Is is possible that Ayman Zawahiri calling Barack Obama a “house slave” or “house negro” has done what Dafur genocide failed to to and focus attention on the long ignored Arab slave trade and Arab racism?

I doubt it. To the people you are hoping to reach the only evil people are white people and Jews.

Liberal and Black Americans may finally join the war on Islamists.

No they'll just dig up Clinton and get him to go on TV to apologize to Zawahiri.

""how dare Zawahiri make any references to American slavery""

I've got news for this writer. Every race has participated in slavery so what is his point? Another news flash... blacks are racist.

Liberal and Black Americans may finally join the war on Islamists.

Why? That is a joke, right? You realize there is no bigger enemy then the evil white man?

...well gee, it’s existed FOREVER - especially during the last EIGHT YEARS. But only now, suddenly is it worth talking about.

And didn’t libs call Michael Steele, Condi Rice and Colin Powell “house negroes”? If it was so bad that al Queda did it, why do libs get a pass?

Besides, didn't I read somewhere on news, maybe internet, an article stating that Obama’s ancestral tribe was not taken into slavery, but sold slaves, selling their brother tribesmen into slavery??

how many times does this have to be said before people finally get it?

SLAVERY HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH ARABS!

CHRISTIAN Arabs have nothing to do with Slavery being slaves themselves of Muslims..this is Muslim thing of whatever ethnicity - and Klinghoffer needs to get it right.

Oh, so now the Libs are discovering that the terrorists are bad guys?

Conservatives said "Buy American." The UAW took conservatives' money and used it to buy the presidency for a socialist. No, thanks. Buy American-made Hondas and Toyotas.

During a tour of duty in Jordan in the mid-1970’s I came across a black man who had been captured somewhere in the horn of Africa and sold into slavery in Saudi Arabia. He had escaped and made his way to Jordan. He vowed he would never return to Saudi Arabia, where he would likely be put to death, or to his homeland, where he could be re-enslaved.

In Muslim Arab countries before the abolition of slavery, Christian Arabs (and Jews) also could own slaves. They just couldn't own Muslim slaves.

BTW, slavery in Muslim countries was never race-based. Muslims have always been equal-opportunity enslavers. For centuries the Ottomans raided eastern Europe and the Barbary pirates raided European shipping and Mediterranean coastlines. Millions of "white" slaves were obtained in this way, to go with the millions of black slaves imported across the Sahara and up the East African coast.

Wait until people find out that while Obama does not descend from slaves, He DOES descend from slave traders......on his FATHER’s side.

Dissing Republican Condoleeza Rice was fine. No one made a peep when the Syrian Egyptian Opposition Weekly wrote that Rice ‘Is Suited Only to Work at a Nightclub or to Make Her Bed in the Heart of the Jungles’. They could not care less when Hamas Minister of Culture ‘Atallah Abu Al-Subh said Condoleezza Rice Is a Black Scorpion with A Cobra’s Head Who Has the Blood of Palestinian Children between Her Lips and on Her Fangs.

But, you see, dissing Obama is different. No one is permitted to touch the Democratic ONE and in this case, I am grateful, “from the bitter, comes sweet.” Liberal and Black Americans may finally join the war on Islamists.

Does anyone else's blood pressure go up reading about the MSM?

It exists in some, not all. It is generally technically illegal even where it exists.

Unless we're talking informal slavery, as of female and child "sex workers," and if we're going to count them we have lots of slaves in this country.

You will get no disagreement from me that sex exploitation is a scourge. I agree. And there seems little will to outlaw it and punish the perpetrators. Sex and its perversions are rampant.

But its existence here is a result of this nation's increasing secularization.

OTOH in Islam slavery is acceptable because it is based on their code. It is acceptable and even an honored tradition as it has always been practiced on those who are not muslim.
