You didn’t really think that Al Qaeda’s deputy leader, Ayman al-Zawahiri, could become any more of an asshole, but it turns out that the intellectual architect of a reactionary band of religious fanatics doesn’t exactly have enlightened views on race relations. Check out what he says in his latest tape about Barack Obama. AP via TPM:
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."
Who would have known that electing a black president also turns out to have an information-operations component as a bonus? We should want to publicize, far and wide, that Zawahiri is a racist. Drive this discrediting message into the heart of the Muslim world. I wonder what the tens of millions of African and African-American Muslims think about Zawahiri’s charming statement.

Al-Zawahri needs to get out more. Sounds like he never read the autobiography Malcolm X penned with Alex Haley. Secondly, it was Malcolm X’s trip to Mecca that turned his life around. It was on that trip that Malcolm realized that reverse racism wasn’t the way to go. That all races were indeed equal.
Egads! Those Africans will shocked, just shocked.
