Al Qaeda Tells Obama He's Going to Hell

A new video from al Qaida's as-Sahab Media wing is titled, "A Calm Dialogue With Obama." It shows Shiekh Khalid bin Abdul Rahman al-Hussainan chastising America and President Obama for all of the problems of the Muslim world.

I especially love this diatribe about women and shoes. Maybe it makes more sense in the original Arabic?

“You bring the best and most beautiful woman you have and make her make publicity for shoes! Is this where you place women? Is this the standing of women? You make the most beautiful woman and the sweetest woman trade for shoes! Praise Allah! For us, Obama, a women is like a Jewel, a diamond.
Whiskey Tango Foxtrot?

The context of this particular non-sequitor is the tired accusation that U.S. soldiers routinely rape Afghan women and that therefore women should be "covered" (ie, where a burka). Again, with the notion that women who are uncovered are inviting rape. Victim as perpertrator.

But what does selling shoes have to do with this?

Anyway, later al Qaeda tells Obama he's going to hell. I'm not sure I disagree.

“Obama: Think of your fate…What is your fate after death, you Obama? You will die, by Allah, you will die, as your father died and your grandfather died, but what will be your fate you Obama after death? What will your fate be? The world will end, the prophet, Peace Be Upon Him, said: ‘any Jew or a Christian who hears of me, then would not believe on me, Allah will throw him in the hellfire’ as our Prophet, Peace Be Upon Him, said.”
If you're interested, NEFA has a transcript of the whole thing.
