Not Terrifying

Ayman al Zawahiri tries to unite the American people again by reminding those in the know how many Arabs Muslims have viewed all blacks and still do in 2008, regardless of station.

Al-Qaeda delivered a harsh, personal message to President-elect Barack Obama on Wednesday, tagging him with a racial slur in an attempt to undercut his political appeal in parts of the world where the network has recently tried to expand.

In [an] 11-minute video, Zawahiri unfavorably compares the first black U.S. president-elect to Malcolm X, the Nation of Islam leader who was assassinated 43 years ago. Zawahiri says Obama, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice and her predecessor, Colin L. Powell, all "confirmed" Malcolm X's definition of a "house Negro," a derogatory term used to describe black leaders who cater to white interests.

Hey Ayman, shouldn't you be trying to scare people into converting to Islam instead of flapping your gums?

Zawahiri used the word 'abd' which means both slave and Negro. Big Media seems to have only just translated this magical bit of evidence of Arabic racism and are scandalized, no doubt because their hero has been insulted. Soon they will "discover" that Arab Islamists are enslaving black Africans right now! The good thing is that more black Americans will find out about it as well. Hopefully.

Has someone notified Harry Belafonte by now? He may have "house negro" (bowdlerized) copyrighted by now.

Is AQ #2 really that freaking dumb? Calling Barry a "house negro" is one of the best ways to get reluctant independents and conservatives to get behind him. I know I'm torqued off.

...And cue the rabidly paranoid rightists to "question the timing" in 3, 2, 1...

I heard some clown on TV whipping out the "moral equivalency" card about this yesterday, as if an organization of terrorist scum is somehow worthy of being on the same level as the US citizenry.

Hmmm. I guess every cloud does have a silver lining! :)

It'll be interesting to watch the leftist illuminati try to figure out how to interpret the sheer hate shown by the Islamist extremists, who they've been trying to justify and make excuses for ever since the terrorist incidences.

It may really scare them to realize that terrorist don't just blow up buildings on Republican watches; that perhaps, rather than acting out against a conservative government, they were acting out against America, period.

Ayman Al Z, coke bottle glasses, prayer "bump" in the middle of his forehead, surgeon not so extraordinaire...who would dearly love to see all those women in his native Egypt forced into female circumcision, aka female genital mutilation...

But I digress.

Osama and Ayman missives (purported) of recent years have borne the stamp of the worldview and "thinking" (term used loosely) of Adam Yahiye Gadahn, that charming former "into heavy metal" southern CA denizen who has been "advising" them for years. Adam settled down over there in Waziristan with a bride (or brides) and, at one point without any confirmation, was reported to have been killed.

Who knows ? but some of the screwy political and cultural statements coming out of AQ in Waziristan appear to bear Adam's stamp.

From Martin Caiden's "A Torch to the Enemy" (about the WW2 firebombing campaign against Japan):

"After the bombing of Pearl Harbor, survivers found leaflets dropped by the Japanese, saying "G*d D*mned Americans all go H*ll" period.

This was the Japanese idea of psychological warfare against us, and it proved one thing immediately; while we knew precious little about them, they knew even less about us."

That seems to describe the situation here.

Like Hitler calling Gandhi racist.

That's because the left-wing illuminati have them all believing we'll be friends, but it won't be like that, watch.
