CAIRO, Egypt (AP) -- Al-Qaida's No. 2 leader lashed out at President-elect Barack Obama in a new audio message Tuesday, accusing him of not doing anything to stop Israel's offensive in the Gaza Strip, according to an intelligence monitoring center.

The recording purportedly by Ayman al-Zawahiri was al-Qaida's first comments on the Gaza crisis since Israel launched its offensive against the Islamic militants of Hamas on Dec. 27.

In the comments, which were posted on a militant Web site and obtained by the SITE Monitoring Service, al-Zawahiri described Israel's actions in Gaza as a "crusade against Islam and Muslims" and called it "Obama's gift to Israel" before he takes office later this month.

"This is Obama whom the American machine of lies tried to portray as the rescuer who will change the policy of America," al-Zawahiri said, according to SITE. "He kills your brothers and sisters in Gaza mercilessly and without affection."

Well, just this statement goes to show 1)our form of government is difficult for not just Americans to understand (hey, they elected mr.o thinking HE is gonna give free homes and cars away!) but the rest of the world and 2) the muslims did support mr.o and expected him to wipe Israel off the face of the earth. After all, isn't mr. o a "secret muslim?" /sarc off

This is an example of the heigth of stupidity. Obama is not yet the president. These idiotic, numbskulls, brain dead, zero wits should blame Hamas who are the sole reason for Israel's self defense.

This is priceless! Hussein isn’t even in office yet and he is already getting bashed by foreigners, and terrorists at that!

Welcome to the Big Leagues, Hussein, I hope you are ready to play.

This would be laughable if it weren't so pitiful. And I love al-Zucchini blaming BHO for not coming to the aid of Ham-ass! If the United States nuked Israel off the face of the earth, the terrorists would go right on hating us and trying to destroy us. When-oh-when are all the bleeding-heart liberal sympathizers going to see these pigs for what they are?!

Gotta love it. Obama claims he'll sit down and talk with ANYBODY, no questions asked, to try and smooth things over, and this is what he gets to face -- reps from al-Queda have already called him a "house-N##ger", and now they blame him for the situation in Gaza, before he's even taken office.

What is sickening is that the American people were duped by the horse manure that oozed so smoothly out of Obama's mouth during the campaign, and now we're the ones who are going to get screwed.
