Al Qaeda's Ayman al-Zawahiri, in videotape on Al-Jazeera, says U.S. airstrike against him in Pakistan failed.

I think it helps Bush.
Shows the need for real security measures.
So we'll blow his ass up next time, relax. Picture all the ghostly corpses of his evil comrades blown to hell. We missed him, this time, but I bet a lot of his friends were blown to bits in those houses, and he knows it.
"I think it helps Bush.

Of course it helps Bush,but the Demwitts will try to spin it. Don't forget the Dems and Alqaeda seem to be on the same side these days....lol
at least now we know about how long it takes a tape to make it via courier from the tribal regions to Al Jazeera.
Kerry will be right along to add Zawahiri's quips into his speeches.
Somebody close to him gave him up, and he knows it. In fact maybe he gave the people at that dinner up. We didn't spot these guys driving around, there are plenty among him telling us where to drop the bombs. If he's not the informant himself, they'll be scraping his remains up for dna testing soon enough. He's a dead man.
"Heck, they're no more anti-American than CNN. CNN is just more
polished about it."
While it's shocked me, that's my impression as well.
The material that I've looked at on their online archive (e.g.,
history of Hamas) does read like a CNN report.

Al-Zawahri Calls Bush a 'Butcher' in Video Breitbart.com 1/30/06
CAIRO, Egypt - Al-Qaida No. 2 Ayman al-Zawahri said in a videotape aired Monday that President Bush was a "butcher" and a "failure" because of a deadly U.S. airstrike in Pakistan targeting the bin Laden deputy.
Al-Zawahri, shown in the video wearing white robes and a white turban, said a Jan. 13 airstrike in the eastern village of Damadola killed "innocents," and he said the United States had ignored an offer from al-Qaida leader Osama bin Laden for a truce.
"Butcher of Washington, you are not only defeated and a liar, but also a failure. You are a curse on your own nation," he said, referring to Bush. "Bush, do you know where I am? I am among the Muslim masses."
The airstrike hit a building in Damadola, killing four al-Qaida leaders. Thirteen villagers also were killed in the strike, angering many Pakistanis.
The video was Zawahri's first appearance since the airstrike.
"My second message is to the American people, who are drowning in illusions. I tell you that Bush and his gang are shedding your blood and wasting your money in frustrated adventures," he said, speaking in a forceful and angry voice.
"The lion of Islam, Sheik Osama bin Laden, may God protect him, offered you a decent exit from your dilemma. But your leaders, who are keen to accumulate wealth, insist on throwing you in battles and killing your souls in Iraq and Afghanistan and God willing on your own land."
The video came in the wake of a Jan. 19 audiotape by bin Laden in which he warned that al-Qaida is preparing attacks in the United States but offered a truce "with fair conditions" to build Iraq and Afghanistan.
The tape aired on Al-Jazeera was the first message from bin Laden in more than a year.
This is the correct outlook to take on this - The reality is that this latest reported *hit* in the Pak border region took out a number of valued al Qeade leadership -
The tone from this newest Zawahiri video speaks volumes to me. Much more agitated and angry.
We need to continue with these type Operations and even become more aggressive in our tactics to take these guys out.
I have been meaning to get that book, thanks for the reminder. It is interesting that Zawahiri has a total black background behind him..maybe he is transmitting from hell....lol
Yes we can count on their news service here to release it!
Bush: "The bombing begins in 5 minutes". LOL!
"Bush, do you know where I am? I am among the Muslim masses."
Now that took courage....(rolling eyes)
"Bush: "The bombing begins in 5 minutes". LOL!"
LOL I wish he would.
..psssst sheeeethead...it's looking for you
