UK - Al-Qaeda would back McCain

That's what the BBC's Justin Webb says.

"Islamic terrorists want war. They want suffering - among others and their own people alike.

They would surely surmise that McCain will give them what they want. Bin Laden himself intervened with what many thought was the effect of keeping President Bush in power in 2004 with that weird tape just before the poll.

I think al-Qaeda would back McCain - that is not an argument for or against America backing him, but it seems to me that the vague assumption that the terrorists would back a lefty is lazy thinking..."

No bias from this BBC hack is there? Just read his comments at the mast head of this blog.

Yep Justin, I'm sure al Qaeda would love to be bombed and hounded out of their safe havens, set on the run, leaders and foot soldiers killed and unable to plan terror attacks around the globe. They certainly have no wish to return to the good old days when they were left alone to build, grow and plot in peace, the way Clinton let them.

What a freaking moron.
