US officials are treating a report on an Afghan news website about a new video showing Osama bin Laden with scepticism.
The story from Pajhwok Afghan News, dated Tuesday, describes a new 30-minute tape with a message from Taliban commander Mullah Dodallah and the al Qaida leader, according to the IntelCenter, a US government contractor that works for intelligence agencies.
A US counterterrorism official, who spoke only on condition of anonymity in compliance with office policy, said the government could not confirm the the tapes existence, but said officials are aware of the media report.
US authorities are viewing it sceptically, the official said.
Bin Laden has not been heard from since a December 2004 audio.
That is the longest stretch the terror leader has been publicly quiet since the attacks of September 11, 2001.
Elvis ping..
Who cares what he has to say? Bush has him scared and hidding in a cave....
OBL is trying to steal Jim Rob's media spotlight!
It is being brought forward to mask over the success in Iraq. Don't let their propaganda get your attention.
Today or tomorrow is the 4th anniversary of the demise of the old goat.
Until I'm proven wrong, OBL died at Tora Bora.
If OBL wants to show the world he's alive, shoot a video with him holding up the front page of today's New York Times saying "I wish to congratulate the New York Giants on their thrilling overtime win over the Philadelphia Eagles by the score of 26 to 23."
Otherwise, he's scorpion poop at this point.

"You know, I'm going to start thanking
the woman who cleans the restroom in
the building I work in. I'm going to start
thinking of her as a human being"
Is it this video?

That guy had some kind of liver problem a while ago. How is he doing?
I thought that was a Paris Hilton video? Did OBL have cosmetic surgery?
Plus, if he looks different, then we won't buy that either.
Can you imagine what the world would have said had Churchill and Roosevelt hid in caves during WWII? And the 'Rats claim we're not winning.
Here's a still frame from the tape showing the vibrant Osama speaking from a telephone booth:
Here's another frame showing Osama keeping a hostage Amercian soldier in-line:
Stay tuned for more exclusive footage from the terrorist tape. Be scared!
I thought it was his kidneys....;-)
He was supposed to go on Dialysis, supposedly it was never finished. Also supposedly the guy died after the earthquake.
