al-Zawahr Insults Obama as ‘House Slave’ - Issues Warning.
The number two man in Al-Qaeda, Ayman al-Zawahri, called Barack Obama a ‘House Negro’ in a newly released video tape. See the video.

Al Qaeda Will Test Obama
In the video, which labels Americans as criminals, Obama is compared with one of Al-Qaeda’s heroic Americans, Malcolm X, using footage from his radical statements. The 60’s revolutionary used the term to explain that black people needed to stand up to white people using violent means. The ironic thing is that Obama himself praised Malcolm X and borrowed from his speeches.
The Arabic term that he uses is “abeed al-beit,” which literally translates into “house slave” in English. But the subtitles displayed in the video communicate the intended meaning as “house negro.”
One of the images in the video is Obama wearing a Jewish cap while meeting with Jewish leaders at the Wailing Wall. At the beginning of the primary season, Barack Obama came across as anti-Jewish in some of his statements. As that became a campaign issue, he seized opportunities to embrace Israel to make Jewish-American voters comfortable with his candidacy. See the full transcript here.
The video contains an ominous warning as al-Qaeda becomes the latest foreign threat to seize upon the Obama victory. As Russia, Venezuela and Iran have all signaled tests of the new American president, al-Qaeda warns Obama to brace for more attacks soon.
Historians will remember the last inexperienced president to be elected to office, John Fitzgerald Kennedy. He was quickly tested by the Soviet Union in the Cuban missile crisis, a challenge which almost resulted in the mutual annihilation of both powers. We can expect Obama to face similar challenges in a more dangerous world the next four years.

If there is one thing I can’t tolorate, it’s rac**t terrorist. They are so insensitive to the civil rights movement of the 60’s.
I thought if Obama was elected, they would like us and would stop fighting us.

The videos are designed to p*ss us off. it’s interesting that all of a sudden they think Malcolm was a great man when Middle eastern muslims have a long history of not accepting the nation of islam. it’s also silly that any one is even paying attention to this video.
oh, and i think this is going to work out just fine for Obama. cant say he’s muslim with terrorist ties now. that’s probably why Al-qaeda waited until now to release this video. They probably thought releasing it during the campaign would have won him the election.

Dana, the point you miss, whether one thinks Obama has terrorist ties or not is that he is an apologist for radical islam as in the case with Iran where he sees no need to set terms before we have dialogue.
Compound that with his less than believable support for Israel, his ignorance on Iraq, and you’ve got a problem.
We have a problem.
How do you think he would handle Kenya if a situation broke out there with his terrorist relatives in the field ?
Would he exercise restraint or do what needs to be done ?
We actually have no idea, do we ? Because no one ever asked.

Y’all hate Obama and everything about him, but perhaps, just perhaps, this might make you feel like rallying around him a little? There are issues which are larger than everyday political posturing and bickering.
Micky, you are the one with a problem. Like, a problem with thought processes, or whatever.
November 19th, 2008 at 10:01 pm
Edward.
You mean the thought processes that got Obama elected ?
If anything happens you’ll have no one to blame but yourselves for bringing into office one of the most unqualified men ever to hold that office.
Hes on record as being an apologetic appeaser, Jesse Jackson warned Jews of an Obama presidency and he has said things that can only lead us to believe he will not prevail in Iraq, made most evident by his numerous statements that he would move U.S. Iraqi forces to Afghanistan.
Dont talk to me about thought process if you can even put together the pieces to a simple puzzle that will look like a middle east in chaos.
Rally around his half a$$ visions ?
No thanks bub, yer on yer own.
I want him out of office, ASAP.
Of course, you gutless wonders were all warned what the response from radical islam would be if Obama was elected.
Naturally you were all as clueless on that issue as you were that we will be a one party state, letting the biggest conglomeration of idiots that we’ve ever seen be in charge of this country.
In addition to this video has it occured to as to why every crackpot dictator in this world supported Obamas election ?
Kumbaya ? Hardly.
They all know they will be able to push him around like feeble little imp.
Process that.

In a more dangerous world? Than 1960? Really?

The main point of this video is that Obama is nothing more than a pawn of Jews and Israelis.
Which happens to be the truth.

well they almost got al zawhari twice by my estimates. The second time was in pakistan when the paki’s had his group trapped in a compound but took many hours before they invaded it as if told to wait. When they did they found a tunnel near a mile long to second house from which some people apparently escaped back into the mountains. think of the value of a house with a mile long tunnel. That would belong to a high ranking warlord at the very least and he was probably the host of al zawhiri. Apparently for a while when the paki’s would go after a group of foriegn fighters the isi got involved in helping the high ranking ones escape right in the midst of the confusion. Its only changed since the New prime minister has taken over and changed the head of the army group that controls the isi, but it will take more time to change its culture and players who apparently still fun their own rogue operations. The isi helped create the taliban and shelter it and nurture it and pakistan doesn’t like the current afghanistan government. They only give an occasional result to the Americans at opportune times, otherwise they do what they want.

I get the feeling that this was actually translated to make it sound more offensive to an American reader. House slave is the literal translation, while I think American’s would react more negatively to “House negro.”
