December 1, 2003 -- WONDER why Muslim terrorists have targeted Muslim nations such as Turkey and Saudi Arabia? Try reading the rants of Zacarias Moussaoui, the bored al Qaeda jihadist sitting in a U.S. jail.

Moussaoui, the Osama bin Laden loyalist charged as the "20th hijacker," has scrawled hundreds of motions from his Alexandria, Va., cell, offering a glimpse into the twisted mind of a terrorist.

Among other things, he plainly sees "half an enemy" as more contemptible than a full one.

Some of Moussaoui's writings are just sick. He mocks victims of the 9/11 attacks and talks of attacking the next World Trade Center. Often he ends a motion with a request for a Boeing 747-400 with "1st class, no smoking, no alcohol, no women and one day Allah willing, no landing."

The most frequent targets of his scorn and ridicule are U.S. Judge Leonie Brinkema, who's gone to great lengths to accommodate his bizarre defense methods, and the "blood sucker" government-appointed defense lawyers who are trying to save him from the lethal needle.

He labels Brinkema "little bitch" and "dirty joke" and "daughter of evil." He's furious that she's a woman in what he sees as a man's job. He mocks his Jewish lawyer with various anti-Semitic insults, refers to an Asian-American attorney as "Kamikaze" and calls others of his defense team "fat megalo pig" and "racist."

He barely comments on the prosecutors. These enemies are a fact of life to Moussaoui. Indeed, He wrote of his defense team: "The fact that I do not trust them - unlike the government - prevents me to receive legal advice. Let me be clear that I find them so repulsive as unbelievers that I never even shake their hand."

What disgusts him most are phony pals. Moussaoui believes his own defense lawyers - and the "death judge" - are just as committed to killing him as Bush and the prosecutors.

The same "logic" holds for "fellow" Muslims. In recent motions, Moussaoui has slammed Syrian President Bashar Al-Assad as the "traitor of Golan" and Mohamed VI as the "Jewish King of Morocco" for cooperating with the "wicked Anglo-Zionist persecution" of fellow al Qaeda terrorist Mohammed Zammar.

To al Qaeda, Islam is about death: Just days before the bombings in Turkey, Moussaoui chillingly declared, "Jihad Strike - Ramadan is the Jihad month where all the Mujahids increase their operations (especially suicide ones) . . . no drink, no food, no woman, only blood."

It boils down to this: Kill everyone, especially the Muslim "pretenders," until the only people left all think like him.
