Ayman Zawahiri, al-Qaeda’s number two man, sent a message to Obama and its not full of love for The One. al-Qaeda is not showing the love for Barack Obama. Its pretty disappointing seeing as how the Obama administration would bring about world peace. So far, it seems that world peace might be slightly out of his grasp for the moment anyway. He might have to work a little harder at it than merely being elected.
The left is so funny in how they think the rest of the world looks at things the same way Americans do. Like they were shocked when Venezuelan President and Petty Dictator Hugo Chavez called Obama ‘that black guy’ and the President of Italy referred to him jokingly as having a tan. The left thinks the rest of the world has the same politically correct sickness that Americans are afflicted with. But they aren’t. In fact, I would venture to guess that they don’t get the whole American guilt thing at all.
So now we have al-Qaeda taking their turn to put Obama to the test. Ayman Zawahiri is the heir apparent to the al-Qaeda organization should it ever be confirmed that Osama bin Laden is actually dead. He’s the only al-Qaeda person we’ve heard from in a while. Now he has come out and called Barack Obama a ‘House Negro’ or ‘House Slave’, depending on the transcription.
You can read the full transcript here. It basically translates to say, ‘I slap you across your face with my glove you infidel cur! Ha! Find me if you can! hahahahahahaha’
Of course, the purpose of the al-Qaeda challenge to Obama was undoubtedly as much for the Jihadists followers of al-Qaeda than for Obama. He was obviously letting his followers know that the ‘Great Satan’ is STILL the ‘Great Satan’. It also informs them that Obama winning the war is proof that Americans are surrendering in Iraq and al-Qaeda has won that front in the war.
Of course, this could be a good thing. It might be that the left will finally understand that we ARE at war! At least, they’ll be awfully mad that someone insulted their demagogue. You know what happens on the internet when someone isn’t drinking Obama’s koolaid - can you imagine what they will do about THIS!?!
The 60 million dollar question is how will Obama handle all this challenge. Not just this one, but the ones coming from all corners of the earth. After all, he did promise to understand and appreciate our enemies more so they’d be less angry with us bringing about peace on earth. Here’s what he said shortly after we were attacked by misunderstood, disenchanted, hopeless, angry young men who had been mistreated by the United States on 9/11/2001.

We must also engage, however, in the more difficult task of understanding the sources of such madness. The essence of this tragedy, it seems to me, derives from a fundamental absence of empathy on the part of the attackers: an inability to imagine, or connect with, the humanity and suffering of others.
Such a failure of empathy, such numbness to the pain of a child or the desperation of a parent, is not innate; nor, history tells us, is it unique to a particular culture, religion, or ethnicity. It may find expression in a particular brand of violence, and may be channeled by particular demagogues or fanatics. Most often, though, it grows out of a climate of poverty and ignorance, helplessness and despair.
We will have to make sure, despite our rage, that any U.S. military action takes into account the lives of innocent civilians abroad. We will have to be unwavering in opposing bigotry or discrimination directed against neighbors and friends of Middle Eastern descent. Finally, we will have to devote far more attention to the monumental task of raising the hopes and prospects of embittered children across the globe—children not just in the Middle East, but also in Africa, Asia, Latin America, Eastern Europe and within our own shores.

See! If only we understood them better. But wait. Obama does! Then why do they hate him? Oh. I do worry about what will come from this inexperienced man becoming the most powerful man in the world. The last time we faced this kind of crisis of leadership was when John F. Kennedy was tested by Russia. But things happen so much faster now than they did back then. The problem is, will we have time to act. Even worse, will we have time for Barack Obama to think through every aspect of every permutation of every reaction and then discuss with his 300 foreign policy advisers before he does anything. We’ll all be ashes and dust by the time he talks it out.
