...We are going to find out the bin Laden has been dead a long time, and someone like Adam Gadahn is behind this , cobbling a voice over of “binLaden” onto an old never-used or distributed tape... IMO we have seen this tape before: See Video stills from 2004:
Comparison:
Same background, same desk and he's still wearing the same clothes? How many left handed people gesture with their right hand? After a few minutes the video freezes and the voice drones on and on...
I'm almost convinced I can see the shadow of the 2004 beard on the shirt of the supposed 2007 image. Methinks the original beard has been erased and a new one photo-shopped on...?
does anyone actually see the lips moving and forming the Arabic words?
only in the section of the video that 'works' - where he's talking about allah blah blah blah...
someone like Adam Gadahn is behind this...
I agree.

"What does Iran and Iranian businesses have to do with this thread or binLaden, and why do you keep harping on it throughout this thread?"
Oh, you do have a temper and some insults when it comes to arguing with Americans from your keyboard. It's saddening that about half of our fellow Americans don't have the will to direct such temper against the enemy (as shown by the frequent denials that the enemy is alive, that Iran is a threat to us, and so on).
The answers to your questions (even to the insult in the form of a begged question) are obvious. And you've been posting your opinion in several threads about Bin Laden being dead.
Duncan Hunter for President.

Why act as this tape is creditable? Think about it for a minute... Osama speaks, and endorses the Moonbats' agenda. Osama ticks off their talking points, one-by-one. The man who masterminded the September 11, 2007 terrorist attack has put his lot in with the cut and run crowd.
Now, how many middle-of-the-road people will stick with the squishy idea that leaving Iraq will make the Islamofascists' not want to crash some more of our planes into more buildings. How many Lutheran grandmas from Nebraska (who go to church on Sudays and pray that "our boys and girls come home safe and soon," and that "little Iraqi children will have the same idyllic childhoods" that their own grandkids have in Nebraska) will be energized to vote for Obama or Edwards, knowing that the man who orchestrated the September 11th attacks has endorsed the 'Rat platform?
They should have a press conference and explain that the raghead on the tape is an impostor and explain that binny boy has been dead for quite some time.
Osama "alive" may be worth more to us in the war on Islamofascists. Afterall, now he's working for the Defeatocrat party.
Just a thought.

FOX NEWS"...American officials said the U.S. government had obtained a copy even though the video had not been posted yet by Al Qaeda — and intelligence agencies were studying the video to determine whether it was authentic and to look for clues about bin Laden's health.
In the video, a short excerpt of which was broadcast to the Arab world by Al-Jazeera television, bin Laden attacked capitalism, multinational corporations and globalization.
"This is why I tell you: as you liberated yourselves before from the slavery of monks, kings and feudalism, you should liberate yourselves from the deception, shackles and attrition of the capitalist system," he said.
Several current and former government officials said they believed an American — 28-year-old Adam Gadahn — may have written at least part of the speech.
Gadahn, who has been charged with treason and supporting terrorism for serving as an Al Qaeda propagandist, has appeared in several past Al Qaeda-produced videos, lecturing against capitalism and globalization and making insider references to American culture.
"It has Adam Gadahn written all over it," one former senior intelligence official said of bin Laden's tape, speaking on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the issue..."

Get up to speed on our enemies. Al Qaeda is Sunni; Al Qaeda in Mesopotamia is gleefully blowing up Shi’ite shrines and murdering Shi’ites with way more efficiency than they kill our troops.
The Iranian Shi’ites and their proxies in Iraq (Al Sadr’s crew) are another set of enemies, but if we left Iraq, they and Al Qaeda would be going at it tooth and nail, but initially our main allies (among Iraqi Arabs, as opposed to Kurds) in the wake of the overthrow of the Ba’athists were also Shi’ites. Only now that they conclude that the Al Qaeda Salafist variant of Sunni Islam is oppressive lunacy are we picking up Sunni allies in Iraq.

...yet another denial. The Shiites are training Al Qaeda guerrillas in Iran and sending them to Iraq and Afghanistan along with Shiite guerrillas.
Next!

You assert this. Any credible evidence? The Quds officers we’ve been picking up in Iraq have all been liasons between the Iranians and Shi’ite militias.
There is about 1300 years of bad blood between Sunni and Shia, and Al Qaeda has regularly issued statements making it clear they do not regard Shi’ites as Muslims.

Did Bin Laden ever cite Chomsky before?

Did Bin Laden ever cite Chomsky before? that's a hoot!
How about: 'Lend me your ears...'?
Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me your ears; I come to bury Caesar, not to praise him. The evil that men do lives after them; The good is oft interred ...
Osama's been reading Shakespeare?

I was impressed. He seems much better informed than the current leadership in the House and Senate.

Thanks for the link-—I’ll watch the tape only when I’m in the mood to listen to my blood boil again.

No one denies that Iran is possibly the GREATEST THREAT to us, but once again, why introduce Iran and Iran “facts” in such an indirect offhanded way into another subject?
And where exactly did I show a “temper”???You seem to have a pretty thin skin....how many debates have you actually been in on FR?
I heard he's sleeping on this guy's couch:
