This is what it sounds like when doves cry
June 2, 2009 7:44 pm Foreign Policy, Islam and the WestThe One’s new tone of accommodation towards the Islamic world isn’t playing in Peshawar, much less Peoria:
A message attributed to the deputy leader of al-Qaeda has denounced Barack Obama as a “criminal” on the eve of the US president’s Middle East trip. Ayman al-Zawahiri said Mr Obama’s “bloody messages” would not be concealed by “polished words”
[...]
He called Mr Obama “that criminal who came seeking, with deception, to obtain what he failed to achieve on the ground after the mujahideen ruined the project of the Crusader America in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Somalia”.
[...]
[Obama] will travel to Egypt on Thursday, where he will make a speech at Cairo University. In the audience will be 10 senior figures from the banned Islamist group the Muslim Brotherhood, the BBC’s Christian Fraser reports from Cairo.
And the Muslim Brotherhood is equally charmed by the prospect of that visit.
So is the Salafist troglodyte community.
