The statement said it supported President Bush in his reelection campaign, and would prefer him to win in November rather than the Democratic candidate John Kerry... Because, if Kerry wins, they just don't know how they're going to handle being hauled into court for the "illegal" activities.
...as it was not possible to find a leader "more foolish than you (Bush), who deals with matters by force rather than with wisdom."
This coming from a group of sub-humans who kill innocent men, woman and children to attain their means.
And as for foolish leaders, it's Saddam who was found hiding in a hole in the ground and it's Osama who's living in a cave.

Great. I can hear it now. The lib response to everything will change from "Bush lied" to "Al Queda supports Bush".

Is this for real? If it is then the kooks are being extra-stupid today. If that is their version of reverse-psychology then they need some serious remedial help. LOL.
Maybe it is from one of Kerry's foreign friends.

Purported al Qaeda letter calls truce in Spain
18.03.2004
9.45am
CAIRO - A group claiming to have links with al Qaeda said on Wednesday it was calling a truce in its Spanish operations to see if the new government would withdraw its troops from Iraq, a pan-Arab newspaper said.
In a statement sent on Wednesday to the Arabic language daily al-Hayat, the Abu Hafs al-Masri Brigades, which claimed responsibility for the Madrid bombings that killed 201 people, also urged its European units to stop all operations.
"Because of this decision, the leadership has decided to stop all operations within the Spanish territories... until we know the intentions of the new government that has promised to withdraw Spanish troops from Iraq," the statement said.
"And we repeat this to all the brigades present in European lands: stop all operations."
In a shock election result just days after the Madrid attacks, Spain elected the Socialist party, which has since said it will probably withdraw its troops from Iraq.
The Abu Hafs al-Masri Brigades have previously claimed responsibility for bombings in Turkey and Iraq.
"The Spanish people... chose peace by choosing the party that was against the alliance with America," the statement said. The newspaper planned to publish it on Thursday.
Outgoing Spanish Prime Minister Josa Maria Aznar was a staunch ally of the United States in the Iraq war, although a majority of the Spanish people were opposed to sending Spanish troops there.
"Praise be to God who gave us this victory in the conquest of Madrid... where one of the pillars of the axis of Crusader evil was destroyed," the statement said, affirming its earlier claim for the Madrid attacks.
A US official in Washington has previously said the group's link with al Qaeda is unclear.
A newgroup posting has it from Reuters in the original, non-Bush version also...

Why not have an add with a Bin Laden character endorsing John Kerry? It is the terrorists that would like a cowardly simpleton as the President.

Even the most foolish liberal knows deep down that these animals would not rather have Bush as president. At the hard of every liberal is a coward.
