CAIRO, Egypt (AP) - A new al-Qaida videotape posted Sunday on a militant Web site featured a short, undated clip of a weary-looking Osama bin Laden praising martyrdom.
The bin Laden clip, which lasted less than a minute, was part of a 40- minute video featuring purported al-Qaida fighters in Afghanistan paying tribute to fellow militants who have been killed in the country. It was posted by the group's media production wing.
Bin Laden glorified those who die in the name of jihad, or holy war, saying even the Prophet Muhammad "had been wishing to be a martyr."
"The happy (man) is the one that God has chosen him to be a martyr," added bin Laden, who was shown outdoors wearing army fatigues and looking tired.
I saw it on FOX. It was very dark and his fingers looked skeletal.
So martyr yourself already Osama.
Looks more like Huey Newton , radical of the 60”s..black Panthers and SNNC.
To quote myself...
“A thug is a thug is a thug!” ( God, I am just brilliant tonight!”)
Weekend at Bernie’s...
Now playing: "Weekend at Binnie's"
Nah...
Now that is a great idea for a you tube movie.
Synchronicity. Great minds and all that. :^)
"Yo Ayman! Dude, this is some good s#!t. Get one of the Mohammeds to bring the bong over here!"
There yuh go...
So that is the “Great news coming very soon” that the terrorist websites and forums were buzzing about for the last two weeks.
lol!
The ragheads are mentally retarded but even they must be getting tired of this jihad crap, you would think anyway.

Bin Laden stresses martyrdom in short segment of new As Sahab video
He himself said ‘By Him in Whose Hands my life is!
I would love to attack and be martyred,
then attack again and be martyred,
then attack again and be martyred.’
Those are the words of Osama Bin Laden in a short clip from a longer As Sahab video obtained this morning by LauraMansfield.com.
The Bin Laden clip appears to be a short portion of an older video of the Al Qaeda leader speaking to his followers about martyrdom. There are no indications as to the date when the clip was filmed.
Bin Laden is shown dressed in dark, with a camouflage jacket, and a dark cap. He has a ring and a watch on his right hand, and gestures freely with both hands.
In the clip, 50 seconds long, Bin Laden says:
The seal of the prophets and all messengers (reference to Prophet Mohammed), prayers and peace be upon him, wished this status.
So be alert, be wise and think.
What is this status that the best of mankind wished for himself?
He wished to be a martyr.
He himself said ‘By Him in Whose Hands my life is! I would love to attack and be martyred, then attack again and be martyred, then attack again and be martyred.’
So this whole broad life is summarized by he who was inspired by God, the lord of the heavens and earth, praised and exalted is He.
This glorious prophet who was inspired by God summarized this entire life by these words. He wished upon himself this status. Happy is the one who was chosen by god as a martyr.
The remainder of the video includes various clips showing jihadist fighters reading their final wills, as well as statements from new Al Qaeda in Afghanistan commander Abu Yazid.
The video surfaced on jihadist forums where similar Al Qaeda statements have been released previously. It is branded with the As Sahab logo. No subtitles were provided.

What a pansy. He doesn't have the guts to martyr himself. What a shameless, murderous pud.
Nice to see you still are around...:-)
