Web site: Bin Laden to release Israel message

NEW YORK — Osama bin Laden, who has threatened to extend al-Qaida's terror to Israel, will release a new Internet message dealing with Israelis and Palestinians, a terrorism monitoring group said Thursday.

The announcement of the impending comments by the head of al-Qaida was posted on Web sites often used by Islamic militant groups, the SITE Intelligence Group said.

Bin Laden's statement, "The Causes of Conflict on the 60th Anniversary of the Establishment of the State of Israeli Occupation" and will be addressed to the "Western peoples," SITE said.

Israel has been celebrating the anniversary of its independence, but the occasion has also been mourned by many Palestinians as a reminder of their uprooting.

The Internet message _ expected to appear within 72 hours of the advertisement _ will be bin Laden's second this year and the seventh since the start of 2007, part of an overall increase by al-Qaida in the pace of Internet statements.

In a December, the terror leader offered an unusually direct attack on Israel and stepped up al-Qaida's attempts to use the Israeli-Arab conflict to rally supporters.

"We intend to liberate Palestine, the whole of Palestine from the (Jordan) river to the sea," he said, threatening "blood for blood, destruction for destruction."

Israel has warned of growing al-Qaida activity in Palestinian territory, though terror network is not believed to have taken a strong role there so far.

As tragic and traumatizing 9-11 was for us, it is nothing compared to how tragically destructive this administration has been to our country. Conspiracy theories apart. How come we only hear of Bin Laden at the convenient time for this administration to continue its grip on our fears? How many times are they going to CRY WOLF and how many times are we going to believe them?

The WTC was very handy for Bush and his team to do what they have been doing. Take away freedoms, spy on us, dismantle the constitution, control us by fear. We fell for Iraq and killed so many innocents. America's image around the world sucks. Where is Bin Laden and the ones that actually supposedly hurt us? yet, look who and by how much our top leaders have benefited from the chaotic war torn Middle East? The Saudis and the rich are doing splendid while average Joe's living standard seems third world.

The worst part is; Are we more secure/safer? Do you feel safer now than after the attacks? I don't. If somebody wants to hurt us they will, and I am not talking about foreign terrorists. For some reason I cannot get out of my head that Bin Laden and Bush were good friends/partners and the families still visit /do business with each other. Some say Bin Laden =black sheep of the family but the government had no problems when he was working with them against the Soviets.

BushCo's first Treasury Secretary has stated and written that the need for spying on

US and to invade Iraq was discussed in Cabinet and Security Council meetings as

early as February of 2001, A FULL SIX MONTHS BEFORE 9-11!!! GROK THAT!!!!!!!!!!

"I cannot get out of my head that Bin Laden and Bush were good friends/partners."

NO, of course not. But what IS happening is that the Bush propaganda machine is USING bin Laden to justify their actions. Osama bin Laden isn't doing it. In fact, he wasn't even involved in the planning of the 9/11 attack. He was told about about the plan and gave his blessing. That is all he did.

The real enemy is the Taliban in Afghanistan.

[mistlesuede]

Amazingly transparent coincidence that Shrub makes his stupid political remarks in Israel right before "another Bin Laden message" this time mentioning Israeli issues? Give me a freakin' break.
Just where is OBL? In Dick Cheney's residence using movie studio equipment?
C'mon people. WAKE UP!

Right on cue.

Does this sound familiar? This philosophy sounds like the tactics being employed now.

The phrase was also used in a report prepared during the war by the United States Office of Strategic Services in describing Hitler's psychological profile:[2]

His primary rules were: never allow the public to cool off; never admit a fault or wrong; never concede that there may be some good in your enemy; never leave room for alternatives; never accept blame; concentrate on one enemy at a time and blame him for everything that goes wrong; people will believe a big lie sooner than a little one; and if you repeat it frequently enough people will sooner or later believe it.[3]

Just an interesting side quote with NO correlation to this subject other than Bush attempting to quote history yesterday and oh…umm perhaps the breathlessly awaited Ladle Laden at ‘Em tape:

...the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same way in any country.

From the grave.

[GravitonX]

Why do we have 150,000 troops in Iraq and 15,000 in Afghanistan when we know Osama is somewhere on the Afghan-Pakistani border?!!!

[adavis08]

Where is Bin Laden? Probably in Saudi Arabia making tapes and convieniently sending them out when the NeoCons get in trouble or danger of losing their hold of fear over the people of this country. The release of this tape now after W's comments yesterday is too coincidental to be taken seriously.

[biwee]

The same people who are sending us a new OBL message are the same people who are behind the crimes of 911. If you believe a 100 ton Boeing 757 crashed into the Pentagon, where is the wreckage?? Did those two massive jet engines weighing tons, and fabricated with special metals, just vaporize?? The 911 Commision report is a lie. Just ask Zelikow.

They are also the same people (aka Bush Regime) who had the so-called 'military experts' on cable news pushing for the Iraq War (some 4500 appearances) and giving false information to the American People via cable news ( the accomplice) which Arianna is bravely trying to get the story out. America has been duped for close to 8 years. But thankfully, we're waking up ! Keep in mind folks....when this invasion ends.....a loooooot of people wil stop making big money. (Halliburton,Blackwater,etc.) Not to mention THE OIL !

I simply doubt all these messages all these years are really him. Especially now.
Just too convenient, don't you think?
He's going to post a message that helps bush and israel, just when they need it to support their invasion of iran.

he administration and israel tactics have been smelling bad for years. This smells no different.

[boblemacon]

he's dead no??

[jubo]

Benazir Bhutto told David Frost Omar Cheikh murdered Osama Bin Laden. Many here saw the clip.

[Marlyn]

I’m guessing she meant “Omar Sheikh murdered FOR Osama bin Laden.”

[MenopausalMick]

I just added a Bert and Ernie terror alert status widget to my blog. Bert is "afwayed...vehwah afwayed".

Benazir Bhutto, before her assassination told the BBC that 'ole Bin had been murdered.

Can't wait to see the new Boogeyman Bin tape.

i'm already scared, aren't you?

Get used to it, folks. Think how much fear they're gonna throw at the American people to get us to elect McCain. Gosh, the fear card has worked pretty well for them so far.

America...the land that proudly tortures to stop terrorists who torture to stop governments who torture.

Makes a good campfire song if ya sing it proud.

Proof for me is that the first video tape of Bin Laden depicted a man who looked like Bin but had
this cute tiny nose. Then they realizing we caught on to it, they gave us audio tapes.
Bin Laden supposedly died in 2001 in a Dubai Hospital on kidney failure. Since then the government has used him as the boogeyman to scare us.
We can find a child molester in South East Asia in one day but we cannot find a 7ft Arab with
kidney failure in the Mid-East.

Just in time for the general election.

Bin Laden puts out more stuff than 2Pac!

LOL!

Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny, the tooth fairy and Usama Bin Laden, y'all.

[sparkey]

I'm getting a little tired of seeing Bin Laden trotted out every time Cheney's puppet get into trouble. You'll notice, however, that Cheney is never around when Bin Laden comes out with another message. Maybe it's because too many Americans are too stupid to realise that the whole Bin Laden thing is just scare tactics. It's getting old, Cheney, do something different.

[Tropiholic]

I thought he was "dead". Apparently not.
