#1 Broadcast it? How do we know they didn't make it?

#2 I understand deader-than-disco Dr. Z is in the video, so it appears to be *ahem* dated at best. Is there any doubt when OBL is finally confirmed dead that CNN will we do a martyr's retrospective on this valiant freedom fighter to enthralled the Muslim world?

#3 More likely it's a go signal. Keep yer eyes peeled, authorities, and keep an extra eye on Cousin Mahmoud.

#5 He's been maggot food for 5 years now. Anyone who thinks he is alive is either someone who worships his ideology or someone like CNN and the NYTs who use him to mock Bush. Its all about Bush.

#6 We have been scouring the earth for OBL. Not much has emerged lately. Maybe he is dead. He is or was an evil man--the prince of darkness.

In a culture that believes in giant badgers and cell phones that infect the user with a virus, it is no wonder that many have hooked their star to this evil man so destructive of mankind. AQ seems to still be using him as a motivational speaker.

#7 "He's dead, Jim"

#8 I won't believe he's dead until I see his head on a platter.(or pieces of it verified by DNA) Using old footage would conceal any modifications such as rhinoplasty. Another old video expressed Binny's personal desire to die as a martyr "in the belly of the Great Eagle" and he may have personally visited the US long ago to bring his child for medical treatment. He has also said he likes the desert SW. Private Saudi jets come and go in places like those serving Mayo for medical treatment; former King Hussein of Jordan had a private wing and entire hotel floors for his large entourage in Rochester, MN. You can bet they don't wait in line at customs at the airport like the peons going on vacation. The restaurant menus and TV also had Arabic translations. There are also Arizona and Florida affiliated clinics and medical visas for our "good friends" escape close scrutiny. "Those that cure you will kill you" and other verbal cryptic clues should all be re-examined, as we have had more than three warnings recently. Also, Binny used to love riding horses, the Saudis even fly their prized racehorses around the world, and it would be ever so easy to cross into Montana or North Dakota while everyone else is focused on Pakistan or the Mexican border. Denial will not make this virulence go away, probably for thousands of years anyway, and it is a deadly failure not to take this seriously.

#9 There used to be a number of Osama bin Laden body doubles (I think one of them ended up sadder but wiser in London). I do not understand why the Al Qaeda leadership doesn't just film one of them lip synching to some old audio tapes, holding up a current newspaper. Easy peasy with the professional videography staff they supposedly have hanging around.

#10 My money is now on bin Laden sleeping with the worms.

#11 “This glorious pedophile for prophet who was inspired by the pagan moon Godess summarised this entire life by these words. He wished upon himself this criminal cult status. Unhappy is one who was chosen by God Satan as a martyr,” bin Laden said, according to the CNN translation of his remarks.

#12 I don't know about bin Laden but it sure looks like Zawahiri is the one who has been running the show for quite some time.

#13 My belief is he died in Tora Bora. Recollect the reports about the radio intercepts of his followers crying on open mike?

#15 It precisely becuz both legitimate and illegitimate = criminal World organizations make extensive use of "body doubles" + other tricky, deceptive methods is why Osama's corpse is important. Osama and Zawi, etal. go back to long before Osama was adopted by his Saudi family. Without Osama's proven corpse, it is fallacious and dangerous to presume Osama is dead ergo is done wid both Radical Islamism, Terror, and the anti-US /Western agenda.

#16 "Happy is one who was chosen by God as a martyr."

And happier is the one who has the privelege of removing the swill known as Osama bin Laden from the face of the earth, and gets to put Binny's head on display in the freak show at the local circus...
