The Obamanation Gets a Dire and Serious Warning From South Africa..

Al Qaeda: Don't Be Fooled By Obama
Bin Laden Deputy Warns Muslims In New Audio Tape That U.S. Is "Still
Full Of Hate ... Drowning In Greed"

Al Qaeda has released its first detailed response to the election of
Barack Obama. In an audio tape posted on jihadi Web forums Wednesday,
Osama bin Laden's deputy, Ayman Zawahri, admonishes Muslims to keep up
the fight against America, a country which he claims "is still full of
hate."

The terror group's media wing, as-Sahabm, released the 11-minute audio
featuring a statement by Zawahiri titled, “The Departure of Bush and
the Advent of Obama.”

Zawahri began his remarks by congratulating Muslims on the election of
Obama, describing it as, "the American people’s admission of defeat in
Iraq,” noting that the American people had voted for the candidate who
wanted to withdraw U.S. troops from Iraq.

He then addresses president-elect directly, warning him that President
Bush was leaving a legacy of “failure and crimes” in his wake.

Zawahiri tells Obama that his plan to re-concentrate military efforts
in Afghanistan is doomed to failure. He warns the new leader that by
doing so, not only will his forces be defeated, but he himself will be
met by the same fate as Mr. Bush and former Pakistani President Pervez
Musharraf - both of whom arguably saw their popularity wither thanks
to their respective actions in the U.S.-led war on terror.

“It appears that you don’t know anything about the Muslim Ummah
(nation) and its history, or the fate of the traitors who cooperated
with the invaders against it, and don’t know anything about the
history of Afghanistan and its free and defiant Muslim people. And if
you still want to be stubborn about America’s failure in Afghanistan,
then remember the fate of Bush and Pervez Musharraf, and the fate of
the Soviets and British before them,” Zawahri says in the audio.

Bin Laden's deputy labels Obama another president who has chosen a
stance of hostility against Islam and Muslims. He said Obama had
"abandoned his Muslim faith," and set up a direct comparison between
the president-elect and Malcom X, “who prided himself on his
fraternity with the Muslims… You represent the direct opposite of
honorable black Americans like Malik al-Shabazz, or Malcolm X, may
Allah have mercy on him.”
