Osama is 'well and healthy'

[sabra]

Al-Qaeda chief Osama bin Laden is "healthy and well," the network's number two leader Ayman al-Zawahiri has said in an audio message today (April 3), according to a US group monitoring Islamist websites.

"Sheikh Osama bin Laden is healthy and well by the grace of Allah," Zawahiri said yesterday in the audio released by Al-Qaeda's media arm, As-Sahab, according to a transcript provided by IntelCentre.

"The prejudiced ones always try to spread false information about him being ill, but even if Osama bin Laden doesn't become ill, he must die one day, whereas Allah's religion will remain until Allah inherits the Earth and everything on it," he said.

[glowing]

3. Americans are so stupid.. I could say bawa jubila on a crappy cassette

tape and have the bobble head MSM say, Al Quada just said they are going to start adding sardines to the ice cream.. Oh No.. Code Red, Code RED, CODE RED!!!!

[Rosa Luxemburg]

30. Why hasn't Bush decapitated Osama Bin Ladin - it's 2008 (7 years)

why hasn't bush found this UBL fellow?

[melody]

31. I don't know any American who actually thinks he's alive

Our neighbor was just joking around the other day about how they put a wig on Cheney for the last one.
This neighbor voted for Bush the first time.

[otohara]

2. Well That's Unforntunate

if anyone deserves a really icky terminal disease, I would put him on top of the list.

[onehandle]

4. He's dead and buried. If not, what does that say about Bush? nt

[zonmoy]

5. anybody else figure that the recording was planted by the cia

so that people wont think that he is dead.

[debunkthelies]

9. bogeyman osama

alive and well and living in the Cayman Islands. :rofl: oops I took the red pill

[winter999]

16. Nope.

[magellan]

6. He's dead

Give us reliable evidence to the contrary or STFU.

Oh dear, does that make me prejudiced? :eyes:

[Ordr]

7. Isn't it easier to prove that someone is dead than alive?

[magellan]

13. In this case I'd say neither would be easy to prove

Speaking for myself anyway.

[jimnasium]

35. I've seen stories about people accidentally declared 'dead'

It's a horror maze through every conceivable brand of red tape to 'bring someone back.'

So, in a way, it's easier to prove that you're dead than to prove that you're alive.

:shrug:

[zonmoy]

14. only if you can produce the body,

body cant be found no proof that the person is dead.

[MadHound]

8. Of course he's well and healthy, hell, he's tan and fit too.

All from hiding out at Bebe Rebozzo's old digs in Boca Raton FL. Like they say, once CIA, always CIA.

[AlphaCentauri]

10. Does he has health insurance

he was dying of kidney decease and was on dialysis long ago.

The bin Laden mystery deepened on Jan. 18 when President Pervez Musharraf of Pakistan told CNN that the terrorist leader, who had looked gaunt and haggard in his last video, broadcast on Dec. 26, was probably dead of kidney failure. "I give the highest priority now, to be frank, that he is dead for the reason that he is a patient, he is a kidney patient," General Musharraf said. He buttressed his account by saying that two kidney dialysis machines had been sent into Afghanistan before the war, at least one for bin Laden.

American and British officials quickly tried to rebut the Pakistani president's account. A British Foreign Office official told The Sunday Times on Jan. 20 that there were "strong indications" that bin Laden remained alive and "did not die in a cave from kidney failure." And a senior U.S. intelligence official told Rowan Scarborough of The Washington Times: "I believe it's a ruse. I don't think he's dead."

But the bin Laden kidney story has legs, so to speak. The first published reference to his kidney problems was an intriguing February 1999 article in The Guardian, in London, which quoted a former CIA counterterrorist operations official, Vincent Cannistraro: "The Saudis hired someone among his followers to poison him, probably in November 1998. He suffered kidney failure but recovered, at least partially." A week later, on Feb. 15, 1999, the Saudi-owned newspaper Al Hayat reported that bin Laden was suffering kidney pain.

The kidney story continued to make odd reappearances. Last October, the French daily Le Figaro reported that bin Laden had received secret kidney treatment on July 4, 2001, at an American hospital in Dubai, where he was allegedly visited by a CIA officer. An agency spokesman dismissed that as "complete nonsense." Even bin Laden himself was quoted in a Pakistani newspaper last November saying, "My kidneys are all right."

11. Before her assassination, Benazir Bhutto identified Omar Sheikh as the murderer of Osama bin Laden.

We need only look at *who benefits* in perpetuating the lie that Bin Laden is 'alive and well.'


The answer is, not surprisingly, a four-letter word.

[winter999]

17. I think your 4-letter person would benefit more by having a dead

Osama. "Look ya'll what I did!"

[seafan]

20. No, because the terror propaganda spigot would dry up.

'4-letter' needs continuous puppetry to accompany those frequent and convenient little videos when things get rough for him.


Besides, we weren't too impressed with the Saddam debacle.

[Maine-i-acs]

12. Good thing we can believe everything that Zawahiri says.

He's so honest, that international terrorist, that he would never lie in order to keep an agenda going.

So if he says something that scares us, we should all be very, very afraid.



(Now re-read the above, substituting *ush for Zawahiri ...)

[frog92969]

15. Osama who?

Oh...that guy.

[balantz]

18. Is it "Well and healthy"?

Or "Wealthy in Hell"?

[GoddessOfGuinness]

28. Wealthy as hell...

just like his bushista comrades.

[The Stranger]

19. Right in time for the Fall elections. Has the GOP drafted his statement regarding the election yet?

[YDogg]

21. Ah, the good ol' days!

[High Plains]

29. I always wanted one of those. Still do.

Mountain cave tunnel complexes, I mean.

[acmavm]

22. Oh for shit's sakes. I want to see a recent I.D. and fingerprints

please.

[fshrink]

23. James Bond needs Dr. No.

But Dr. No is irrelevant.

[NoodleyAppendage]

24. Ahhh...here we go with the truncation of Osama Bin Laden to confuse it with Obama.

Nice touch from the PsyOPs people. Yet another way to conflate Osama Bin Laden with Barack Obama to confuse the stupid Americans.

[KansDem]

25. I don't know...it seems when these tapes surface, the CIA could somehow...

...use the intelligence gleaned from such surfacings to locate OBL and tap his lines. But I suppose it's too busy tapping American phone lines to follow-through with any intel regarding OBL.

[tanyev]

26. At last! Corroboration for the story told to a British tabloid

by the Duke of Westminster's hooker!

:crazy:

[GoddessOfGuinness]

27. Yeah. So's Ronald Reagan.

:eyes:

[Frank Cannon]

32. Well and healthy and too cheap to afford video equipment...

available at Walgreen's for less than $50.

I agree that he's probably well and healthy, if by "well and healthy" we mean "dead".

[underpants]

33. That's too bad

but then look at who is in charge of chasing him down.

[Massachusetts]

34. Osama is 'well and healthy' - We know why.....
