So much for the Left's professed love of FREEDOM OF SPEECH.

Democrats can dish it out, but they sure as hell can't take it. What idiotic hypocrites.

From the FULL TRANSLATION! Al-Jazeera didn't include this in the video clip, but put the full transcript on the website:

http://english.aljazeera.net/NR/exeres/79C6AF22-98FB-4A1C-B21F-2BC36E87F61F.htm

MOCKING THE WTC JUMPERS!!!!!

CALLING BUSH THE 'LIAR' IN THE WHITE HOUSE!

"Among the most important of what I read in them was some prose in their gestures before the collapse, where they say, "How mistaken we were to have allowed the White House to implement its aggressive foreign policies against the weak without supervision." It is as if they were telling you, the people of America, "Hold to account those who have caused us to be killed, and happy is he who learns from others' mistakes," And among that which I read in their gestures is a verse of poetry, "Injustice chases its people, and how unhealthy the bed of tyranny."

As has been said, "An ounce of prevention is better than a pound of cure."

And know that, "It is better to return to the truth than persist in error." And that the wise man doesn't squander his security, wealth and children for the sake of the liar in the White House."

If all of the video had been shown earlier, people would have understood sooner what bin Laden's message really was.

I agree. Kerry is afraid that people might check into this and learn that Cavuto is right.

So much for the Left's professed love of FREEDOM OF SPEECH.

They've just revised their views to include "their free speech" not yours or mine.

Just look at the college campus to see what I mean.

Kerry's senior mouthpiece John Sasso "threatened to ban Fox News staff from the candidate's plane Friday night"

.....and will replace FOX news with the people from Al Jeera Network - one they feel is less biased toward Kerry.

No joke. Kerry couldn't handle the Swift Boat Vets, he couldn't handle Cavuto, and he couldn't handle his other critics. But voters are supposed to believe he'll be able to handle al-Qaeda??

Give me a break. Kerry ain't nothing but a limp-wristed mama's boy.

I think you are right. If you go on the Leftist boards they even don't like CNN they say they are becoming too much like Fox and even MSNBC. They love Al JERKZera!

Kerry will really be poed at Fox News. Fox News this morning carried the news that OBL threatened the voters in Red States not to vote for GW:

al Kerry is worse that Tokyo Rose. He is apparently backed by the same group that funds and backs OBL. The MSM failed to tell America that OBL threatened every state which votes for the "White Bush Thug". al Kerry's agenda and OBL's is the same, "Defeat GW at any cost!"

Ben Laden's Warning to Red states voting for GW!

Osama Bin Laden Tape Threatens U.S. States Not to Vote for Bush
By: Yigal Carmon*


The tape of Osama bin Laden that was aired on Al-Jazeera(1) on Friday, October 29th included a specific threat to "each U.S. state," designed to influence the outcome of the upcoming election against George W. Bush. The U.S. media in general mistranslated the words "ay wilaya" (which means "each U.S. state")(2) to mean a "country" or "nation" other than the U.S., while in fact the threat was directed specifically at each individual U.S. state. This suggests some knowledge by bin Laden of the U.S. electoral college system. In a section of his speech in which he harshly criticized George W. Bush, bin Laden stated: "Any U.S. state that does not toy with our security automatically guarantees its own security."
The Islamist website Al-Qal'a explained what this sentence meant: "This message was a warning to every U.S. state separately. When he [Osama Bin Laden] said, 'Every state will be determining its own security, and will be responsible for its choice,' it means that any U.S. state that will choose to vote for the white thug Bush as president has chosen to fight us, and we will consider it our enemy, and any state that will vote against Bush has chosen to make peace with us, and we will not characterize it as an enemy. By this characterization, Sheikh Osama wants to drive a wedge in the American body, to weaken it, and he wants to divide the American people itself between enemies of Islam and the Muslims, and those who fight for us, so that he doesn't treat all American people as if they're the same. This letter will have great implications inside the American society, part of which are connected to the American elections, and part of which are connected to what will come after the elections."(3)

Another interesting aspect of the speech is the fact that while bin Laden made his specific threat to each U.S. state, he also offered an election deal to the American voters, attempting to influence the election by these means rather than influencing it through terrorist attacks.(4) This peace offer is a theme that follows up on his April speech directed to Europe, in which he offered a truce.(5) The Islamist website Al-Islah explains: "Some people ask 'what's new in this tape?' [The answer is that] this tape is the second of its kind, after the previous tape of the Sheikh [Osama bin Laden], in which he offered a truce to the Europeans a few months ago, and it is a completion of this move, and it brings together the complementary elements of politics and religion, political savvy and force, the sword and justice. The Sheikh reminds the West in this tape of the great Islamic civilization and pure Islamic religion, and of Islamic justice..."(6)

Another conspicuous aspect of the tape is the absence of common Islamist themes that are relevant to the month of Ramadan, which for fundamentalists like bin Laden is the month of Jihad and martyrdom. Noticeably absent from the Al-Jazeera tape was his usual appearance with a weapon, and more importantly the absence of references to Jihad, martyrdom, the Koran, the Hadith (Islamic tradition), Crusaders, Jews, and the legacy of the Prophet Muhammad on the duty to wage Jihad against the infidels. For the followers of the Al-Qa'ida ideology, this speech sends a regressive and defeatist message of surrender, as seen in the move from solely using Jihad warfare to a mixed strategy of threats combined with truce offers and election deals.

The following are the relevant excerpts from the speech; for the full excerpts visit the MEMRI TV Project at www.memritv.org:(7)

"Oh the American people, I address these words to you regarding the optimal manner of avoiding another Manhattan, and regarding the war, its causes, and its consequences. But before this, I say to you: Security is one of the important pillars of human life, and free men do not take their security lightly, contrary to Bush's claim that we hate freedom. Let him explain why we did not attack Sweden, for example. Clearly, those who hate freedom have no pride, unlike the 19 [suicide hijackers of 9/11], may Allah have mercy on them. We have been fighting you because we are free men who do not remain silent in the face of injustice. We want to restore our [Islamic] nation's freedom. Just as you violate our security, we violate yours.

"But I am amazed at you. Although we have entered the fourth year after the events of 9/11, Bush is still practicing distortion and deception against you and he is still concealing the true cause from you. Consequently, the motives for its reoccurrence still exist...

"We had no difficulty dealing with Bush and his administration, because it resembles the regimes in our [Arab] countries, half of which are ruled by the military, and the other half are ruled by the sons of kings and presidents with whom we have had a lot of experience. Among both types, there are many who are known for their conceit, arrogance, greed, and for taking money dishonestly.

"This resemblance began with the visit of Bush Sr. to the region. While some of our people were dazzled by the U.S. and hoped that these visits would influence our countries, it was he who was influenced by these monarchic and military regimes. He envied them for remaining in their positions for decades, while embezzling the nation's public funds with no supervision whatsoever. He bequeathed tyranny and the suppression of liberties to his son and they called it the Patriot Act, under the pretext of the war on terrorism.

"Bush Sr. liked the idea of appointing [his] sons as state governors. Similarly, he did not neglect to import into Florida the expertise in falsifying [elections] from the leaders of this region in order to benefit from it in difficult moments.

"We agreed with the general commander Muhammad Atta, may Allah have mercy on him, that all operations should be carried out within 20 minutes, before Bush and his administration would become aware. We never imagined that the Commander in Chief of the American armed forces would abandon 50,000 of his citizens in the twin towers to face this great horror alone when they needed him most. It seemed to him that a girl's story about her goat and its butting was more important than dealing with planes and their 'butting' into skyscrapers. This allowed us three times the amount of time needed for the operations, Allah be praised.

"Your security is not in the hands of Kerry or Bush or Al-Qa'ida. Your security is in your own hands, and any U.S. state that does not toy with our security automatically guarantees its own security."

The Dum Socialist totalitarian 'screaming harpy infants" haven't denounced NAMBLA because they see nothing wrong with rutting on babies and children;they haven't condemned Lenin, Stalin, Mao, or any of the other communist cabal of genocidal butchers because they believe that ridding the earth of certain categories of people is a 'moral good." So let's not hold our breath while waiting for them to do the right thing concerning the Fox News issue because they're totalitarians, which means they believe that censorship is another 'morally good' thing.

And Bin Laden will be back to his training camps, Iran won't have to worry about the IAEA since we will be sending them nuclear material for 'electricity' just like the Clinton Admin did with N. Korea, while they crossed their fingers that N. Korea would keep its word and not try to enrich uranium. And, and, and, and ...... ultimately we will be back to being as unsafe as we were before 9-11

Voters should really know Bin Laden is supporting Kerry. With another Democrat in office, he could go back to killing Americans indiscriminately. He knows it. He killed all he wanted up until he tried it with a Republican.
