McCain Nabs Key al-Qaeda Endorsement
Al-Qaeda is funny. Well, not usually, but the jihadist group’s announcement on Wednesday morning that it is endorsing John McCain in the 2008 United States presidential election is undeniably comical. A posting on al-Hesbah, an extremist web site that has been tied to al-Qaeda, declared: “Al-Qaeda will have to support McCain in the coming election,” because he is likely to continue the “failing march of his predecessor.”
