    Al-Qaida endorsed McCain so it makes sense they would put that out. Obama's American roots are from Ireland. (Irish Angelican Kearney clan). We call him an "African-American" but a most proper "label "would be BLACK Irish American. Al-Qaida attempts to exploit our bigotry and our fears. This campaign of lies I've just participated in has woken me up now. I am no longer afraid therefore fear no longer controls my behaviour. No more manipulating me by McCain, Rush, Hannity, Al-Qaida or anybody else. (Going with the youth that's left the republican party.)

Ayman al-Zawahri Calls Obama a 'House Negro'
Published 11/19/2008 by jammiewearingfool@yahoo.com (JammieWearingFool) at JammieWearingFool
The caveman disses Obama . Al-Qaida No. 2 Ayman al-Zawahri is criticizing Barack Obama in a new message, calling him a demeaning racial term implying that the president-elect is a black American who does the bidding of whites. Al-Zawahri says in an audio message, which appeared on militant Web sites Wednesday, that Obama is "the direct opposite of honorable black Americans" like Malcolm X. He calls Obama a "house negro." The audio plays over still pictures of al-Zawahri, Malcolm X praying, and Obama with Jewish leaders. I doubt taunting Obama will do much good, and I'll be ...

Ayman al-Zawahri Calls Obama a House Negroe
Published 11/19/2008 at Stop The ACLU
Al-Zawahri obviously paid no attention during our elections to Obama. Let me clear. The American people have the right to criticize their President-elect, but he is still OUR President-elect and probably an American citizen, and we will rally together against the likes of you, your ignorant insults, and the dangers you pose to us. New audio has surfaced: Al-Qaida No. 2 Ayman al-Zawahri insulted Barack Obama in the terror group’s first reaction to his election, calling him a demeaning racial term implying that the president-elect is a black American who does the bidding of ...

al-Zawahiri the Ditto-Head
Published 11/19/2008 by Attaturk (noreply@blogger.com) at Rising Hegemon
Apparently Al Qaeda's No. 2 listens to Limbaugh, calls Obama a "house negro". Well, that's it, Zawahiri isn't just a deluded fuck, a terrorist, and an anti-semite, he's also a racist! That's the tipping point for me.

Barack Obama just a “House Negroe” to Al Queda

... 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.” link Will President Obama have the ability to order this man’s death having never killed so ...

Zawahiri gives Obama the Belafonte treatment
Published 11/19/2008 by Ed Morrissey at Hot Air » Top Picks
... If you can imagine Ayman al-Zawahiri singing The Banana Boat Song, perhaps you’ll get an idea of the irony — and the insult — of his message today to Barack Obama.  Zawahiri called Obama a “house slave”, which other translators changed to “house Negro”, in condemning Obama’s election.  If that sounds familiar, it should: Al-Qaida’s No. 2 leader used a racial epithet to insult Barack Obama in a message posted Wednesday, describing the president-elect in demeaning terms that imply he does the bidding of whites. The message appeared chiefly aimed at persuading Muslims and Arabs ...

You Do It to Yourself, You Do, and that's What Really Hurts
Published 11/19/2008 by Eric Martin at Obsidian Wings
... But back to the subject of own goals.  Today, Zawahiri released an audio tape in which he criticized President-elect Obama for, among other things, being a "house negro" (though the literal translation of the Arabic abeed al-beit is "house slave").  Compared to some of the other misteps mentioned above, this one is fairly minor, but still, the gratuitous injection of race into his critique of US policy will not serve al-Qaeda well in terms of PR.  Consider: the world at large has reacted with a remarkable level of excitement at the ...

Al-Qaeda’s Idea of Hope and Change

... “the Belafonte treatment,” condemning the president-elect — along Colin Powell and Condoleezza Rice — with what the media calls a “racially-charged epithet.” Depending on which translation you believe, Zawahiri either called Obama a “house-slave,” or used an even more “charged” phrase — the same insult Harry Belafonte and fellow black activists have hurled at Powell, Rice, and other African Americans who have the temerity to become prominent Republicans. Zawahiri — apparently channelling Jesse Jackson as well as Belafonte — also compared Obama unfavorably to black radical ...
