#1 Clearly he gets sat TV. BBC, MSMBC, CBS, and ABC are all referenced in his hodgepodge rant.

In my time, a student turning in drivel like this would have gotten an F for plagerism..

I also love the production value; old toothless man (who would get coins dropped in his cup in my town) squatting next to some non-descript rocks with a rusty rifle posed behind him (to show he's serious), wagging his finger at us...

I always feel better when I hear from "#2" or even better yet "#1"... They make me laugh.

#2 The fact that (President) Bush, (Secretary of State Condoleezza) Rice and (Defense Secretary Donald H.) Rumsfeld are hiding is that there is no exit from Iraq except in immediate withdrawal. Any delay in taking that decision means nothing but more dead, more losses. If you don't leave today, certainly you will leave tomorrow, but after tens of thousands of dead and double the number of disabled and wounded.

Since those dead and wounded numbers apply to Jihadists I can live with it.

The same propaganda and lies that they circulated about Vietnam are being repeated today in Iraq. They told you that they would give the Vietnamese control over their own affairs and that they were defending freedom in Vietnam.

Looks like we found the source of the Rathergate memo. At least its clear he's reading the liberal talking points.

Huh? They make public appearances just about every day.

#4 Speaking of hiding, anybody know if Groundhog Man saw his shadow when he crawled out of his cave to spout this shit? Could be a brutal winter in Waziristan...

#5 Our message is clear, obvious and decisive: There is no escape for you unless you ...

I just found where this guy is taking his cues from :

#6 actually, memri.org says this is what he says:

"Oh Americans, what you have seen in New York and Washington, and the casualties you witness in Afghanistan and in Iraq, despite all the media blackout, are nothing but the casualties of the initial clashes. If you continue the same policy of aggression against the Muslims, you will see, Allah willing, horrors that will make you forget what you saw in Afghanistan... I mean, in Vietnam.
