The Bard's Breath: Ode to a Wahabbi Jihadist

by Joe Katzman at October 28, 2004 7:30 AM

Obelus posted this poem to our comments section yesterday, in response to the story about ABC's al-Qaeda video and the American jihadi frakazoid believed to be starring in the vid. It won't mean anything to a religiously-motivated terrorist like Adam Gadhan, but I sure thought it was funny... and as Kathy K noted, it has exactly the flow to match the Jihadi Arabic panegyrics. So, without further ado:

O to the pitiless, violent Salafist
your leaders betray you
rivers of blood will course through
your poorly maintained thoroughfares
A battle with no end is upon you
The Coalition, may peace be upon Her...
will restore Arab magnificence
the crushed bodies of your martyrs sully your soil
their is an offensive stink to your dead
Democracy will liberate your women
they shall bare their heads and their breasts
in jubilation
you are powerless and pitiless and will get devilish scourges
Lay down your insignificant weapons
bury your dead so the odious stench does not blight
the new land of the free
get a small business loan at a low interest APR
endeavour to submit to your occupiers
get a convertible with your profits
live a little

Oh, now that is cool! The violent switching back and forth between realities is the very essence of fine poetic art. Heh. Love it!!

Here are some quick tips for adding simple Textile formatting to your comments, though you can also use proper HTML tags:

*This* puts text in bold.

_This_ puts text in italics.

bq. This "bq." at the beginning of a paragraph, flush with the left hand side and with a space after it, is the code to indent one paragraph of text as a block quote.

To add a live URL, "Text to display":http://windsofchange.net/ (no spaces between) will show up as Text to display. Always use this for links - otherwise you will screw up the columns on our main blog page.

Finally, note that a constant onslaught of Trackback spams from auto-generated blogspot blogs has forced Winds to ban the blogspot.com domain from use in comments or trackbacks. If you host on blogspot, consider moving; otherwise, the complaints need to be directed at Google not us.
