth and a hypocrite by his love for Imam Ahmad. In our times, we too say that you can tell a believer from a hypocrite by his love for Osama Bin Laden.

Crowds: Allah Akbar!

Allah Akbar!

Allah Akbar!

Allah Akbar!

Sheik Munir Al-'Aydi: You are not dead, oh Osama. You live on in the hearts of us all. Osama lives on in the heart of every man. All our sons are Osama. Our entire nation is Osama.
