The Occasional Observer

More evidence that al Qaeda does not view Obama as a "friendly": a new message from their #2 criticizing Obama for his position on Israel, Afghanistan, and calling him a "house negro."

This is partly an attempt to try to coerce Obama to cave and change his positions, I'm sure, but importantly: Al-Zawahri also urged Muslims to continue attacks against "criminal America". So no change in policy of planned violence against the US. Hopefully the change of Obama's homeland security policies compared to Bush do not render us less safe.
