基地恐怖组织对奥巴马当选美国总统作出首次反应，用种族主义诬蔑的话指称奥巴马，攻击他的政策是反伊斯兰教。在星期三贴在一个激进组织网站上的帖子里，一个被认定为基地恐怖网络的第二号首领扎瓦赫里的声音说，当选总统奥巴马增加驻阿富汗美军的计划注定要失败。
美国政府和奥巴马的过渡团队还没有立即作出回应。
这段基地组织的录音说，奥巴马对以色列的支持证实他对伊斯兰教的敌视。这个帖子登出的照片显示奥巴马在耶路撒冷的一个犹太人圣地，带着一顶头顶便帽。
扎瓦赫里还诬蔑奥巴马以及美国国务卿赖斯和鲍威尔将军等杰出非洲裔美国人的成就，暗示他们对白人卑躬屈膝。
Al-Qaida’s first reaction to Barack Obama’s election as U.S. president refers to him by a derogatory racial term and attacks his policies as anti-Islamic. In an posting on a militant Web site today (Wednesday), a voice identified as the terror network’s second-in-command, Ayman al-Zawahri, says President-elect Obama’s plan to increase the U.S. military presence in Afghanistan is doomed.
There was no immediate reaction from the U.S. government or Mr. Obama’s transition team.
The al-Qaida recording says Mr. Obama’s support of Israel confirms his hostility toward Islam. The posting shows a picture of Mr. Obama wearing a skull cap at a Jewish holy site in Jerusalem.
Zawahri also denigrates Mr. Obama’s achievements and those of other prominent African Americans — Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice and General Colin Powell — implying they are servile to whites.
