Sen. Barack Obama’s foreign policy positions could encourage
America’s enemies to test it during the early days of an Obama
administration, Sen. John McCain said Wednesday.
Sen. John McCain says he will consider a second economic stimulus package if he is elected president.
“And the thing that probably may encourage them a little is that Sen.
Obama has been wrong,” McCain said in an interview to be aired on CNN’s
“The Situation Room” at 6 p.m. ET Wednesday.
BUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Al-Qaida supporters suggested in a Web site message this week they
would welcome a pre-election terror attack on the U.S. as a way to
usher in a McCain presidency.
The message, posted Monday on the password-protected al-Hesbah Web
site, said if al-Qaida wants to exhaust the United States militarily
and economically, “impetuous” Republican presidential candidate Sen.
John McCain is the better choice because he is more likely to continue
the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
“This requires presence of an impetuous American leader such as
McCain, who pledged to continue the war till the last American
soldier,” the message said. “Then, al-Qaida will have to support McCain
in the coming elections so that he continues the failing march of his
predecessor, Bush.”
SITE Intelligence Group, based in Bethesda, Md., monitors the Web site and translated the message.
“If al-Qaida carries out a big operation against American
interests,” the message said, “this act will be support of McCain
because it will push the Americans deliberately to vote for McCain so
that he takes revenge for them against al-Qaida. Al-Qaida then will
succeed in exhausting America till its last year in it.”
