Doesn't this look like something Bin Laden would say?

"It will be at a time and a place of our choosing. It will be methodical, it will be precise and it will be overwhelming."

Not, he'd throw in a half dozen references to Allah.

What do you expect the guy to say? "Oh well, I'm sure they were swell guys." ?

Yeah, but we're not over there flying planes into their buildings.

Not at all. It sounds much more like something someone in our military would say. It's very focused yet reserved, and full of resolve. Islamists usually tend to blather on about Islam and Allah and crap like that.

Ditto.

Although of course our president would throw in a few lines about defending the peace.

Ah, I guess Ill finally defend myself.

Yes it was a stupid comment.

When I read it, it just reminded me of a threat that Bin Laden made against the US. That is why I mention it. "Time and place of our choosing....overwhelming."
