In an interview earlier today with the South African Broadcasting Corporation to air in a few hours, President Obama disparaged al Qaeda and affiliated groups' willingness to kill Africans in a manner that White House aides say was an argument that the terrorist groups are racist.
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."
"In short," an administration official said, "al Qaeda is a racist organization that treats black Africans like cannon fodder and does not value human life."
Well DUH!
Al Qaeda does not value human life? I think even Stevie Wonder could see that.
Umm...last I checked the Somalis are as black as anyone so how can they be racist by killing other blacks? So even tho AQ were killing white folk, it wasn't until the Ugandan bombing that Obama figures AQ is racist. See a pattern here?
