Shazam - it's Azzam!

Newsday has well-balanced editorial coverage of the latest bush-league attempt by the GOP to scare up some votes: it's "Azzam the American"!
A "terrorist video" features previously unknown Azzam declaring war on America with stereotypical scariness. In a tactic previously unused by terrorists, Azzam calls himself an American and denounces Bush cabinet members by name. Apparently, Azzam is trying to get those of us who are against the administration to identify with his unique method of protest.
According to Newsday:
There was no actual evidence yesterday that the late October tape was produced in Karl Rove's basement or Ed Gillespie's garage...
However the tape materialized - wink, wink - it dovetails almost perfectly with the president's fear-based campaign.
And what a piece of work this video is!
The speaker is identified as "Azzam the American," which you have to admit is an odd name to choose for someone seeking to connect with "my fellow countrymen."...
He speaks in what sounds like the villain's dialogue in a bad Schwarzenegger film.

[I saw the video and the accent is just wrong. I grew up in Dearborn and the voice sounds like someone who doesn't know any Arabs trying to sound Arabic. -ed.]
