I wonder what it could be? A pony? A PS3? Can I shake the box? I’m really not good with surprises.
A new al Qaeda propaganda ad, headlined “Wait for the Big Surprise” and featuring a digitally altered photograph of President George Bush and Pakistan’s President Pervez Musharraf standing in front of a burning White House, was posted on the Internet today.
The brief clip from al Qaeda’s “as Sahab” propaganda arm juxtaposes the doctored photo of Bush and Musharraf along with previously seen images of al Qaeda’s top leadership — Osama bin Laden, Ayman al Zawahri and Adam Gadahn — as well as a photo of an SUV in a motorcade.
There is no additional information provided in the ad, and it closes with the words, “Soon — God willing,” written across the screen and repeated several times.

Bush probably had it made himself. it #1 is very rapture-ish and the religious loonies will eat it up and #2 coming from ooooooh scary, Al-Quaeda, it will spook the masses. Gotta keep em afraid of their own shadows and bleating like sheep ya know.

Have any proof of that? Or are you just taking Ann Coulter’s word for it?

Whatever it is, quick, run around wringing hands and remove constitutional rights. Don’t forget to invade a country or two so as to increase personal wealth. I certainly want to be the first to jump at my own shadow.

T Ray -
You nailed it. This scaredy-cat crap is pathetic. I was at ground zero. A lot of people died. We survived as a nation. This is not an existential threat. What are we so scared of? SO they want to kill us. We’ll keep hunting them and hurting them and eventually when we get a smart government, we’ll understand how to fight them in the world of ideas as well.
I think of the Blitz during WWII where England faced an existential threat. They handled daily bombings with far more aplomb than the ninnies on the Right who behave like little sissies. You’re allowing them to terrorize you. How about getting a spine and behaving like brave Americans. Try that for a change.

I’m afraid I’m with Bill t. Bush probably had it done to promote fear and panic. The way (As the popular film put it) he did the 911 Attack.
No one wets themselves faster than an anti-gun, anti death penalty, pro removal of Constitutional protections. When somone screams “Oh God the Arabs are gonna get us!!”.
Sorry, I believe in the Constitution, even if the Government doesn’t.
