This was either written by a follower of the deceased or a member of the American left. How much distortion is possible in one letter? This might be a record!

One simple response: name a single muslim/arab country that has ever gone to the aid of another country in time of need... I'm waiting... thought so.

Name even 1/5 of the times the U.S. has helped others after natural disasters, wars (even against us) and oppression of peoples. Bet you can't do this either.

Dead men shouldn't talk.

[dyed_in_the_wool]

You run a society contrary to the nature of mankind by separating religion from your policies.

Obviously, he's never read Locke's Second Treatise on Government.
Everyone, this a war of Secular Humanism against Islam. Don't let anyone tell you different. Like it or not, guess which side you're on?

[mwl1]

Dead or alive, bin Laden and al Qeada are jealous of the attention that the Beltway sniper is getting.

· You are the biggest nation that destroys our natural surroundings and pollutes it with industrial waste. You then refuse to sign the KITO agreement, so that you can continue to profit from these industries, whilst leaving a world barely inhabitable for our children.

· Your law is the law of the rich and wealthy people. Behind you, there are the Jews who are controlling your policies, media and economy.


· The most unique thing about you, is your use of weapons and power everywhere -- not for defensive purposes, but for destructive ones. It is you who dropped a nuclear bomb on Japan, even though Japan was ready to negotiate an end to the war. So what is left on the list of the most heinous, evil and unjust acts that you have not done? And you call your self the nation of freedom and justice.



This reads less like a Islamic Terroist and more like a left wing socialist trying to convince Americans of the "error" of our foreign policy. Does anyone else see this too?

"One interesting sidenote...much of this seems to come from the same talking points being used by the American and the European left. "

LOL. I noticed that too... Interesting how the stupid and the evil often agree on so much.

We call you to Islam; the last religion that has replaced all the previous religions; the religion of good manners, sincerity, mercy, fear of Allah, kindness to others, justice between people, giving the rights to people who deserve them, protection of people from oppressors and unjust acts; the religion which calls upon its followers to amr bil maroof (enjoin the good) and nahi an al-munkar (forbid the evil) with hand, tongue and heart.

Free Clue Bin Rotten: You didn't demonstrate ANY of the above on Sept. 11th 2001 did you? By your own words, you are a HYPOCRITE. Likely a DEAD HYPOCRITE!

Rot in HELL bin Laden.

I'm on the side of secular humanism, in this case. America. Why? Because America the only country on the face of the planet where the people can choose their own destiny and change the face of their politics. We still have hope of restoring our national identity...until the left shreds the Constitution in total.

I agree with you that at the moment we are fighting on the side of secular humanism in its repose in our governmental institutions. However, written in our founding document is a far different society.

CONGRESS can make no law regarding the establishment of religion nor abridging the free exercise thereof. However, most of the signatory states of the time had religious tests for their leaders. The founders were very concerned about the establishment of a national religion. They were not concerned about a local population (even at the state level) that chose to have religious leaders. Congress has violated this concept by prohibiting this free practice.

I find myself allied on this side of the religion debate because I belong to a truly Christian nation who has the ability to change rather than a country run by Sharia with no hope whatsoever.

Bwahahahahaha! Oh my (wiping tears from the eyes). This is funny stuff, coming from this gang of hoodlums. What a bunch of maroons.

[McGavin999]

What it tells me is either that Bin Laden is dead or these moron have been following an intellectually inferior "leader". I have never seen so much ignorance on display in my life.

[Honcho]

Good call, I actually started writing my post about the same time you posted but I had to walk away from my desk for a few mins.

[Woahhs]

Interesting!

So in a nutshell, this justification pretty much rests on the fact that we support a people Islam wants to eradicate. If you apply that logic consistently, Islam pretty much deserves anything we can inflict on them as we find fascism abhorent in the extreme, and they not only support it, but encourage it.

I'm really looking forward to the day when Islam has become such a burden that western civilization abandons its moral relativity postulate. No culture is more richly deserving of being treated as it treats others than Islam.

Your nation allows immoral acts and you assume that these are part of personal freedom, all whilst you continue to move towards this hell without any concern. Even your policies and rules show no concern for these things. Who can forget your previous President’s immoral acts committed in the Oval office? After that you did not even bother putting him on trial and instead allowed him to wriggle himself out of the situation without reprimanding him in any way. History will remember you for all of this.

Wham!!! And only those voting against Clinton can plead not guilty.

[Salgak]

Mr. Bin Laden. . .

You're correct, only one culture can survive. So get out your rug, pray towards Mecca and your Moon God, and prepare for the annihilation of the Ummah.

As the Highlander put it, "There can be only One. . .".

And you ain't it. . .

"In short, I think a Democrat wrote this.

That is certainly more plausible that Osama bin Laden writing it...

Osama bin Laden doesn't have enough air in his body to fart, much less speak or dictate this screed.
Semper Fi

[PeteePie]

...at least the Nazis could build a decent car (VW) and don a bad-a$$ looking clean uniform. But yes, they too suffered the deserving fate that awaits Binney.

[Billthedrill]

Total garbage, and most definitely not bin Laden. I don't like the guy but it seems mean to tag the murdering SOB with this septic tankful of leftwing cliches. Sucking his lungs out with a daisy cutter was kinder.

Whoever did write this is evidently unaware of, or trying to mask, the fact that bin Laden didn't give a rodent's rump about the Palestinians. His beef was with the presence of U.S. troops on "sacred" Saudi soil, which is itself a bit of a stretch inasmuch as they've never gone anywhere near Mecca or Medina. Well, no matter...he's talkin' trash from hell these days...

[Chaos]

This rant reminds me my of my ex. He can always find things to bitch about.

Even if we were to succumb to all of bin deads mindless bull he would still find something to bitch about and kill us over. They have known nothing else for many many years.

[SirAllen]

Well, one thing is for sure, Bin Laden did not write this, unless he was the ghost writer that is.
