Vote for the Candidate backed by Al-Qaeda!

Qaeda wants Republicans, Bush humiliated:

"DUBAI (Reuters) - An al Qaeda leader has called for President George W. Bush and the Republicans to be 'humiliated,' without endorsing a party in the upcoming U.S. presidential election, according to an Internet video posting.

'O God, humiliate Bush and his party, O Lord of the Worlds, degrade and defy him,' Abu Yahya al-Libi said at the end of sermon marking the Muslim feast of Eid al-Fitr, in a video posted on the Internet.

Libi, a top al Qaeda commander believed to be living in Afghanistan or Pakistan, called for God's wrath to be brought against Bush equating him with past tyrants in history.

The remarks were the first from a leading al Qaeda figure referring, albeit indirectly, to the U.S. elections. Muslim clerics often end sermons by calling on God to guide and support Muslims and help defeat their enemies.

Terrorism monitor SITE Intelligence Group said in a report on Wednesday that militants on al Qaeda-linked websites have for months been debating the significance of Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama or Republican John McCain.

Some posters have also argued over the merits of trying to attack the United States before the election or waiting until later, the report said."
