I have always found it amusing when ObL seems to 'help' Bush's falling popularity by suddenly makeing a tape that threatens the US that he is coming for them.
I've not believed any tapes of ObL since the one that was shown...gosh, how long ago? Dec 01? Dec 02? He was talking to some Arab, and the voices were pretty garbled, and didn't quite match the lips, and WHY were they speaking English? but it clearly showed him making plans on attacking the US. The problem was, we were informed it happened (iirc) in Dec. of what ever year it was, but in fact, HAD to have been done in Nov. For two reasons, 1) he never mentioned the death of a person (who's name I don't remember right now) which he would have done, and 2) there was no food or drink on the table. An Arab not offer hospitality? laughable. The ONLY time there wouldn't be food and drink layed out is during Ramadan. 4-6 weeks BEFORE it was stated the tape was made and 4-6 weeks BEFORE the death of the person.

Every muslim in the world laughed at that tape.
