Is Al Qaeda aiming for a McCain victory?

They may have been trying to take hostages in the attack on the embassy in Yemen.

Remember the last time terrorists took Americans hostage at an Embassy?

Remember how they released those hostages when Reagan was inaugurated? It wasn't because they were afraid, it was because they had a victory when Reagan became President.

This goes along with intercepted messages not told to us by the so-called 'liberal' media that Al Qaeda is glad Bush got reelected and that they are also glad that the US invaded Iraq as well.

Make no mistake about it, Al Qaeda is rooting for John McCain.

1. Sure.

No question about it.

2. Their strategy worked

in the last two Presidential elections...

[eShirl]

3. they know Republicans have done more to destroy this country than they could ever dream of

so, yeah

[malaise]

4. That may be true but this time they won't use Al Qaeda

because AQ has no connection with Iran. From what I heard on BBC yesterday, I suspect that 'Islamic Jihad' will be the group used this time around because that connects Iran. What's more it ties in neatly with the DVD the right wing newspaper is circulating for free.

5. Wrong question.

Who is "al Qaeda"?

[bemildred]

6. Sure, Bush was a gift, McCain will be just as much of a gift.

Obama might actually be a threat to AQ, instead of just using them as a PR prop.

7. When will the Bin Laden

How long until they trot out Bin Laden in a video to threaten America like they did 4 years ago during Kerry/Bush election?
