In that case read the entire article (at the link) from post 659. Arggggg.
The Latest Bin Laden Video Tape A Fraud?
Has a few comparison pics, for those of you discussing it earlier.
I still say it's him.
The first (new) and 3rd (oldest) pictures don't look all that different. The lighting is much different in the recent tape as well, harder to differentiate facial features.
The way that site has things layed out is a bit misleading since the second image is UBL after being on the run for a long while. He is obviously way underweight in the middle picture, likely because he was always on the move.
The new image shows me a UBL that is no longer on the run. One that is eating several meals a day. One who no longer fears bombs falling on his head while he sleeps.
What a gift it is to be able to host exchange students!
We did it for about twelve years. Our guests were mostly from Germany, Lithuania, Latvia and Brazil.
I feel that we learned more from them than they learned from us. Now that our granddaughter got her own apartment, thus freeing a bedroom, I'm ready to host the students again. It is one of the best things I've ever done.
I strongly urge anyone who is able to do this, to open their homes and hearts to these wonderful young people. You won't be sorry.
Don't know what made that big blank white space under my post.
I have no idea. But if it is him he has put on weight and cleaned up a bit!
As usual, I agree with all you wrote!
I hate getting that post number. It's like the 13th floor or something.
Well stated judicial meanz. Your message should be a mandatory read to newbies (and those with moods or attitudes) coming here to post.
Very provocative points, maine-iac7. Nice to have you aboard the Threat Matrix.
Continued prayers for him (and you) Crabbie. Agreed, home would be very very good and soon.
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm. I do not know what to think now.
Militants Begin to Spread Information about new Bin Laden Tape
Source: Al-Ansar | 9:18:12 PM EST
As we have been reporting this entire week, we have confirmed that Al-Jazeera is in possession of a new Bin Laden "Terror Tape". As to when they air this tape, that is completely up to them. As we have reported earlier, the United States is eagerly pressuring Al-Jazeera into not airing any portion of the new video tape.
We were waiting for militants to begin spreading news about this tape as it apparently has been released on a few highly secret Al-Qaeda websites. A few insurgents are already praising the release of this new tape. One of the comments that has been posted, is posted by a member that commonly speaks in broken English when discussing Jihad related events. It appears as found, below

Oops. Bad link in my last post. http://www.trackingterrorism.com
don't see America spelled like that very often. And what is NC members? or membres.
Thank you Pegita for your wonderful prayer. May God grant comfort to this man's family and to the families of each of the other victims of these fanatical zealots.
That I also am wondering about...don't know what it means yet.
It will be interesting to see what happens with this. I certainly believe it is possible that there is a tape, but I am skeptical.
"Disenfranchised zots?"
They are delicious and sell out quickly...on the top shelf next to the TrollBGone.
Off-topic, but I am so peeved I am compelled to post it.

Chirac KO's Bush offer

GEORGE Bush yesterday offered an olive branch to hostile European leaders but was snubbed by the French President.
Referring to divisions over the Iraq war, the re-elected US leader said: Whatever our past disagreements, we share a common enemy. I will continue to reach out to our partners in the EU.
Mr Bush also said he will use his new muscle to defeat terrorism. He said: I earned political capital in the election and I intend to spend it.
But French President Jacques Chirac dubbed Le Worm was doing his best to scupper bridge-building.
He will snub a meeting with Iraqi PM Iyad Allawi in Brussels today. It is a sleight aimed at Mr Bush and Tony Blair, who back Mr Allawi.
Chirac who tried to stop the war to topple Saddam Hussein will leave Brussels before the new Iraqi leader arrives.
However Chirac DID find time to visit Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat in hospital yesterday.
Meanwhile, Mr Blair was working to heal rifts over Iraq, and flew to Brussels to rally EU leaders.
Last night he called on Europes leaders to end their state of denial over Mr Bushs election win.
He told The Times countries against the war must now work with the US.
The PM said: The election has happened. America has spoken. The rest of the world should listen.
It is important that America listens to the rest of the world too.
The fact is that President Bush is there for four years. Some people are in a sort of state of denial.
