Him in a video is like Tupac releasing new albums.

Anyway, stop living in fear. AQ has been releasing these videos every several months _FOR OVER FIVE YEARS NOW_. It's time to take to heart Aesop's fable about crying wolf.

Terrorism has killed less people in the US in the last half decade, including 911, than probably people who had obstructed bowels and couldn't make it to the doctor in time.

One should not live in fear because of the threat of violent terrorism; however, one should not live in denial either.

Sure we can, take it right up the proverbial ass, by some highly trained nutjobs piloting 747's. Yeah, we can take it, lose a few thousand lives, then go retaliate in the dark, with orders improvised by a mad man, who gives you wool curtains for your eyes. Yep, that's the ticket. :roll:

BTW, OBL is still dead.

They are going to have a very hard time trying to pull another 9/11, in fact, they won't even try.

So you can change your diapers now.

He's right. Bin Ladin is just one of millions of bearded turban wearers that need to be exterminated. :thumbsup: In the scheme of things, he's not that important.

You have got to be the most ignorant, inbred, hillbilly, white-pointy-hood wearing person on the face of this Earth. Spewing venomous idiotic crap like this makes you no better than Osama.

Denial is more realistic, actually. The greatest cost of terrorism has been the measures taken after 911 both in lives lost by the the US and those in the middle east and money spent. It has been like burning down the house to get rid of a cockroach.

I'm not one of the types that spams conspiracy theory, but that fat OBL video is unintentionally hilarious.

Google 'fat osama' to see what I'm talking about.

Rather than some complicated CIA/Skull & Bones conspiracy, maybe AQ actually had a double for OBL. I just can't believe they chose so poorly. The fat osama speaks differently, has a totally different nose, laughs, is loose and makes lots of eccentric movements, etc. Totally different from all other OBL videos.

After all that has happened after 911, we (as well as the rest of the world) can now deduce that the US government does not like cockroaches.

I think the fat osama is an import from Somalia. He looks Somali to me.
