At least, that what some South African reporterette would have us all think.
Al-Qaeda’s first message to Barack Obama two weeks after his election to the US presidency shows a “panicked response” to his popularity, counterterrorism experts said on Wednesday.
In an internet message, al-Qaeda deputy Ayman Zawahiri lashed out against Obama for being “the enemy of Islam and Muslims” and a “house Negro”.
Despite the threatening air of Zawahiri’s verbal broadside, experts argue it reflects the terror group’s anxiety over a leader who may restore America’s image abroad and thus hamper the group’s ability to finance, justify and recruit for its extremist agenda.
So, the more socialists around the world love the United States (thanks to Barack Obama), terror will subside as quickly as the oceans recede. It’s as easy as that.
Do those people believe we are that stupid?
Fear? They are on their asses laughing at the Whun.
I feel soooo much safer now.
Oh they tremble all right, with excitement.
And, terrorists usually tremble at the thought of being appeased.
I’m sure they’re absolutely terrified…experts, please. Al-Qaeda will probably wait til Barry is in office and try to get some financing through the bailout money.
