The hugely popular Egyptian pop singer Shaaban Abdel Rahim, best known for his controversial political songs and outrageous style, will soon release a new track celebrating the end of Bush’s presidency—and endorsing Obama.

They Trained. They Plotted. Then They Bailed.”

ARTICLE SNIPPET: “Looking at al-Qaeda dropouts, some clear patterns emerge. Some left after becoming disillusioned with the group’s tactics and strategy.
