Well, the terrorist endorsements are in again — and once again, they want you to vote democrat. I doubt the media will cover this particular bit of information — they probably learned their lesson last year when Kerry lost after getting the al Qaida endorsement. And besides, what’s a bigger story — a sidelined figurehead of a terror organization in decline supporting a candidate in an American presidential election, or the heads of the Al Aqsa Martyr’s Brigades, Fatah, Hamas, and Islamic Jihad supporting an entire American party in a congressional election? I bet the media’s answer will be the former, rather than the latter.
However, it is also interesting to note that the terror leaders are amused by Nancy Pelosi’s beliefs that the resistance in Iraq will magically end when American troops leave.
It’s a pity this story won’t get much play — this might actually open some eyes on what the stakes of this election are. Unfortunately, I doubt that will happen. It just isn’t in line with the media’s narrative that the Democrats are the saviors of the country — nay, the world! — in this election.
UPDATE 11/2/06 6.50 PM: It’s just a lucky day for the democrats! Now an Iranian mullah agrees with Pelosi that the US should leave Iraq.
