#1 "The strongest language in the new tape may have been bin Laden's call for an economic boycott of the United States"

Good grief, that's his best shot?????????? Whadda Maroon!!! Exactly who does he think is going to participate in this boycott?? The Saudis who he put out a contract on??????

"... is about winning the hearts and minds of moderate Islam,"

Umm, correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't he include a contract on "moderate" Muslims, too?
Seems like a strange way to win hearts and minds.

#2 Binnie may finally have jumped the shark with this speech. What a fruitloop. Even the less-than-moderate muslims know who's doing what in Darfur. Plus the "kill the whole world - including sane muslims" ranting.

Might lose him a few fans with the "conspiracy" crap starting to sound like the crap it is. I don't think even the fundos have the energy for another round of cartoon riots.

#3 but some analysts sensed much less passion than usual in the 17th message heard from bin Laden since 9/11

That usually happens when you've been dead for 4 years.

#6 I'm not convinced - as someone whom fought wid Osama against the Soviets in Afghanistan, for me it is more likely he is anticipating America taking mil action againt IRAN soon, and is dividing his org so that Zawi can focus on launching new 9-11's against America. IRAN has always been the ultimate focii/center of Osama's visionquest as per his brand of Radicalism, his Apocalypse - I believe Osama as Mahdi/Imam Incarnate is getting himself ready to fight his "final battle" against America in Iran. IFF IRAN FALLS TO THE INFIDEL, OSAMA WILL INTERPRETE IT AS A SIGN FROM GOD AS TO THE CORRECTNESS OR DEFECT OF HIS BELIEFS. IFF IRAN FALLS, THE DREAM OF IRAN-CENTRIC REGIONAL AND GLOBAL CALIPHATE WILL DIE THEN AND THERE, AS OSAMA HIMSELF WILL KNOW HE IS NOT THE ONE GOD INTENDED. In my own weird way, I wish my old friend well - however bad or whatever evil he is doing, Osama per se is a true believer in his God and his cause.
