An endorsement you don’t want

I doubt the SPD in Germany appreciate this implicit endorsement:

AL-Qaeda has warned Germans to change their in the September 27 election, saying they will face a “bad awakening” if they do not, according to two monitoring services.

Germany was also told to withdraw its 4200 troops from Afghanistan or face being attacked at home, the US-based groups said.

In video footage a man identified as Abu Talha the German, and speaking in German, says that if Chancellor Angela Merkel is re-elected, “bitter times await the Germans,” according to IntelCenter and the SITE Intelligence Group. …

He appears to suggest that if German voters do not heed his warnings, Al-Qaeda will within a fortnight.

The SDP candidate for Chancellor is actually the Foreign Minister in the grand coalition Government, so I doubt there will be a huge change either way.
