That terrorists eyes looks eerily similar to the guy posted above from Cali. Sure, the picture is old as hell, but it looks like it could be him.

This tape was retrieved in Pakistan, right? I don't know how anyone can say it's fake. Going that route is quite Kerryish.

I posted an article that says EXACTLY how the tape was obtained and who obtained it. If you get a tape from Pakistan produced by As-Sahab, and ISI and Al Jazeera think it's authentic then you damn well better take it seriously.

Why am I not surprised that he is from California--probably buddies with that other little freak who got caught in Afganistan (can't remember his name)!!

Man, that is one gay terrorist

Not, I think, a sequence of words I've ever seen together, before this.

Just because it's not your average terrorist doesn't mean it's fake. This could be an american hiding here in America at the moment.

Again, it may look fake, but he could seriously be on a mission.

And while Fox was airing the video footage, blather at cbs was joyfully reporting the fbi investigation into Haliburton.

. "Some people speculate that the tape is a hoax made by people who wanted the cash, but $500 would be a paltry sum to get for the amount of work that went into making that video," Gretchen says. "The speaker is fluent in English, is extremely articulate, the subtitling is in perfect Arabic, and he makes all the Al Qaeda arguments." -- Gretchen Peters (the correspondant that obtained the tape)

If you get a tape from Pakistan produced by As-Sahab, and ISI and Al Jazeera think it's authentic then you damn well better take it seriously.

Was it this article (excerpted)?


Analysts at Pakistan's spy agency, the ISI, say the tape is genuine, explaining the material bears the same "signature" as previous As-Sahab video releases, which are unique in the world of jihadi video for their sophisticated editing techniques.

It features the same gold logo that appeared, among other places, in a 2003 statement from Mr. bin Laden.

There's also simultaneous Arabic subtitling - a complicated and time consuming process to put together - and a scrolling message across the bottom of the screen (similar to the news tickers on CNN and Fox) that was featured on a recent statement from al-Zawahiri.

Since Sept. 11, 2001, as-Sahab has consistently pushed the frontiers of jihad media, publishing everything from "Nineteen Martyrs" (the story of the 9/11 hijackers) to live action terrorist attacks in Saudi Arabia captured on video, says terrorism consultant Evan Kohlmann, who saw a portion of the material. "For someone to put that amount of advanced effort into fabricating an as-Sahab video sounds a little far-fetched," he says.

Ahmad Muffaq Zaidan, Pakistan's bureau chief for the Arab-language network Al Jazeera and the recipient of past As-Sahab material here, also rated the material genuine. "We have seen this style before - the translation, the logo, the scroll," he says.

The US intelligence official agrees that "there's a production value" to the tape.

"The tape itself was edited and portions were spliced together," he says. "It probably was worked on for a period of time - probably done fairly recently, as recently as late summer."

The tape's speaker references the conflict in Darfur, the 9/11 commission, Massachusetts same sex legislation, and the upcoming US presidential election.

I bet the reason it took the CIA so long was the agents couldn't stop laughing.

"Low production values and someone who speaks fluent American style English doesn't necessarily mean fake"

Yes, I understand that. After viewing it, my gut feeling was that it is fake. I could be wrong, and it wouldn't be the first time. If they think it might be Adam Gadahn, I believe it would be easy to identify him from the picture.

The guy is wearing small lens sun glasses to prevent us from seeing the color of his eyes.

I don't think it is fake.

It is obviously a person with a terrorist mindset who wishes harm on Americans.

I think on Tueday, the American people will tell Bush (with their votes) to continue to kill people like him.
