One of Our Own

oh yeah...thanks for the reality check al qaeda

I think it is time en-which the people of the United States start to act their age and not their shoe size. We as American's are in a deep financial hole due in part to a spoiled brat idiot cracker whom throught clout became President and virtually lied through his teeth for the exception to commit our nation to an military action against a terrorist organization that was stateless and covert in action.
Instead of fighting a war in that manner maybe W should have fought fire with fire and fought this terrorist threat with the means of covert operations in the same manner which Israel did so after their Male Weight lifting Olympic team was murdered in Bonn, Germany in the 1970's against the Black September PLO faction that carried it out.
We, not only are going to have to pay back in one way or another the $700 Billion but we also have to figure in the war in Iraq and Afghanistan but also what the Federal Government owes Haliburton and other private contractors in both Iraq and Afghanistan; so now instead of every household flipping the bill for $450.00 dollars per household the cost goes up to roughly $1,200.00 plus once all the numbers are crunched. So ask yourself a very serious question. Do you think it is about time for all American's to stop their petty outbursts and for once Unite and do our part to help re-store our nation to it's former glory, and for once act as a United Nation and stop the racist crap and except and support our newly elected President. We are about to enter our ninth year of the new millenium and yet instead of progressing we have allowed that spoiled nitwit whom drags branches around his ranch in Crawford, Texas sort of like the written accounts of Caligula, whom use to carry heavy stones and walk backwards mumbling to himself as he wandered the streets of Rome the whole time while he was the Emperor of the Roman Empire; unlike Caligula the Pretorian Guard did not stab him to death, and also unlike Caligula the empire did not break out into a civil war. Bush will be gone after January 20th, 2009 and he can go back to his ranch and dress himself in his Lone Ranger costume and drag some more branches around while Cheney learns how to shoot a gun without endangering those around him. I think America has had enough of Bush; and as far as Al Qaeda, they need to do their research, first off Barack Obama is a Kenyan name not an islamic name and when it come to history it was the Berbers whom traded probably Barack's ancestors and led them in chains from Timbucktoo and led them on what was basically a death march through the Saraha Desert to markets in Arabia, and North Africa. So to Al Qaeda, think before you talk remember you have boold on your hands and it was the Arabs whom operated the largest of slave markets in Tunisia and Persia.

You can tell that Al Qaeda wants to be sophisticated in its PR, but it just doesn't stick. It seems silly. Al Qaeda would have said the same thing about Powell or Condi RIce. They are afraid because they are really losing it. They hoped to inspire generations with their rhetoric against rich white people in private jets. Well, that era might be over, and Obama will steal the show. America is changing for the better. It is finally really embracing its diversity. Just as FDR stole the thunder of the communists during the Depression, Obama will be reforming America real soon now into a country where hate and fear cannot take hold. From here on, Al qaeda will be reacting, not acting. The war against al qaeda will be won in changing the hearts and minds of white and brown people who have not renounced hate.

In their hearts, people want to go along with this Obama change. I hope it lasts awhile.

Good article Mr Benchemsi, very insightful observation.

The US is getting out of Iraq within 16 months anyway. Obama has nothing to do with this. Of course the media will give Obama credit and not Bush. I truly believe that Al Qaeda has been weakened and I thank the US military and Bush for that.

.*** Zawahiri's words have nothing to do with hate, and everything to do with undermining the Americans' respect for their own president and using the old racial divides to do it. ***

Hilarious. If I were Obama I would hope this message receives as much airplay as possible. For a president still suspected by some as being a crypto-Muslim, this is solid gold. And AQ is not dumb enough to think that they're going to alienate Obama from African-Americans with a stray comment about "house negros".

Their audience, AS ALWAYS, is other Muslims of the world.

I don't see a point in the catchy title when in the news article is - please don't like him - and I do not interpret that as a hate message but more attune to not give credit to him alone to judge the future and to reserve that for their own judgment. Muslims have a low controlled resistance when it is like or dislike or hate or favor. If they turned to the beginning of the stone's story it was a like for it which grew into a favor of it and that got Islam of and ticking as a larger religion than it was prior to the stone since it was renegade religion that was being fought against Muslims were known for attacking innocent people and cities to overthrow their right to worship.
