DUBAI (Reuters) - Al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden said in a video tape aired on Saturday that the United States could face renewed attacks because the reasons for mounting the Sept. 11 strikes still existed. In his clearest comments yet taking responsibility for the attacks three years ago, he said just days before President Bush faces re-election: "Despite entering the fourth year after Sept. 11, Bush is still deceiving you and hiding the truth from you and therefore the reasons are still there to repeat what happened."
He said he thought of the idea of attacking the U.S. skyscrapers when he saw Israeli aircraft bombing tower blocks in Lebanon in 1982.

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. (Reuters) - Democratic presidential contender Sen. John Kerry on Friday vowed to "stop at nothing" to hunt down Osama bin Laden after the al Qaeda leader released a videotape commenting on the U.S. election.
"In response to this tape of Osama bin Laden, let me make it clear, crystal clear, as Americans we are absolutely united in our determination to hunt down and destroy Osama bin Laden and the terrorists," Kerry told reporters on a campaign stop in the hotly contested state of Florida.
"They are barbarians and I will stop at absolutely nothing to hunt down and capture or kill the terrorists wherever they are, whatever it takes. Period."
Some one should explain to Kerry that he over stepped with that line ... He isn't the President
Those pictures... George W Bush looks like he's carrying the weight of the world, while Kerry looks like he's already half dead.
