Re: Al-Qaida chief warns Obama of attack
I also thought it was a nice touch when they called Obama a "house negro".

In al-Qaida's first response to Obama's victory, al-Zawahri also called the president-elect—along with secretaries of state Colin Powell and Condoleezza Rice—"house negroes."

Speaking in Arabic, al-Zawahri uses the term "abeed al-beit," which literally translates as "house slaves." But al-Qaida supplied English subtitles of his speech that included the translation as "house negroes."

Although I doubt that any of the rhetoric in this latest release will greatly influence Obama's plans on how to tackle the issue of terrorism.
