President Obama, White House: Al Qaeda Is Racist - Political Punch

Speaking about the Uganda bombings, the president said, "What you've seen in some of the statements that have been made by these terrorist organizations is that they do not regard African life as valuable in and of itself. They see it as a potential place where you can carry out ideological battles that kill innocents without regard to long-term consequences for their short-term tactical gains."

Earlier today a senior administration official said the Obama administration believes that Al Shabaab carried out the attack.

Explaining the president's comment, an administration official said Mr. Obama "references the fact that both U.S. intelligence and past al Qaeda actions make clear that al Qaeda -- and the groups like al Shabaab that they inspire -- do not value African life. The actions of al Qaeda and the groups that it has inspired show a willingness to sacrifice innocent African life to reach their targets."

This can be seen, the official said, in the 1998 bombings of U.S. embassies in Kenya and Tanzania, when hundreds of Africans were killed and thousands wounded.

"Additionally, U.S. intelligence has indicated that al Qaeda leadership specifically targets and recruits black Africans to become suicide bombers because they believe that poor economic and social conditions make them more susceptible to recruitment than Arabs," the official said. "Al Qaeda recruits have said that al Qaeda is racist against black members from West Africa because they are only used in lower level operations."

"In short," the official said, "al Qaeda is a racist organization that treats black Africans like cannon fodder and does not value human life."

Now al Qaeda is in real big trouble, not because they threaten America and other free peoples, but because they are "racist against black members from West Africa because they are only used in lower level operations." Is this a campaign by Resident Obama to use them in higher level operations?

Al Qaeda must be careful in America. Their actions could slow the destructive movement being executed on America's freedoms by Obama, Pelosi, Reid, Dodd, Frank, all of the Democrats, the Liberal Rino's, and State Run Media.

There is no way al Qaeda is a bigger threat to America than these Libs are.

God bless America and help protect America from being taken over from within.
