Al-Qaida’s second-in-command used racial epithets today to describe
President-elect Barack Obama, according to the Associated Press.
Ayman al-Zawahri even went so far as describing Obama, former Secretary of
State Colin Powell and current Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice “house negroes,” the news agency reported. The 11-minute video was posted Wednesday on militant Web sites. It was the organization’s first comment since Obama’s election victory.
