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, voanews.com reported.
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.
Ayman al-Zawahri refers to Obama in Arabic as a "house slave." The posting's English caption translates it as "house Negro," a demeaning racial term used to refer to blacks who do the bidding of whites.
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.
美国政府和奥巴马的过渡团队还没有立即作出回应。
There was no immediate reaction from the U.S. government or Mr. Obama's transition team.
