Qaeda wants Republicans, Bush “humiliated”: Web video
An al Qaeda leader has called for President George W. Bush and the Republicans to be “humiliated,” without endorsing a party in the upcoming U.S. presidential election, according to an Internet video posting.
“O God, humiliate Bush and his party, O Lord of the Worlds, degrade and defy him,” Abu Yahya al-Libi said at the end of sermon marking the Muslim feast of Eid al-Fitr, in a video posted on the Internet.
Libi, a top al Qaeda commander believed to be living in Afghanistan or Pakistan, called for God’s wrath to be brought against Bush equating him with past tyrants in history.
The remarks were the first from a leading al Qaeda figure referring, albeit indirectly, to the U.S. elections. Muslim clerics often end sermons by calling on God to guide and support Muslims and help defeat their enemies.
It still amazes me that there are those who support a guy that KNOWN terrorists also support. I mean seriously, does that make you feel safe? I know the economy is important, but if you’re dead, it won’t matter if you pay too much in taxes, or have a job, or can pay your house payment. Dead is dead, and these people want YOU dead!
