"#2" al-Zawahri to Chimp:"Can't you be honest at least once in your life?"
http://www.comcast.net/news/index.jsp?cat=GENERAL&fn=/2006/09/29/488350.html&cvqh=itn_alqaida

Al-Qaida No. 2 Ayman al-Zawahri called President Bush a failure and a liar in the war on terror in a video statement released Friday, and he compared Pope Benedict XVI to the 11th century pontiff who launched the First Crusade.

"Can't you be honest at least once in your life, and admit that you are a deceitful liar who intentionally deceived your nation when you drove them to war in Iraq?" Osama bin Laden's deputy said, appearing in front of a standing lamp and a small, decorative cannon.


Al-Zawahri also criticized Bush for continuing to imprison al-Qaida leaders in prisons, including al-Qaida No. 3 Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the alleged Sept. 11 mastermind who was captured in Pakistan in March 2003.

"Bush, you deceitful charlatan, 3 1/2 years have passed since your capture of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, so how have you found us during this time? Losing and surrendering? Or are we launching attacks with God's help and becoming martyrs?" he said.

1. Wait a minute.
Haven't we captured and/or killed al-Quaida's #2 man and/or al-Zawahri three or four times already?

:shrug:

2. Yeah- but Al Qaeda's organized like a Pez dispensor, don't you know?
You pop the top one off, and a new one pops right into the #1 spot! Like magic! Every time you take one out, it's the "top-most piece of Pez"!

4. al-Zawahiri is the 'Cheney' of al-Quada
Edited on Sat Sep-30-06 01:44 AM by htuttle
I don't think our current leadership possesses the insight OR integrity to catch him. Way too profit motiviated, and way too vain (and thus, easily scammed).

They have 20 or 30 Vice Presidents running around.

8. Well, this is the "real" VP but even so...
Thinking of Al Qaeda as having 20 or 30 VP's is actually an extremely good way to view the structure of Al Qaeda as a global whole. That's why warfare against it is not easy, neat, or tidy.
