Bin Laden: Attack on US to Stop Support for Israel
Reuters ^

Posted on 12/26/2001 12:38:08 PM PST by madrussian

LONDON (Reuters) - Osama bin Laden (news - web sites), the world's most wanted man, said on a video broadcast by al-Jazeera satellite television on Wednesday that the September 11 suicide attacks were intended to stop U.S. support for Israel.

``Our terrorism against the United States is worthy of praise to deter the oppressor so that America stop its support for Israel, which is killing our children,'' the bearded, Saudi-born fugitive said.

He added that the tape was being issued to mark about three months since the attacks on New York and Washington and two months after the United States began its bombing of Afghan targets.

The remarks indicated the tape was recorded in early to mid December.

Looking tired but calm, bin Laden was dressed in a clean, camouflage-patterned combat jacket. He sat against a cloth or canvas screen, his Russian-designed submachinegun propped beside him. There was no indication where he was when he recorded the video.

Don't be so coy about the "appropriate parties" and share the details of your anticipatory glee.

Waiting for a spin of the Israel-firsters of their "it had nothing to do with Israel".

Of course it has something to do with Israel, among other things. We still stand by Israel. One day you'll see the consequences of the countries who don't stand by her, if it happens within your lifetime. Not sure what part of it we'll be able to see from the afterlife but I dang sure know which side of the equation I want to be found on.

Thanks for the synopsis, but I'd have to research more about that war to give you a meaningful answer.

How 'bout if you just offer an opinion based upon what I wrote? Why would that be so hard? Brits living there since 18xx, what did I say? Brits living there continuously since. Only Argentines, in the prior ten years, on the islands are visitors. Argentines invade, and conquer. Brits counter and recapture.

You really couldn't choose sides?

Would you fault me because I did?

Two decades from now, I can't wait to enjoy watching what will happen to the appropriate parties :)

Who are the appropriate parties, what do you think will happen to them, and why will watching it give you pleasure?

"But that's not American enough for Israel-firsters."

Hmm, are the Stormfront/Zundelbots giving up on "Zionist" for "Israel-firsters" now? Have they finally figured out that as soon as they belch out the zee-werd it's game-over time? What lousy strategists, to think that a mere substitution would give them the slip!

"I have absolutely no doubt that you can produce all kinds of things linking to the Spotlight in some form or fashion."

Yes, it's gotten pretty easy since the whiter-than-thou disruptor squads have ratcheted up their posting efforts for the past month or so. In fact, it's getting downright difficult to avoid soiling one's eyes with spotlight-style sewage on FR as of late.

"Shall we expect your Zionist conspiracy theory to be made expressly or shall we leave it as a necessary implication of your post?"

Don't be silly. They're not "Zionists" anymore, they're now called "Israel firsters". Gotta stay ahead of the agitprop curve if you wanna be disruptor-proof on Today's FR.

If Bin Laden attacked the USA because of our support for Israel, then we should demonstrate to him and fellow crazies that terror doesn't pay, and support Israel even more. I suggest we sign a mutual defense treaty with Israel.

GO BUSH -LET'S ROLL!!!!

"I suggest you read columns by Sam Francis, Pat Buchanan and Joe Sobran."

You forgot to mention Davids Duke and Irving, and your main man, Samya B. Ladinovich.

"The billions sent to Arab nations are bribes designed to keep Israel-friendly regime in the office."

Boy, talk about damned if you do, damned if you don't. In your twisted little world, no matter who does what to who, it's The Joos! The Joos! The Joos! that are ultimately at fault.

It must hurt to twist reality like a pretzel.

Sorry. Stuck in second gear I guess. The first gear was "Jews". The euphemisms are still being perfected by the pseudo-America-first-Islamo-wannabees.

I don't know...it seems to me that the discussions on FR used to be more intellectual and fact-based. I've waded through this whole mess and all I've discovered is, "your momma's one too." The juvenile name-calling is pointless. I was looking for a discussion about the ben-laden tape released today. Yes, I could have ignored the thread, but for once I had the time to read, and did so out of curiosity. And yes, it was a waste of time. Carry on.

You don't get paid Veronica? The Zionist Conspiracy Fund pays me $15 an hour for being a Jewish shill on FR. I have software on my pc that tracks when I am posting. They haven't paid me in three weeks though! Those damn cheap Jews...

"Just who are these 'Israel-firsters' that have you so upset?"

They're the eeeevil bunch formerly known as "Zionists" (AKA "Joooooos!").

I think he must have gotten subscribed a few thousand extra times on the whiter-than-thou fax tree, he's used the New Term about eleventy nine times in this thread alone!
