They would benefit from higher gas prices, as the Saudis would have more money to donate to keep the locals quite.
Unless you are whoosing me, however you spell it.
Well, I have learned something from all this. I had no idea that Malcolm X was so highly regarded by al-Qaeda.
So… these guys claim that Obama was elected because of his plans to leave Iraq, so they make a video to taunt him about it, using 40-year-old racial politics as a theme. In a way, I’m vaguely disillusioned. Ever since 9/11, al-Qaeda has been this huge international menace lurking just out of sight, tentacles infesting the entire landscape of global politics; poised to strike again at any moment.
Now Bush is leaving, and instantly the whole facade comes crashing down. All of a sudden they’re incapable of even crafting a successfully insulting video. After all the Yellow Alerts and shoe X-rays, it comes down to this; and we’re left with the unavoidable suspicion that these guys were just the terrorist equivalent of a furniture salesman who wins the Mega Slot jackpot in Vegas against all odds, then pisses it all away trying to convince hookers that he’s Mel Gibson’s brother-in-law.
These guys have had eight golden years of unlimited validation and respect, and now they’re scared assless that the new guy probably can’t be goaded into playing the same game. The days of wine and roses are over, guys.
Its always the #3 guy who’s getting his chips cashed. Al-Z is number two, Osama is number one, number three is dead, and dead again, and dead again, and so forth…
(Hey, anybody remember when they told us that 75% of AlQ’s leadership was wiped out? Ah, good times…)
