New Al Qaeda Video Cheerleading
Here's the very hollow part of what he said that makes you feel bettter about his otherwise aggressive pronouncements. He says the US and its allies have suffered enormously more casualties in Iraq and Afghanistan than have been reported in "the media blackout."
Now there is how you know how unplugged this dude is. Our media reports the American bodycount minute by minute, with a morbid fascination driven to demoralize our population and give up the fight. The fact that this guy thinks they're underreporting our casualties reflects his cluelessness. It also reflects that fact the he isn't speaking to Americans. He is speaking to Muslims, and especially his fans. They need the morale boost...the most successful day against us was 9/11. It's been all downhill since.
So where is the video of Osama? Why no pretty pictures of el numero uno, huh? Where are you big fella?
Anybody have some ideas?

We've been playing a little word-change game with this one, based on the al-Jazeera article: Göbbels Warns Britons Against Churchill’s Policy — Wire Recording.

I went on a holiday this summer with a Russian Tourist Agency Group
(my girl friend lives in St Petersburg, Russia)
So there I was the sole American in Italy with a Tour Group composed of Russians and Ukranians.
The topic of Bin Laden came up, like "why has America not caught him?"
Here was my answer, "I" don't want to "catch" Bin Laden. I want those underneath him. If we catch him and/or his is killed in the attempt, he is a Martyr and he never dies. He is old he does not have much time left, when he dies he is just another old man.
But in the meantime even if his location is known I don't want him "caught" I want him used to identify the next generation of Jihadist leaders.
When I said that in our discussions some of the Russians got a very thougtful look on their faces. ;-)
