With no mention of last week's attempt on his life, Ayman al-Zawahiri recited poetry to jihadists on a 17-minute audiotape that appeared on the Internet on Friday.

Osama bin Laden's top lieutenant was the target of a January 13 CIA airstrike on a home in Damadola, Pakistan, where al Qaeda members were believed to be attending a dinner.

You Jihad poets dress like witches,
But your stampeding leaves me in stitches!

I was scheduled for dinner with friends
Now they've all met with untimely ends
Too far gone for surgeons
They're getting their virgins
I'm getting the message Bush sends

Your suicide bombers make me feel somber,
But to see you in women's bloomers restores my humor.

Sheesh! Doesn't anyone want to play!

I'm thinking that the bomb came a little closer than we thought.

Ayman al-Zawahiri and Allen Ginsburg. Separated at birth?

My own poem...

Anger, Sorrow

We let them come in peace
Let them into our lives.
Why do they hurt us?
How can they justify?

They killed 3,000 souls that day
Faces all with family ties
Loved ones,
Died.

A blur of faces caused this rift
A single man sent those men
and he won't stop till we stop him
that bastard's gonna die.

He may not have pulled the trigger
Nor did he have to give the order
he may have just sat there gloating
while loved ones' corpses lay there bloating.

He claims my loved ones died for cause
how dare he claim them for his own
They died without a warning
they died that grim September morning.

Now we have him on the run
We won't stop until we are done
We'll chase him through all the lands
Till we catch him,
or his blood is on our hands.

He is dead. His people probably found the only thing they could to release to the media. A stupid poetry tape. No time stamps, nothing. I think he is dead.

No wonder those folks are suicidal. Islamic poetry?!? Multiple wives! Multiple mother in laws! I'd be looking to blow myself up too.

There once was a man named Osama
That had a fat pig he called Mama
He said with a sneer
Knowing our boys were near
Thanks to Brokeback I know that I am queer.

Ya gotta cut me some slack, I've had two glasses of wine already... ;o)

And . . IF he is dead, that means his art will be valued more. Yikes! Think about it; how many poets are valued whne they are alive? There'll be a book. Just wait.

There once was a man from Riyadh
He decided to start a Jihad
His name was Osama
He fornicates with his mama
He now has issues with women

On his low-quality tapes he bloviates
about how he once defeated the soviets
And his butt boy Ayman al Zawahir
looks like a queer
And now they both live in a cave

He was once a wealthy billionaire,
but is now full of despair
because the US froze all of his money
ironic it is and funny
that he now has a lower standard of living
than people in America who are on welfare.

Perhaps the "poetry" contains directions to cells in America. Perhaps they want us to think that.

Wouldn't it be great if the NSA intercepts picked up increased traffic, we listened and thwarted an attack?

The libs would scream that is was not worth the sacrifice of our liberties.
