Bin Laden Issues New Audio Message

CAIRO, Egypt — Osama bin Laden released a new message on Sunday accusing Arab leaders of sacrificing the Palestinians and calling on Muslim militants in Egypt to help break the blockade of Gaza.

Bin Laden called Arab leaders "agents of the crusaders" and "wolves" in the audio message posted on an Islamic militant Web site where al-Qaida leaders have issued past statements. He portrayed the citizens of Arab nations as herds of sheep who have been handed over to the wolves to look after them.

"Every day, the herd wishes the wolves would stop preying on it," he said.

"Those (Arab) kings and leaders sacrificed Palestine and Al-Aqsa to keep their crowns. ... But we will not be relieved of this responsibility," bin Laden said.

Al-Aqsa mosque in Jerusalem's Old City is one of the holiest sites for Muslims.

Al-Qaida leaders are increasingly using the Israeli-Arab conflict in their media campaign to rally supporters. Israel has warned of growing al-Qaida activity in Palestinian territories, although the terror network is not believed to have taken a strong role there so far.

The new audiotape comes just two days after bin Laden's last audio message was released, marking the 60th anniversary of Israel's foundation. He vowed to continue what he called his struggle against the Jewish state.

Israel and Egypt have closed their borders with Gaza since the Islamic militant group Hamas violently seized control of the Palestinian territory in June of last year.

The closure has deepened economic hardship in the impoverished strip where 1.4 million Palestinians live.

"Each one of us is responsible for the death of our vulnerable people in Gaza where scores have died because of the blockade," bin Laden said.

He urged Muslim militants in Egypt to try to end the closure.

"They are the only ones close to its borders and they must work on breaking this blockade," he said.

The media in this country is control by the Government. This boggie man has been dead for a long time. They keep playing the fear card and I think that card is already old.

[Linglu]

I'm sick to death of the fear crap but you have to admit it works. If it didn't work there wouldn't be a Republican on the planet. Stupid, stupid voters.

[truthbrigade]

They're called Goober Nation; just drive to West Virginia and stop anywhere..­... that's Goober Nation!!

[Uselessboy]

Give the media some credit. Hundreds of billions are spent on them making sure the right pictures are out there and logical debate is locked out.

[smartex]

Why are we deceiving ourselves? Osama Bin Laden has been dead long ago but this CIA con men keep on deceiving us into believing he is there.

If Osama is alive, let us see his video recording instead of the frivolous audio recording they keep on feeding us.

The Bush Administration and Al queda both have something to benefit in this claim of Osama messages. It gives Bush the rational to continue sending our troops to Iraq and Al queda keep pretending to be invincible.

Meanwhile Bush and his business associates keep on racking billions on weapons trade besides the billions from their oil companies which use the middle east conflicts as a veil to escalate gas price.
We are aware of all these and come November, These Republican War mongers and Oil Mogul will vacate the Whitehouse.

If it were to be found that Osama Bin Laden had been dead for quite some time, what would be the reaction? Probably nothing, I doubt the media (at least in this country) would report it. It would raise the specter of war crimes and up the ante of possible prosecution for war crimes.

[HippieChick]

"If it were to be found that Osama Bin Laden had been dead for quite some time, what would be the reaction?"

Only a deluded few still believe that bin Laden lives. To most of us, that Osama is dead would come as no surprise. That's why Georgie hasn't been looking for him...he knows. But the bin Laden name is still a useful tool to support Georgie's intent and purpose in establishing forever his never-ending war.

[Orlando]

So in this time of election they drag their old CIA asset out to play the boogie man again....

They might as well broadcast simulaniously on all of the TV stations, "Attention Americans, you must assemble and prepare, for the mandatory two minutes of hate. "

Who wants to bet that he endorses Obama??

[oogabooga]

President Obama will hunt down Bin Laden and his bunch of religious fanatics. So the dude has about a year to live.

[ToxicCuriosity]

Then they will have a tea together, right?

[AurigaRa]

he's dead already

[SouthFloridaDem]

President Obama will prove that bin Laden's been dead for a long time.

[Unrepentantliberal]

He probably endorse John Sidney McCain III.

[AurigaRa]

no that would be Obama
One more reason for the right to scare America into NOT voting for him

[PAposter]

LMAO! Deep, thoughtful exchange.

[gregjones]

Sidney ?

Bush Admits Bin Laden's Help Ensured Election Win
“I thought it was going to help,” said Bush

Paul Joseph Watson/Prison Planet.com | February 28 2006

According to a soon to be released book written by Bill Sammon, Senior White House Correspondent for the Washington Examiner, Bush attributes his 2004 victory over John Kerry in part to a Osama bin Laden videotape released on the eve of the election.

“I thought it was going to help,” Bush decided. “I thought it would help remind people that if bin Laden doesn’t want Bush to be the president, something must be right with Bush.”

Former CBS anchorman Walter Cronkite went public to call the tape a set up orchestrated by Karl Rove.

Can there again be any doubt whatsoever that White House terror alerts and Al-Qaeda videotapes are 100% artificially manufactured and released at the most politically expedient times?

Last week, the Associated Press thrust a month old bin Laden tape back onto the front pages by reporting it as new. Like a band aid the propaganda has to be re-applied consistently to remind Americans who their enemy is supposed to be. The mob breaks a few windows downtown to make sure you pay your protection money. Read the full story.

[Scarllatti]

You are right on the point.

[TTigerX2]

Oh yeah...Bus­h is at lowest point in poles... McCain is bewildered­.... so the neocon puppet masters who engineered 9/11 roll out another Bin Laden tape to get the excited states of America on red alert just before tourist season... seen this before.

[Scarllatti]

JOHN McCAIN IS THE TROJAN HORSE WITH WHICH THE REPUBLICANS WANT TO SELL THE AVERAGE UNSUSPECTING VOTER THEIR POISONED POLICIES.

[fungeezer]

Or, he is the sacrificial lamb who will have a hand-picked VP on the ticket with him ready to take over.
Someone like Jeb Bush.

[Linglu]

Oh my gosh, that is truly the scariest think I have ever heard.

[OfficialA]

A Bush on the ticket? I doubt it. Not even McCain is that crazy.

[eddietru]

the Harry Houdini of the Islamic terror world and eternal straw man for American and Israeli demagogues yet again calls for the destruction of Western civilisation. I know, you're shocked.

What really is shocking, however, is the unbelievable mendacity and wilfulness of the mainstream press in furthering this most vile and dangerous of myths that "Islamic terror" threatens Western countries and their populations. As with every previous such tape, we are told that the "authenticity could not be verified" but that unnamed "U.S. intelligence officials believe it to be from Bin Laden"

[MagisterLudi]

certainly, eddie, most of Islamic extremists that kill people by the cartoload all over the world from Philippines to Russia are all men of peace.... they're only interested in gathering flowers at dawn and reading Rumi to each other.... right....

You are dead wrong on connection between media and Islamic terrorists.
The Islamicist CRAVE Western media's attention. And get it. This is the price of Western liberalism. The Islamic terrorists commit many terrorist acts to ATTRACT Western media attention who unwittingly helps these Islamicist to spread their laughably primitive ideology.

Many crackpots, large and small ( Hitler, Stalin to Osama) thought this was Western weakness: the relative freedom of press.. It is actually it's strength.
Open ended system has a better chance of survival than the induced pathetic version of caliphate that Osama is selling.

[Linglu]

MagisterLudi
I am sick to death of hearing about the liberal media. They are as far from liberal as they can get. They are right up the Republican's @$$ and they lie just like Bush and his buddies.

[wedgie]

Has the President heard about this guy?

[fungeezer]

Interesting. Especially since Benazir Bhutto said that Bin Laden was dead, and named the person who killed him, just a few weeks before she was assassinated. Here's a link to what she said:

[Biracial1]

Funny how just after Bush's Iniquitous statement last week, Bin Laden has resurfaced yet once again.
Didn't Benazir Bhutto say that he was dead? I guess next week they will raise the terror alert level. Let's see if the fear card will work as it seems the race card and gender cards are questionable.

[LadyAva]

Didn't Benazir Bhutto say Bin Laden was dead, that he'd been murdered?
