New message by al-Qaida deputy chief

CAIRO, Egypt - Al-Qaida's deputy leader issued a new video message Wednesday, praising one of the terrorist organization's slain commanders in Afghanistan.

The nine-minute, 59-second message from Ayman al-Zawahri, titled "An Elegy to the Martyred Commander Abu Laith al-Libi," was issued by al-Sahab, the group's media branch.

3. Wouldn't it be considered tacky to endorse before the Democratic nominee is even picked
The formal announcement of support for the Democratic candidate never comes before October when it appears the Republican candidate is losing ground. :shrug:

6. Well, I thought maybe
That Al-Kaida might have a preference for one or the other of our Dem candidates prior to the GE.

9. Al Queda has strict rules against endorsments during the primary.
Unlike the Florida Democratic Party, they can't endorse until after the nominee is chosen.
