I want to know what the hell this means.
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/6363306/?GT1=5472

Al-Qaida leader Osama bin Laden, in a videotape broadcast Friday on Al-Jazeera television, claims full responsibility for the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks in the United States and warns Americans that “your security is not in the hands of Kerry or Bush or al-Qaida. Your security is in your own hands.”

WTF KINDA TALK IS THAT FROM A SUPPOSED RELIGOUS EXPTREMIST?

Osama gave a speech about American futures being in our own hands? It's not in the hands of Kerry, Bush or al-Qaida - he disses al-Qaida?
This smells like grade A bullshit.

10. Actually it's not funny
It goes to show just how this man thinks. We funded his war in Afghanistan against the Soviets - Osama was our Saddam in the 80s (Reagan probably loved Binny), and he has deep connections into the CIA (he worked for them for who knows how long). Yet here he is looking healthy and well - he beat the Soviets. This guy is extremely dangerous and he just told people - in a country he had a hand in killing 3,000 people - nobody rules over you. That's fucking scary shit.

3. Osama has until January 21st
Then just like the Iranian hostages in Inauguration Day of 1981, the fun times are over for the terrorists.

I predict that Kerry will have Bin Laden killed with two months.

AND- it will not be done by Afghan rebels. An USAF bomber will do the trick.

8. Actually, it does
You have to know your enemy/former friend in order to knoow how to defeat him. Now, Osama's viewpoint is, well, kinda weird to us ... but it makes sense to a lot of other people. Hmmm, kinda like Jerry Falwell with robes and a bomb, hoping to save us from ourselves. You know the mindset.

Flip side of the madman's coin ... if you make enough enemies in the world, someday one of 'em is gonna getcha.
