"Holy war must have a goal. So what is its goal now?"

let's see now, the destruction of Israel, a grand Muslim caliphate stretching from Spain and Morocco all the way to Indonesia and of course, death to all infidels. Can any 'jihadi' tell me if I'm anywhere near right?

He can transform himself into anything he wishes. However, as soon as he pokes his head out of whatever hole he is hiding in, the US military is going to transform him into a pale-pink mist.

"He does not know any other means to make his point."

Hey, Osama! An office on K St. before 9-11? Works for everyone else.

[Oreo Kookey]

Oh let him come out of hiding, transform himself into anything he wants and the first chance we get, drop him like a couple of 103 story buildings.

Bin Laden seeks transformation

Yeah he wants to truly become like Ra's Al Ghul, complete with Lazarus Pit: virtually immortal.

 

(Ra's Al Ghul from the comics on left; actor Ken Watanabe as Ra's Al Ghul (which literally translates as "The Death's Head" in next summer's "Batman Begins" on right)

Just damn.

If you want on the list, FReepmail me. This IS a high-volume PING list...

[Lazamataz]

"Osama thinks if he takes over Saudi Arabia he can topple all other Islamic regimes," al-Thaydi said.

So, he's pretty much Hitler.

"Holy war must have a goal. So what is its goal now?"

Since most of the middle east was christian before these butchers came along, why doesn't OBL have a goal of getting the @#$% out of the entire middle east and turning it over to christians???

[Berosus]

Having Osama "morph" into something besides a terrorist would be a pretty good trick, considering that he's probably not alive. I haven't believed any of the audio or video tapes that have come out over the past three years. In the last credible one, dated December 2001, he looked awful, like they had to shove a broomstick up the back of his robe to keep him from falling over.

For that matter, if Osama didn't die in the aftermath of Tora Bora, we should be able to catch him, once we find the studio that's producing the tapes!

[marty60]

Get ready for a stomach churning blaspheme.

[Jumper]

Bin Laden may mistakenigly beleive that the world will embrace another Arafat....

[Feckless]

Israelis may have had some reasons, none of them good, for letting Arafat make his "transformation" which was fake at best.

America will never let OBL get the chance. Dead or alive.

[xp38]

The only transformation he needs is to go from life to death.

[Conservative Canuck]

Okay, so he's back on his medication. As soon as he goes off it again...

He still doesn't get it, and never will. Nobody's fooled anymore (well, except the usual Euro-appeasers and US rats)by the "I used to be a terrorist, but this is a new dawn for my people and now I'm entering the political process as a politician" a-la-Arafat scam. He's dead meat, and it won't matter where he is or who he's with or what Euro-trash friends he's made when he's found. He, and all his followers, will be pursued mercilessly to the end of the Earth and made to pay not just for what they did, but what they ARE.

[gaspar]

I must assume that Nasrawi is a Palestinian. I defy anyone to read his articles over the last two years and finish with any other conclusion that he is deviously and consistently anti-American. He should be dumped, but that would be too obviously impolitical and not serve the ends of the MSM.

[GreenHornet]

Osama bin Laden appears to be trying to transform himself from terrorist to political leader

.....following the precedent established by Al Sharpton and Yasir Arafat.
