New bin Laden Tape, Recorded Shortly Before Death, Expected to Surface Soon

WASHINGTON (AP) — U.S. intelligence officials believe Osama bin Laden made a propaganda recording shortly before his death and expect that tape to surface soon.

It’s unclear whether the tape is audio or video, but a U.S. official says that intelligence indicates it’s already working its way through al-Qaida’s media pipeline. The official said the timing was coincidental and there’s no indication he knew U.S. forces were bearing down on him.

A new recording from bin Laden would provide a final word from the beyond grave for a terrorist who taunted the U.S. with recorded propaganda for years. It could also provide fodder to those who insist he is still alive.

    This situation is somewhat suspicious. After 11 years in the Army and 3 deployments to Iraq, it just doesn’t synch completely with reality; it seem more like a staged political event than an actual military operation. Dumping the body into the ocean so soon after the event is highly suspicious.

    When we killed Saddam’s sons and then later Al-Zarqawi, we were very concerned that the Arabs would actually believe that they were in fact dead. Photos were released quickly and we brought in witness who could identify the remains and vouch that they were who we claimed they were.

    We should have held onto the body for evidence at some undiclosed location.

    Did any of the family members verify the body?

    Considering this “compound” was 300 feet from the entrance to “an elite” Pakistani military training center, had 12-18 foot high walls, cost $1million, was 8-12 times larger than other buildings/compounds in the village that was primarily a military outpost… What is the likelihood of the nuclear armed nation of Pakistan having made “stuff” available to Osama for his war on the infidel west?

    Anybody else even the least bit suspicious here?

    I believe it was Bill Hemmer who announced excitedly that a tape had been received from Bin Ladin and he speculated it was made before his death…just before he said ..or later..he caught himself and stopped talking. Where does FOX find these mental giants.

      The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command. His heart sank as he thought of the enormous power arrayed against him, the ease with which any Party intellectual would overthrow him in debate, the subtle arguments which he would not be able to understand, much less answer. And yet he was in the right! They were wrong and he was right. The obvious, the silly, and the true had got to be defended. Truisms are true, hold on to that! The solid world exists, its laws do not change. Stones are hard, water is wet, objects unsupported fall towards the earth’s centre. With the feeling that he was speaking to O’Brien, and also that he was setting forth an important axiom, he wrote:

      Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows.

      Yea Sinist(er)…

      …it really “gets fun” when a president has zero credibility anymore with the American People, doesn’t it?

      I bet this notion (coupled with his race) is really getting under your thin skin, isn’t it?

      No dear…SUSAN thinks it is getting fun….Sinist(er) is thinking quite the opposite.

      Saying an opposite, doesn’t work these days…now run along child, and go study your Sinist(er) English book.

      My pseudonymous name is spelled that way deliberately- a little something called ebonics. I find myself explaining that to a lot of neocons trying to pose as Tea Party members.

      Anyway, Obama’s lack of credibility is under my skin, it’s awfully convenient for him to pull this rabbit out of a hat.

      If you really think this is getting fun, then you must not know that Osama Bin Ladin has been dead for years.

    Wonder which group will get Obozo more points…

    1) The group that thinks OBL is still alive.
    2) The group that thinks he was actually killed today.
    3) The group that thinks he has long been dead.
    4) The four people working at CNBC.

    Nice play, White House. Your administration is about as transparent and trusting as…uhm..

    …OBL’s wacko misfits. You had better put your re-election campaign on ice, also, if you want to preserve it.

      Once again he glanced at his rival in the opposite cubicle. Something seemed to tell him with certainty that Tillotson was busy on the same job as himself. There was no way of knowing whose job would finally be adopted, but he felt a profound conviction that it would be his own. Comrade Ogilvy, unimagined an hour ago, was now a fact. It struck him as curious that you could create dead men but not living ones. Comrade Ogilvy, who had never existed in the present, now existed in the past, and when once the act of forgery was forgotten, he would exist just as authentically, and upon the same evidence, as Charlemagne or Julius Caesar.

    Osama’s dead . . . big deal….we still have a muslim brotherhood muslim in the White House. Re-focus, folks. If we prove his long form birth certificate is a fraud (already proved) then WE THE PEOPLE can make a CITIZENS ARREST wherever he is in the country. Give him no place in public where thousands of CITIZENS will not show up to have him ARRESTED for fraud. He NEVER was eligible to be President and just because he played one on TV for the last 18 months, doesn‘t mean he’s not just a simple common criminal. ARREST HIM, CITIZENS!! No “impeachment” needed…Biden steps in for 2 years and the “fraud” perp goes straight to jail, does not pass go, and does not collect $200 as his monopoly game is OVER!!!

      Here’s an idea, Thom. Why don‘t YOU try to make the citizen’s arrest. Just show up to wherever the president’s going to be with your handcuffs at the ready. Then, when the moment’s right, just run up to him real fast and nab him. And you should probably bring a toy firearm, too, but not one of those Nerf ones with the orange tips; bring a realistic one so it looks official and stuff. This way he‘ll know you’re not bluffing. Okay? Got it? Good luck! ;-)
