Al Qaeda against Obama

Al Qaeda's second in command has reportedly said in a web video that Obama has turned away from his Muslim roots. Ayman Al Zawahiri suggests that the president has forsaken his father's Muslim heritage to root for Israel.
"You have reached the position of president, and a heavy legacy of failure and crimes awaits you," says Zawahiri, an Egyptian physician who is al-Qaeda's second in command under Osama Bin Laden."You were born to a Muslim father, but you chose to stand in the ranks of the enemies of the Muslims and pray the prayer of the Jews, although you claim to be Christian, in order to climb the rungs of leadership in America."
In my opinion, Al Qaeda has attempted to appeal to all Muslims of all nationalities yet I have noticed that mostly Egyptians are in command whereas all other nationalities take orders. The Al Qaeda believe that suicide bombers will end up in heaven while in the Quaran it specifically says that all who commit suicide will not be in heaven for it is against God and all that God has given us and by commiting suicide you are saying that you are not thankful for all that he has given you.

Free The Children

This week, I got an incredible chance to meet with a political group called " Me To We". It is about freeing children from child labour. And youths helping youths around the world. It was incredible presentation with passionate speeches from Martin Luther King Jr. and other amazing world leaders. I thought that presentation was powerful and showed us how we can help. Then I got this once in a lifetime chance to do a workshop and find out even more on how I can help. Did you know that only 4% of the world's population is in North America but we have 30% of the world's wealth and food. South America has 9% of the worlds population yet has 5% percent of the world's wealth and food.Africa has 9% of the world's population and only 3% of the world's food and wealth. Europe has 12% of the world's population yet and astounding 45% of the world's food and wealth. Asia has 61% of the world's population and only 19% of its food and wealth.
Did you know that most of the world's child labour is in Asia? well it is. Mostly in places like India where beggars roam on the streets. Children are chained to machines and given very little food. In Africa, very few children are sent to school most are in child labour. The United Nations has proclaimed child labour universally illegal but yet hundreds of children are still in it. Thanks to Free The Children and organizations like it 1000's of children are freed each year. A 12 year old boy read in the newspaper that a boy named Iqbal, who was 12 years old was freed from child labour at the age of ten started roaming making speeches on why child labour was wrong was shot in the head while riding his bike. He was silenced. Craig Kielburger, at the age of twelve decided to do something about it so he asked his teacher if he could read the article to the class. She agreed. After he'd read it he said" I'm going to do something about this, who's is going to help me". And so Free The Children was born. Diversity is our strength and human rights are for all of us, not only whites, not only blacks, not only Spanish, not Arabic, not only men,not only women. every single one of us should have human rights. Once a year, take a vow of silence for a day for all those who are silenced everyday.Make a change and do it now, the world won't wait.
Go to www.metowe.com or www.hungersite.com all of these organizations are for making a change.
Sincerley,

America,do you see the suffering of this child. Stop the horrors in Iraq. If you have only read the suffering of a sixth grade girl in the middle of the war. You will understand that hundreds are being killed for America's greed. I hope that with the reign of a new president, these horrors will subside. So please America, stop it. Read the blog of an eleven year old child, who lives in Mogul describe how life is in day to day Iraq. She is going by the name of Sunshine and her blog is http://livesstrong.blogspot.com

It has happened, what our nation hs been waiting for!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We have elected America's first black president. Barack Obama is the 44th president of the United States Of America. A change has happened, he is the president not because of his color but his ideas for a new tomorrow. I'm sorry Al- Qaida that you will be dissappointed. :D Obama has elected Joe Biden as his vice president. And as Obama's campaign slogan is Change can happpen and has during this spectacular American election. We are looking forward to our soldiers coming home from Iraq and Obama's eight year presidency. You have done it, you showed America and the world that change can happen. All the doors you knocked on, all the meetings you held, all the speeches you gave, when I am sure you wanted to stay in bed longer. I can tell you now it was worth it for a new America.
Thank You Obama!!!!!!!!
Love,
Jacqueline.

Tomorrow is a very important election between worthy candidates. Obama has said " We're one day away from change in America". As the candidates make moving speechs on the Election's Eve. Americans are making their decision on who to vote for the next day. While the rest of the world, is waiting for the turnout and rooting for the candidate they deem suitable. Some states have already voted, and the ballots that are cast are suggesting an advantage to Obama in Iowa, North Carolina, Colorado and Florida.Polls are saying Obama is winning 53 percent to 42 percent. In Florida, Obama spoke a sentence that moved all. " I have one word for you Florida: tomorrow.Well, this is going to be a tight race with two extremlely competitive candidates.
Interesting Facts
Obama has had a long term connection with the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now also known as Acorn but McCain cannot mention it, because he spoke at a conferece sponsered by Acorn.If you would like to get a proper update on the statistics go to www.politics1.com. Did you know that McCain made an appeal saying that the late votes of the soldiers overseas be counted. Who do you think is going to win? Find out tomorrow.
And please vote, one vote can change the polls, one vote can undo a war, one vote can stop the death of hundreds. Look either you vote, or you be quiet. I vote because i have a voice that wants to be heard. A soldier might vote because he wants to come home alive. No one has the right to silence you is what you might say, but by not voting you are silencing yourself. Let your voice be heard and declare yourself at www.declareyourself.com. There is a great video with celebrities endorsing it saying vote and why. Check it out.
Sincerely,
Jacqueline
