'The view of Al Qaeda is "anybody but Bush."'
Edited on Wed Aug-11-04 03:04 PM by ElementaryPenguin
Translation: Al Qaeda supports John Kerry for President.

That is the most jaw dropping quote from this "anonymous" (Rove?) "intelligence" official. The Washington Post can sit on the incredible Iraqi children being tortured by American soldiers story - and report this propagandist bullshit as if it's the gospel! What amazing f*cking whores they've become!

At least if Kerry or Edwards get assassinated in the upcoming weeks we'll know that Al Qaeda did it - we won't need any inquiry - and the Busheviks can get right to bombing/invading the guilty/responsible NATION (in this case, undoubtedly IRAN - or whoever's up next in the PNAC playbook)!

:puke:
:argh:
:mad:

Things getting more pathetically low in this race every day!

20. Even FOX News ran it...
http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,114489,00.html

The statement tells American voters that Abu Hafs al-Masri supports the re-election campaign of President Bush: "We are very keen that Bush does not lose the upcoming elections."

The statement said Abu Hafs al-Masri needs what it called Bush's "idiocy and religious fanaticism" because they would "wake up" the Islamic world.

6. al Qaeda: "WE WANT BUSH TO WIN"
The statement said it supported U.S. President George W. Bush in his reelection campaign, and would prefer him to win in November rather than the Democratic candidate John Kerry, as it was not possible to find a leader "more foolish than you (Bush), who deals with matters by force rather than with wisdom."

In comments addressed to Bush, the group said:

"Kerry will kill our nation while it sleeps because he and the Democrats have the cunning to embellish blasphemy and present it to the Arab and Muslim nation as civilisation."

"Because of this we desire you (Bush) to be elected."

2. We don't need to look any farther than that line
to know that the "terror alerts" are politically driven.

Disgusting.

18. You're correct - the Times not the Post. And Yahoo put it up as a main
Story! Think of all the stories they've elected not to enter as a lead story.

25. Good catch, lutherj! The Washington Times is Rev. Moon's paper...
And yet another total * propaganda arm. Not a credible source of information. At all.

16. This probably impresses Bush's idiot base - and turns everyone else off!
Problem is - that idiot, nincompoop base amounts to almost half the friggin' country!

15. Not according to Fox News from March 18th.

Islamists Declare Spain Truce, Endorse Bush

..snip..

In its statement, Abu Hafs al-Masri said it was calling a truce in Spain to give the socialist government that was elected Sunday, three days after the train attacks, time to carry out its pledge to withdraw troops from Iraq.

The group appeared to boast it had the power to change governments.

"We change and destroy countries," the statement said. "We even influence the international economy, and this is God's blessing to us."

The statement tells American voters that Abu Hafs al-Masri supports the re-election campaign of President Bush: "We are very keen that Bush does not lose the upcoming elections."

The statement said Abu Hafs al-Masri needs what it called Bush's "idiocy and religious fanaticism" because they would "wake up" the Islamic world.

17. But that didn't help Bushler's numbers so "Al Qaeda" had a change
Of heart. The terrorists were undoubtedly moved by Kerry's speech. This maybe the only bounce the corporate press will recognize for the Dems! Kerry was able to sway Al Qaeda!

:crazy:
:silly:

19. I personally know two analysts
Edited on Wed Aug-11-04 03:33 PM by prodigal_green
Who are not voting for Bush. This is total crap. I doubt very highly if they would side with the 'qaedas.

Best quote from one of my friends when I asked about whether or not there was bad intelligence: I suppose if we had put it in coloring-book form he might have understood it.

28. Anyone higher up in the Al Qaeda chain of command than...
Cheney and Rumsfeld? I see Bin Laden as a mere foot soldier - a lieutenant maybe!

27. exactly, except 180 degrees in the opposite direction
"the view of al qaeda" is fantasy, something some propogandist made up.

I once had a dream that the Democratic candidate got assassinated. Woke me up.

30. What Bull****. Yeah, Al Qeada is on the run. They are cowering in their
caves at thought of another Bush term.

That's why we have terror warnings every other damn day. He's doing such a damn fine job.
