Osama Slams Democrats, Bemoans Global Warming and Subprime Crisis
Edited on Fri Sep-07-07 03:56 PM by Cheney Killed Bambi
I find Osama's speech to be nothing short of bizarre. ABC News now has a transcript. Excerpts:

"People of America: the world is following your news in regards to your invasion of Iraq, for people have recently come to know that, after several years of tragedies of this war, the vast majority of you want it stopped. Thus, you elected the Democratic Party for this purpose, but the Democrats haven't made a move worth mentioning. On the contrary, they continue to agree to the spending of tens of billions to continue the killing and war there."

<snip>

He also speaks to recent issues grabbing headlines in the United States, referring to "the reeling of many of you under the burden of interest-related debts, insane taxes and real estate mortgages; global warming and its woes..."


http://blogs.abcnews.com/politicalradar/2007/09/new-obl-tape-ir.html

Bizarre. Just bizarre.

UPDATE: -- And he's in favor of a flat tax!!!!

"To conclude," bin Laden says, "I invite you to embrace Islam." He goes on to say: "There are no taxes in Islam, but rather there is a limited Zakaat totaling 2.5 percent."


Will Grover Norquist endorse the Osama tax plan?

1. Oddly hilarious.
As if he has any right to comment at all on how America is run.

7. Come on! A lot of his wealth is tied up in our economy. He has
a legitimate interest in seeing the Republicans regain power. After all, if Democrats had been in power over the last six or seven years he'd be dead now. So, give him a break, he just wants to see his best interests served in this country - and that is with Republicans firmly in power...

26. I think he's decided to enter the race as an independent.
Top ten reasons I think OBL has decided to run for President.
10. He's got a lock on the fanatical Muslim vote.
9. He's got name recognition.
8. His family cut him off. He needs a job.
7. He looks much younger with his beard dyed.
6. It's his last chance to be the anti-Bush candidate.
5. He enjoys being on tape.
4. He knows conservatives respond to the terrorist.
3. God is running out of virgins.
2. Why wait for death? The President can get a blow job in office.
1. Condi's boots.

28. What are you talking about? I just learned OBL is against the war in Iraq!
And that therefore, the Democrats in congress are "fighting terror" by IGNORING THE WILL OF THE MAJORITY on the issue. I feel so much better now! Don't you know that doing the opposite of whatever this bearded man in a cave says is more sound policy than listening to the collective will of the people???

3. he's obviously gloating
He doesn't really need to perpetrate another act of terrorism
on US soil because Bushinc is destroying this country by
itself... and possibly the world.

16. This sounds like a GOP hack trying to sound like an Islamic terrorist
Edited on Fri Sep-07-07 03:52 PM by karynnj
trying to sound like a Green party supporter - and failing in both jumps. (no disrespect intented to real Greenies.)

He does end getting close to GOP values though - recomendding an Islamic state as there are NO TAXES, other than a 2.5% Zakaat!

22. An glaring indicator this is work of fiction
Since when would a known terrorist (presumed dead) get involved with the internal affairs of another country's politics? This is absurd, but all these aholes on the Chicken Noodle News (CNN) or FOX swallow this as if this is authentic. Pleeeease!

OBL- or whomever is posing as him, and if you truly are reading these boards and following the news, then welcome to your own Islamic reformation- how is that going for you? Sit down and shut up. We know you are a figment of your own imagination, now go away.

23. Why is the transcript a scanned copy?
I know it wasn't handwritten or typed. Is that supposed to look scarier?

Even if ABC got it that way, the document could have been converted to text in about 10 seconds with standard OCR software.

30. Usama is dead & this guy is an actor?
Does it matter? If Usama/Osama is dead, his possible demise has not stopped the al Q Enterprise. Al Q is good for Western & ME Business. It is now a prosperous franchise that benefits all associated businesses.

33. Jesus Christ! The Bushies wrote his whole fucking speech
And agin, Bin Laden, in what is sure am sure is purely coincidence, sounds like a DUer (just how the Bushies wrote it to sound), except when he talks about taxes.

You could just see it, catcha'? Bunch of Bushie PsyOps Boys writing the script for the New Bushie Bin Laden Double, but when they start wriitng about taxes, they can;t help but be the Bushie traitors they are.

I would like to see a transcript of the whole speech, just to get an idea of what words the Bushies are writing for Osama Bin Bushie Double.

Oh, and you can make bank that, whether or not the Bushies feel the need to make and release the next Bin Laden tape to help them out, there will be another October Surprise which may or may not include a new Bush-Bin Laden Tape.

Yeah that speech is bizarre, but only because it was a bunch of Bushies trying to sound like Osama trying to sound like a Liberal Democrat.

Gotta figure there would be some bizarre in anything written like that trying to mix three disparate philopsophies.

Well, not BushPutinism and al-Qaeda. THEY share LOTS of beliefs: hatred of Liberals and Jews, secularism and intellectuals, free elections and sexy TV...

35. Well in this you are correct
Well, not BushPutinism and al-Qaeda. THEY share LOTS of beliefs: hatred of Liberals and Jews, secularism and intellectuals, free elections and sexy TV...

But for the wrong reasons

If you study the history of the movement that led to AQ yes, they hate securalism, liberalism and Jews, as well as Intellectuals. Their criticism, on the surface, looks very similar to that of the radical right in the US

The movement that led to AQ started in the 1950s in Egypt, and Al Zahari brought a lot of this to Afthanistan and AQ

That said, what has my cackles is... com'on, UBL will be that involved in US Politics?

You'd think he'd have other fish to fry...

37. Yeah, but the Royal Bushies are the ones who pay the bills, the ones who commisioned these vids
Besides, take a look at the thread entitled "The Progression of Bin Laden". It's not even him on the tape.

It's a Loyal Bushie written to sound like Osama trying to sound like a Liberal Democrat.

And if it is indeed him (unlikely) and always has been on these tapes, then the reality of the situations is that Osama BinBushLaden already entered US politics, on Oct. 29, 2004, the day he released that Bush-BinLaden campaign October Surprise Video.

So apparently, if indeed that actually is him on any of the tapes, that Osama has no bigger fish to fry than making sure Bushies continue looting and destroying America.

40. Well let me play devil's advocate
Been studying the Muslim Brotherhood for that little pesky, know thy enemy...

Anyhow, much of what he said in that tape (except the US Politics and global Warming) are part and parcel of the
Arab Brotherhood philosophy. And yes on the surface they can and do sound like oh... bad marxists, but they drank in many ways (Katib did at least, and he is the founder) from almost the same source as the Neocons... and their hate for secularism is deep.

Now as to UBL, going for the died beard is part and parcel of the muslim preparation for war. It is permitted, in fact encouraged during holy wars... guess what this one is.

But the truth is, instead of going around and screaming, this is a psy ops... here is your answer

Ok. THAT IS UBL on tape and HE'S STILL FREE TO TRANSMIT TO THE US?

Weren't we supposed to catch this guy?

Don't question the legitimacy (at least not in front of your friendly twenty percenter)... point out that he was supposed to be brought to justice dead (preferably) or alive.

Hell, today during my usual sundry things I had to go do I actually had one of these idiots, who knows I am a liberal, tell me

See, UBL is again threatening the country

Calmly I retortedd... you are right, wasn't Bush supposed to catch him? Why is he still around putting tapes around the WWW?

Lets just say the local starbucks grew quiet and he left, not to comfortable

And this is how you turn this tape around

So this is what you do. You don't go scream to the four winds, look this is fake. You go scream to the four winds, what the fuck is this guy still doing sending love letters to the US Media? Oh and why the hell is the WH releasing this on 9.11? And they claim they don't play politics with war.

Satire and ridicule is YOUR friend.


If this is propaganda and psy ops this is exactly how you deflate it...

And at that point it does not matter if this is a fatter, well fed UBL who died his beard and seems to pay way, and I mean WAAAAY too much attention to our internal politics. (Though granted that is a great move from a strategic point of view triyng to defeat the will to fight of your enemy), or a CIA stand in...
