On the website Shumukh-al-Islam, regularly visited by Al Qaeda, one disgruntled user issued a rallying cry for Muslims to attack the CBS late-night host. Apparently, Letterman mocked the death of Ilyas Kashmiri, a terrorist leader killed by U.S. forces in Pakistan in June.

Just as Sayyid (may Allah release him) did with the Jew Kahane.”
