Al-Qaeda to Obama: Let My People Go!

Oh great, now two Guantanamo Bay prisoners have shown up in an al-qaeda propaganda film. By all means let's close the place down. Sheesh.

You Mess With the High Life... and the High Life Messes With You!

This is hysterical, an al Qaeda terrorist in a Colorado Federal prison is suing his jailers to demand a Walkman (how Eighties), television, English newspapers and Arabic newspapers. No mention of the Playboy Channel, nor has he demanded his MTV. What can you say? Son, you messed with with Western Civilization, so Western Civilization is going to mess with you.

Mohamed Al-Owhali has complained that he only receives month-old, censored versions of USA Today. There really is no hometown news in that USA Today State by State section for Mr. Al-Owhali, so that's a shame too. We can also be relieved that Mr. Al-Owhali is not getting any twelve-packs of High Life in his cell.

Who Does This Guy Think He Is, Leona Helmsley?

Brit Hume’s site the Political Grapevine has this great story about a former Gitmo prisoner who has complained that he was “forced to use unscented deodorant and shampoo, had to play sports with a ball that did not bounce, had his baby pictures taken away, was not given a DVD player, and the people who cleaned his cell left marks on the walls.” You just can’t make that stuff up; unscented deodorant? Who knew?

Is Obama an Al Queda Strategist?

In this morning’s Chicago Sun Times Washington correspondent Lynn Sweet has another in her long line of Obama puff pieces. In this one she explained Obama’s comments on Hillary Clinton’s Iraq stance. In the article Sweet quotes Obama as saying, “what I think good strategy dictates is that we begin the process of redeploying our troops.” Great strategy Senator, Run Away, Run Away! That Barak he really is a strong “leader”, if you want to fail. Mr. Barak Hussein Obama is sounding more and more like an Al Qaeda strategist every day.

Update: The title is a rhetorical question based on the fact that Senator Obama's "strategy" suggestion for the US is very similar, if not the same as that given to the US by al qaeda leaders during numerous threatening television broadcasts. It saddens me that so many of my fellow Chicagoans have been using the same rhetoric in regards to the Iraq war as used by the most despicable oppressors of my lifetime, the jihadists.
