Didn't UBL come out with a warning just prior to 9/11?
Should I run out and buy a 1000 round brick for my '15?

Since this is directed AT us, I doubt it will contain anything of real value. Kinda like the bantering of a villian just before he tries to do the hero. "Ah-HAAA!! I've got you!! ...blah blah blah...."

Intercepted comunica (?) would hold much more useful information. ... now.. if it get's used. :P

I like OBL, he's my hommie... Hold thy friends close. Hold thy enemy closer. ... Similar in vein to: Know thy enemy.

i'm considering starting to goto filesharing networks to actually HEAR what this guy has to say, since the western world's PR industrys are so vermont on making sure i DON'T hear it.

it's all just so... tantilising :D

on SBS world news i heard a few seconds of it, the guy seems pretty intouch with what's goin on.

frankly, i think if the powermongers decided that americans should be ALLOWED* to view Osama Bin Laden's tapes (*seems stupid doesn't it), that it would probabaly decrease anti-america hate.

Apparantly the initial translations left out a little detail: bin Ladden will punish Bush voters and spare Kerry voters based on state by state election returns

When is that damn "Big One" gonna hit? It's taking too long.

Some say a comet will fall from the sky
followed by meteor showers and tidal waves
followed by faultlines that cannot sit still
followed by millions of dumbfounded dipshits.

Lets see now. AQ has been threatening more reprisals against us ever since 9/11. Now UBL is trying to threaten us on the eve of our election. I wonder if he's ever heard the old expression,"Put up or shut up"?

Why not? Would just give us more reason to blow the ★■◆● out of that region of the world. Eventually we'll catch up to him one crater at a time.

I'm not racist, Ingus, get your a** back here. It's just a funny term that I've heard used for terrorists.

Usama speaks, should we listen? Hell no.

Although the election is over as of this writing, my advice to voters is to ignore Bin Laden and vote the same way you were already planning to vote. UBL is unworthy of our fear or loathing. What he is worthy of is our attention in the form of bringing him to justice for his crimes, one way or the other.

Thorne, you may not consider it a racial slur but others do. Please do not use that word again, I'm pretty sure Lothar doesn't consider using that phrase acceptable either.

Thanks!

All right, I apologize. It was bad judgement on my part.

I'm sorry, Ingus, I didn't mean anything by it. I guess I've just heard it so much in comedy (Chris Tucker - Rush Hour, for one) that I wasn't really thinking about it.

I'd tell you Woodchip, but I think it's frowned upon to reveal the mighty Ingus' real identity.

Ingus is black. Searg. Thorne used the N word.

This thread is done. Racial slurs, even joking, won't be tolerated here. that's that ;)
