Reuters: Bin Laden Condemns Bush. New Attacks Possible.
"...Bin Laden, making his clearest claim yet of responsibility for the Sept. 11 strikes of 2001, said Bush had failed Americans with his Middle East policies, deceiving the nation and putting it at risk from further al Qaeda strikes...

... gesturing with a finger to stress points, bin Laden said the Sept. 11 attacks would not have been so severe if Bush had been alert. Despite entering the fourth year after Sept. 11, Bush is still deceiving you and hiding the truth from you..."

2. Unfortunately, He Did not Confirm Who Has the Explosives.
Maybe that announcement will come on Monday?

11. I'm just trying to make the point that we should draw that connection
instead of letting the spin machine divert the whole topic to - does UBL help/hurt bush or Kerry?

10. sorry, my point was there were no new attacks specifically mentioned
Edited on Fri Oct-29-04 07:07 PM by maddezmom
in the tape, unless I missed it. And we have been under terror threats everyday from Al Qada and OBL since 9/11. So what has changed with the release of the tape?? Only thing I come up with is that * hasn't caught him and he is still on the run.

6. is this the october surprise?
The Bin Laden tape has given Smirk the opportunity to stand warrior like before a podium this afternoon and peddle his "this is war" line ...

i wonder how many undecideds this "october surprise" will turn for him and how many against him?

From my point of view ... this is indeed an October surprise!

7. If so it's backfiring
as response from Kerry was spontaneous and intelligent whereas Bush looked like deer in headlights.

9. No surprise and not a benefit to B*sh
Not when the tape says, "Even as you enter the fourth year after the Sept. 11 attacks, Bush is still misleading and deluding you and hiding the real reason from you. Consequently, there are still reasons to repeat what happened. I will tell you about the reasons behind these attacks and will tell you the truth about the moments during which the decision was made, for you to contemplate..........He {Bush Sr.} passed on tyranny and oppression to his son, and they called it the PATRIOT act, under the pretext of fighting terror."

http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories/B/BIN_LADEN_TAPE_EXCERPTS?SITE=SCCOL&SECTION=HOME&TEMPLATE=DEFAULT

This is the biggest smackdown ever of the entire B*sh trifecta: Poppy, Junior, AND Jeb.

Read it. Junior is TOAST.

8. It looks like that freak is definitely still alive. Not a priority to Bush

"I don't know where bin Laden is. I have no idea and really don't care. It's not that important. It's not our priority." - G.W. Bush, 3/13/02

14. bin Laden's just a CIA asset following orders.
Imagine that, the devastating truth is finally coming out
(Bush is getting sued in Federal Court by hundreds of WTC
survivors) as to who really was behind 911, (Bush and his New
World Order secret society).

http://www.freedomfiles.org/war/awtc.htm  
http://www.rense.com/general57/aale.htm
http://www.bilderberg.org/skulbone.htm

So Bush coincidentally, 4 days before the election, gets this
early Xmas present, a big OCTOBER SURPRISE, that not only
deflects all the news into a discussion about terrorism,

BUT it also manages to provide a handy "confession"
about who was behind 911 to boot.

Chutzpah I tell you...

15. CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT AGAINST BUSH FOR BEING BEHIND 911.
Oh, here is the link for the lawsuit against Bush, Cheney, Powell, Rice, Rumsfeld; for perpetrating the 911 attacks.

Federal Court in San Francisco.

These people have real evidence on this.

The lawyer doing the lawsuit is a former Bob Dole Chief of Staff.

I hope he has bodyguards.
