Before King Samir Shabazz wielded a nightstick outside a Philadelphia polling station ... before he was videotaped calling white people "crackers" and urging blacks to kill them and their babies ... the head of the New Black Panther Party in the City of Brotherly Love was singing about being trained by Usama bin Laden.
The New Black Panther Party claims to believe in nonviolence, but a song performed by Shabazz's group, Coup Da’Ta, in 2004 includes descriptions of violent attacks against police as well as anti-Semitic statements and claims of having trained with both the most-wanted terrorist in the world and the accused mastermind of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.
This is the chorus of "Damn Rebels," repeated seven times in the song:
“I’m a warrior trained by Khalid Muhammad
I’m a terrorist trained by Usama bin Laden
Demolitionist, breaking down the walls of the rotten
Never hit and miss
So, first time, take out your target”
The song at one time was posted on the home page of the New Black Panther Party’s national website, but it has been removed. It also has been taken down from other sites that host Coup Da’Ta’s music.
In response to a request for an interview with Shabazz, the national chairman of the New Black Panther Party, Malik Zulu Shabazz, wrote in an e-mail:
“King Samir is not doing any interviews. Our only statement on that is that his music is art, and not to be taken as literal political speech or a New Black Panther organizational statement.” - FOX News Story
