Al-Qaida No. 2 insults Obama in new audio message


www.breitbart.com
CAIRO,Egypt (AP) - Al-Qaida No. 2 Ayman al-Zawahri insulted Barack Obama in the terror group's first reaction to his election, calling him a demeaning racial term implying that the president-elect is a black American who does the bidding of whites.

The message appeared chiefly aimed at persuading Muslims and Arabs that Obama does not represent a change in U.S. policies. Al-Zawahri said in the message, which appeared on militant Web sites Wednesday, that Obama is "the direct opposite of honorable black Americans" like Malcolm X, the 1960s African-American rights leader.

Al-Zawahri also called Obama—along with secretaries of state Colin Powell and Condoleezza Rice—"house negroes."

no, they won't but our presence in the middle east gives them an excuse. If we up and left, they'd need a new excuse. The old one, if I recall correctly, was our presence in Saudi Arabia. If they revert back to that cause, they might have issues with the Saudi's and I think they prefer things the way they are.

I'm sorry but before 9/11 we weren't occupying their lands. Now after 9/11 hundreds of thousands of Muslims are dead and occupied two countries. Not exactly the way they wanted. But then cters here believe that AQ works for the CIA so we don't need to talk about this.

Oh really?

So these radical Islamists never had a problem with us before the war in Iraq?


Sure they did they bombed us in Lebonon when Reagan was president but once again what the hell were we doing over there in the first place? If we werent there we wouldnt of been bombed would be?

The Iranian Hostage crisis which once again was because we overthrew Irans democratically elected government and inserted the Shah who made Sadam look like Mr Rogers. When the Shah was overthrown and they found out about us putting him in there the hostage situation occurred.

They bombed the Cole once again why the hell is our military in their lands. If Russia had their ships over here would would throw a bomb or two at them wouldnt we?

We need to stay out of their business. We should of let them handle Iraq like they wanted to and we need to get out of this we need to police the world mentality or American Exceptionalism as it is called. We cant afford it because we are bankrupt and its not our job.



Edit to add: Our insertion and backing of Israel doesnt help either. In my opinion Israel through two war victories has won the land they are on but doesnt mean people dont hold resentment and doesnt mean that it wont cause wars in the future. Doesnt mean we need to go and fight their battles either. They want the land so bad then let them fight for it like they have in the past.
