Al-Qaida's No. 2 insults says Obama, Powell and Rice are 'house negroes'

alqaidartl.jpg

Al-Qaida says President-elect Barack Obama is a "house negro" 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.

Ayman al-Zawahri, regarded as Al-Qaida's second in command behind Osama Bin Laden, said in the message, which appeared on militant Web sites, that Obama is "the direct opposite of honorable black Americans" like Malcolm X, the 1960s African-American rights leader.

In al-Qaida's first response to Obama's victory, al-Zawahri also called the president-elect - along with secretaries of state Colin Powell and Condoleezza Rice - "house Negroes."

Speaking in Arabic, al-Zawahri uses the term "abeed al-beit," which literally translates as "house slaves." But al-Qaida supplied English subtitles of his speech that included the translation as "house Negroes."

    Maybe Obama can go sit down with him, have a beer and then the terrorists will change their tune about Americans and start loving us.

    ZAawahiri is a retard who is suckin around for an @$$ whupping. Let's hope he gets it.

    And for the record, Abu Grahib was nothing. I think if this clown gets captured, he should get a cleveland steamer from a series of jewish soldiers (bonus points if female), force fed roast pork and bacon sandwiches (both for nutritional and religious value), and forced to use pages from the koran for toilet paper (or be tied down while it is used on him). If he wants something to whine about, let's accomodate him, by all means.

    So in addition to being a bloodthirsty terrorist group that has killed thousands, Al Qaeda also lacks respect for the racial decorum of the U.S.

    Shocking!

    It is interesting to see that the word worked its way into the vocabulary of Al Qaeda through Malcolm X.

    Then again, self hypnosis was part of why the inexperienced rock star got elected. Check out the Zogby exit polls. The sheeple were so misinformed it was laughable.

    Barney Frank and Chriss Dodd got us into this mess while McCain and other Republicans were trying to put tougher regulations on the loan Companies.

    I would post you a link with them telling us how safe and secure freddy and franny and that putting restrictions on them is ridiculous,but the person who signs your check won't let you look at it on his dime and we know heavens forbid you do any research on your own, so I won't waste my time on your lazy arse.


    Frank, Paulson and Dodd should be removed immediately and corruption charges should be filed against them amongst other Democrats.

    The last time the economy had lost these many jobs was 92 when the first bush was leaving office. Clinton had to come in and fix that and now the dems will have to come in and fix the mess the neo cons have given us again.

    Yea shaggy, thats why when I said who was to blame, I said it was BUSINESS, and the deregulation that allowed business to do what it did (at least in this country) was BI-PARTISAN (IE: The deregulation was done by BOTH Republicans AND Democrats).

    Clearly, between the two of us, I am the partisan one.


    I mean, you cant possibly be a partisan hack! Youre just blaming a problem that is world wide on Democrats! Thats not "Partisan" at all!
