	March 10, 1957 — May 2, 2011                                                                      Osama bin Laden. Barack Hussein Osama Obama Ayad Allawi. Bin Saddam Netanyahu Obama Osama. Abdullah Abdullah Boutros Boutros-Mubarak. Bashar al-Barack Hussein Assad. Ayatollah Musharraf Obama Farouk Faisal Fahd. Osama Arafat Gaddafi bin Ben-Gurion Obama. Muammar Muhammad Ahmadinejad Jihad. Shah Allah bin Jesus al-Zawahiri Khomeini. YHWH Saddam bin Chemical Ali Laden Obama Aziz. Hosni Hussein Saddam-and-Gomorrah al-Tikiriti.   And so it goes, in the Middle East, Where peace-minded brotherhood flourishes, For being taught by enlightened imams, In Allah-endowed magnet madrasas Dedicated to proselytizing democracy, Where suicide babies child-pose and pray Toward Mecca and the World Trade Center — Holiness changing only in names and victims, Not hijacked, shoe-bombed human rights. Long live the 72-Extra-Virgined Caliphate Of Osama bin Mohammed bin Awad bin Laden!                   05/06/11
