New Bin Laden Video

lol. you are sensible. it's like someone told you dont open the door there is a gator and you would only know it was a puppy. smiles, apple. you must have seen so much in life by now.

The video itself has a lot of doubts floating around it. One is the color of the beard. Another is possible dubbing over an existing tape. Third is a continuity error, much like my first point. Isn't he supposedly on his last legs? Now he's showing up healthier than before... whatever. Fourth is the freezing of the tape at certain sections while the speech is going on. The speech itself is a bit suspicious too, at least to me.

I know what you are saying but you know what it is like they just want money For the last 2 months they have been showing the Accident of Princess Diana and I have watched most and it amazing what some of the Media was claiming about her well I guess she is not here to defend herself and it makes them Money It upsets me that People can be like this As for Bin Laden well I do not know why People don't just leave till they have something positive

I think it has more to do with simple PROPAGANDA.As long as they can keep the people of the U.S.A. divided about the fight in Iraq. And spreading out the troops in various parts of the world .It makes us vulnerable. That is what Terror is all about. I watched a program the other night on P.B.S...I forget if it was either FRONTLINE or WIDE ANGLE But, did you know that we have troops stationed in 88 different locals around the world? I know that this isn't common knowledge because the general media never reports such actions. Can you imagine the various improvements we could be making at home if we didn't have to spend so much money on defending our nation. This is the grand plan of the Terrorist. Keep us weak ..Keep us spending money.They don't have to blow up something to keep us on the defensive.Just spread a little PROPAGANDA and watch us scramble. Think about it, What does it cost the Terrorists to make a five minute video Compared to what it costs us to deploy troops. Just my opinion but I say NUKE the BAST*RD's.

I tend to think is propaganda from all sides and honestly I'm not sure who benefits the most buy it. If you break it down, the radical islamists gain by posturing and standing up to the great big evil American power. On the other hand the Republicans the current administration gains by this video, because face it everytime the Republicans trot out something we should be afraid of, people vote for them thinking it will protect us. (This is my own political party and it sickens me) I'm not a conspiracy theorist, but I do like to play "follow the money" and "see who benefits the most." Not too long ago Bin Ladin released a tape saying that our housing mortgages were leaving us in trouble. I wonder if this isn't some kind of reverse psyhcology. On a similar note, Castro recently stated that Obama and Clinton is an unbeatedable ticket. That puzzles me a bit and again I wonder about reverse psycology. The bottom line for me however, is that if Bin Ladin was going to do something so terrible, he would be doing it, not posturing to the world. It does seem to benefit both him and the current American adminstration though. Keeping a Bush-like presidency in power only strengthens Bin Landin's recruiting power; likewise the Republican's gain by using fear to stay in power. I find it a little odd that with our resources and military that bin ladin has not been captured or killed... which makes me think that someone close to home benefits by having a boogey-man out there to scare us.

Yes I think its just some false attempt to create a false threat. i believe that the other members are trying to get the profit from this false announcement and I do believe that most of us think he is no more alive.
