Video Surfaces Of New Black Panther Party President Praising Bin Laden In 2002

video
» 46 comments

This Black Panther just keeps getting more and more absurd. New Black Panther Party head Malik Zulu Shabazz burst onto the scene with some strongly-worded messages to Glenn Beck and a interview with Fox News’ Megyn Kelly and has usurped BP CEO Tony Hayward‘s place as this summer’s most disliked non-celebrity in some circles. And now, video has surfaced of Shabazz praising Osama Bin Laden in 2002 for “not bowing down” to America.

Holding up an illustration of Bin Laden at what appears to be an NBPP meeting, Shabazz dramatically sings the praising of the head of Al-Qaeda:

“Let’s talk about this brother, because he’s a bold man… Usama Bin Laden, Mr. Bin Laden. Gotta give him his respect. He’s not bowing down. He’s not cutting [?] the tap dance… Mr. Bin Laden standing up. There’s a man born in Saudi Arabia bringing reform, Mr. Bin Laden. But you’re not supposed to say these things about him. I thought we had free speech.”

It goes on from there, with Shabazz declaring that he is unsure of Bin Laden’s guilt in the 9/11 attacks. The entire video is quite a bizarre thing. The whole thing is below:

    Frances did you clear this with Tommy?

  • Moderate

    You must go over the edge extreme if you want to get your sound-byte on TV, a lesson he learned from Al Sharpton.

  • ImNotBlue

    I’m sure there’s a rational reason for why he said this. Tommy… what you got, buddy?

  • NORBIT

    OLD NEWS – Breitbart already has a well-commented thread on this!!!!!!

  • MichelleF

    INB, Tommy hasn’t made an appearance since Megan showed him how to conduct an interview. He’s still hiding in embarrassment, just as he should be.

  • notsofast

    This is no surprise. I’m just surprised he didn’t have Rev. Wright next to him when he said it.

  • Pablo

    Uh oh.

    c’mon tea-beckers, you can do a better job linking Obama to this. NSF is the closest…..

    I’ll bite Trickledick, How many times has he been to the White House? Anybody know? His name is on the list. He & Teh One shootin’ hoops?

    I couldn’t top Holder in doing that. I won’t even try.

  • felixw

    I am waiting for our leftist regulars to show up here and continue their defense of Malik Zulu Shabazz. They have no objections to Black Panthers showing up in para-military attire with clubs to intimidate voters. In their opinion, whitey has it coming. Now let’s hear them tell us why Osama Bin Laden has been misunderstood. You would think only a lunatic fringe would believe this kind of stuff, but apparently not….

  • yweston

    As an African American woman who is a Progressive. I think these guys are “ignorant”.

  • Pablo

    I’d go with batshit looney tunes, but ignorant fits too. I wonder if Shabazz sends OBL a birthday card on 9-11.

    The guy is crazy but he’s a long way from being Osama Bin Laden’s greatest booster in the US. George W. Bush holds that position as he was AQ’s greatest asset for 8 years. Bin Laden sorely misses George W.

    How often will be seeing this EXPLOSIVE Video on NBC, CBS, ABC, PBS, (lol)msnbc, or (lol) Univision?!

    Then ask yourself how often we’d see it on these same Obama-Media stations if it were WHITE RACISTS?

    That STENCH you’re smelling is the RANK HYPOCRISY & DECEIT of liberal progressives!

    Why would you lable this klown a ‘liberal progressive?’ He displays all the attributes of being a intolerant demogogue — hell, he’s Sarah Palin or Dick Morris or Bill O’Reilly. Putting those together with this idiot is just a small portion of that big pool of stupid that is extremism.

  • Pablo

    This video gets pretty interesting around the 6:00 mark. It’s good to know who your friends are, and theirs.

  • Pablo

    Bill Adkins said:

    He’s not calling Shabazz a “known progressive”. He’s referring to the deceit and hypocrisy of known progressives in regard to Shabazz. And like a good little puppet, you delivered:

    He displays all the attributes of being a intolerant demogogue — hell, he’s Sarah Palin or Dick Morris or Bill O’Reilly.

    Way to prove a guy’s point, Bill.

    You have to understand something about Bill. He is a Progressive believer of the highest order.

    In his world, any and everything can be blamed on Republicans and those he disagrees with. Everything that is good and succeeds, the Liberals are responsible. This causes him to say things that are flat out untrue, make crazy assumptions, and simply create facts that aren’t there. He is a Progressive zombie, with no ability to think for himself… so save your strength. His responses will always, ALWAYS be the same.

  • writer

    No matter how bad someone is, such as the black panthers or Bin Laden, Bill Adkins response will quickly shift away from them and onto ‘tea baggers’ or Sarah Palin. In fact, I believe you could ask him about the weather, and his response would be something like, “Well, it’s a nice day, but those tea baggers……” Bill’s pretty much a one trick pony.

  • BR

    Bill: You poor liberals are so full of hate that it blinds you.

  • Pablo

    Khalid Abdul Muhammad, Malik Shaboo Shabazz’s predecessor, is an interesting fellow. It’s a shame he couldn’t have held on a few more years and seen his Party getting some love from the DOJ. I’m sure it would have warmed his heart.

  • Pablo

    Most people, it seems — or at least most elites — have made a kind of peace with Sharpton. Two years ago, former mayor Ed Koch appeared on a cooking show with The Rev — just a pair of twinkle-eyed, cuddly New York pols, wearing aprons. But the Old Sharpton never fails to spring back. Around the time he was cooking with Koch, Sharpton was haranguing a Harlem crowd with Khalid Abdul Muhammad, the country’s foremost specialist in Hitlerian rhetoric. (Free sample: “Who’s pimping the world? The hairy hands of the Zionist in the world.”) Pressed slightly on Muhammad, Sharpton said, “I have no problem with Khalid. My problem is Giuliani. It’s not Khalid who is talking hate; it’s Rudy Giuliani.” As far as Sharpton was concerned, Muhammad was “an articulate and courageous brother.”

    Source.

    You know, I’m glad there’s nothing mainstream about these guys. Sharpton couldn’t possibly have spoken at the NBPP 1998 Million Youth March cum race riot in NYC. But now we know where Mr. Cracker Babies got his schtick.

    Why wouldn’t you want these guys greeting voters?

    No, I’m just not going to let you align me with idiots like this clown. You poor rightwingers have much to live down, you project your stupid.

    You mean like you aligning everyone you disagree with as a ‘tea bagger’?

    First: “you project your stupid”

    What, in the blue hell, is that supposed to mean?

    Next, you tried to align “right wingers” with that “clown” and bin Laden in your posts at 8:01 and 10:07 so bitching about “right wingers” aligning the “clown” to “you” gives credence to the hypocrisy theory about “progressives” like “you.” And by “you,” I’m not addressing all “progressives,” just “you.”

  • shootfromthehip

    Oh noes!!!!!

    The blacks are coming!!!!

    All the blacks talk to each other and they all worship the Osama Bin Laden!!!!!

    Obama = Osama Bin Laden!!!!

    The end is near!!!!!!

  • timzank

    Bill Adkins….does this mean (this time) you do NOT support the new black panthers?

  • writer

    Oh, no! Those eighty year old tea partiers are going to hit us with their walkers! They’re the ones who are really dangerous! Not those young black guys carrying clubs!

    It’s all bullshit, and if you don’t think Shabazz is a bad person, no matter who he might vote for, then you need to re-examine your ethics.

  • shootfromthehip

    Hey Rogue, I never said Bush hates black people. Kayne did.

    And I am not defending Shabazz, either.

    I’m simply trying to point out how this has nothing to do with Obama.

    Naturally, Fox and Drudge are cynically trying (once again) to gin up racist feelings and co-mingling scary “bad blacks” with Obama in a calculated effort to undermine Obama via seeping into the sub concious minds of middle America.

    That message?

    Obama = bad blacks (see ACORN, Reverend Wright etc).

    Knowing our media, they will most likely succeed because CNN, Fox and MSNBC enable this total Drudge-led BS meme.

    Fucking pathetic.

  • writer

    The link to Obama was because his AG, Holder, chose to drop the case. And other than Fox, I don’t think anyone else even covered the story.

  • Dandee

    writer: I so hope you are kidding. I will pretend that you are anyway. MAYBE one day you MAY reach the age of 80 and if so, I hope you will remember this! You can get the real truth only by listening to FoxNews. They have proof of what they say on tape. If you don’t believe the tape you see, then GO BACK to the Obama stations.

  • writer

    Your hopes are fulfilled, Dandee. It was sarcasm directed at shootfromthemouths 3:57 post.

  • Sue

    HEY DAN!!!! Congrats for being the second(?) Liberal site to bring up the thugs, The New Black Panther Party!! If you have understood and followed Obama since he hit our stage, this, like Wright, Rezko, Ayers, Stearns, Jerritt, Blagojevich….sorry, my fingers are getting tired, I’ll quit the list but it certainly is not finished, isn’t “old” news…it’s just the “news” the Uberlefty media wouldn’t print or talk about. Too late now, isn’t it?. ..oh well, we are all paying and will pay dearly for the mistakes of the “journalists”.

    I had not heard about this, but it should not come as a surprise to anyone.

  • http://none pyrope

    What I’m wating patiently to see (and am NOT seeing) is ANY black Democrat standing up and, in no uncertain terms, denouncing this lunatic with the made up name (Malik Zulu Shabazz). Where is Mr. -0bama? Where is Mr. Sharpton? Where is Mr. Rangel? For that matter, tell me one talking head on MSNBC, CBS, ABC, NBC, NPR, HLN, and all the usual lamestream outlets who has said in concise terms that Shabazz and his organization are anti-American criminals and should be put in jail? Could it be that they share his sentiments? I have often heard that silence implies consent.

    Here you go, pyrope.

    Oh, wait. Hayes is a black Republican. Sorry about that. Lets keep looking.

  • axel360

    I don’t know who sounds more ignorant in this video. Shabazz, or the guy in the video who agrees with him after every sentence

  • scott w

    I’d like to buy Jesse Jackson and this Shabazz kid a calendar. The ’70s are over.

  • Latin2

    The rest of the MSM is not interested in the New Black Panther’s racist rants. They are to busy reporting about Mel Gibson and Lyndsay Lohan.

  • Latin2

    I want to know why Holder let Jerry Jackson and King Shamir off the hook after they lost their case.

    Could it be because Jerry Jackson, the guy in the video blocking people from voting based on color, was a credentialed Democratic ward poll watcher?

    That was reported in a WSJ article;

    http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052970203550604574361071968458430.html#mod=article-outset-box

    …it was learned one of the defendants who walked was Jerry Jackson, a member of Philadelphia’s 14th Ward Democratic Committee and a credentialed poll watcher for the Democratic Party last Election Day.

  • RTB

    This group has been spitting out this kind of hatred longer than 8 years…its always been there….this isnt breaking news and its like commenting on an olberman thread, why bother.
