Anyone have the quote from Al Qaeda about Bush vs. Kerry?
It was where they would prefer Bush because Muslims might buy the peace talk from Kerry? Where was this posted, Al Jazeera?

1. Here you go
"It is not possible to find a leader more foolish than Bush, who
deals with matters by force rather than with wisdom. Kerry will kill
our nation while it sleeps because he and the Democrats have the
cunning to embellish blasphemy and present it to the Arabs and Muslim
nation as civilization. Because of this we desire Bush to be
elected."

Al-Qaeda statement, 3/17/04

6. embellishing blasphemy
The 2 corporate parties are both imperialist, and i can understand
why the AQ statement prefers military imperialism to pure corporatism.

It presents the democratic-version of economic imperialism rather
well, and indeed, it enriches some people, whereas the militarist
one only impoverishes.

Fascinating then how many americans prefer not to "embellish
blasphemy" and ram in down others throats? Perhaps 10%? If there
were a single issue poll nationwide, how many would vote imperialist?
or for a republic?

World war 2 bankrupted all the parties who fought it, especially all
the direct combatants who fought on their own ground. This world
war 3 has been admitted to north america by bush, and it will have
a similar result leaving only, at the end of it all, a bankrupt and
devastated fearful nation, and a devastated fearful opponent. Stupid
people fight wars, and surely al queda prefer their opposition to
be as stupid, predictable and totally anti-freedom and anti-american,
so they can pervert the cause of anglo-westernism the world over.

It is a brilliant strategy, and plays easily off the neanderthal
brains that hum about in the white house and congress. Al Queda
IS the bush administration. THe only misleading thing in the
statement is that it is the policy of the bush white house to be pro
al queda.

8. Imperialism with an iron fist (BushCo) versus imperialism
Edited on Tue Sep-14-04 10:39 AM by coalition_unwilling
with an iron fist inside a velvet glove (Kerry). Neither party really cares much about Al Quaida, except insofar as it offers a venue for verbal gymnastics.

Al Quaida exists because legitimate grievances with post-industrial imperialism exist in the Third World. There seems to be little recognition of this fact by leaders of the First World, nor that the protest slogan "No Justice, No Peace" means that without justice there can be no meaningful peace. After all, Germany 1933-39 was at 'peace' but was hardly a paragon of justice.

Having indicted Kerry for a 'soft imperialism,' I still plan to vote for him in Nov. Why? Among other reason, because Kerry strikes me as responsive to external ideas and facts, whereas Bush epiotomizes non-responsiveness to external ideas and facts that don't conform to his pre-conceived (and outmoded) world view.

2. Since when does al queda issue press releases? You don't really
think "THEY" said this, do you? No offense....

The point is that the white house is talking for "al queda'... and to believe the rhetoric is patent isn't realistic.

3. Not al Qaeda per se
It's the Abu Hafs al Mazri Martyrs Brigade. In a statement claiming responsibility for the Madrid train bombings, they included some of their political thinking.
