Bin Ladin "Amazed" at US Defiance

Great piece on his October 29th video threat. We were all so busy examining the political ramifications at the time, we hardly noticed what he as actually saying.

Turns out he's in disbelief that we won't roll over and appease him. I think we need to provide him with more such disbelief:

   ''This is the message which I sought to communicate to you in word and deed, repeatedly, for years before September 11th,'' the fugitive al-Qaida leader said in a videotape aired around the world Oct. 29. ''But I am amazed at you. Even though we are in the fourth year after the events of September 11th . . . the reasons are still there for a repeat of what occurred.''

   Eight years after issuing a written declaration of war against the United States, the theme of bin Laden's speech was disbelief that he had failed to make his point with the American people, even after the deaths of nearly 3,000 people on U.S. soil and a succession of bombings [and other terrorist acts.]

Bin Laden's big problem with us was troops in Saudi Arabia. Our troops are no longer in Saudi Arabia. Now they're in Iraq. Who knew that wasn't an allowable response to his requests? I think we gave him everything he asked for. :-)

The article itself sounds like an apologist's analysis. Let's continue to amaze the old goat.

HellOOhh, people... I swear, trying to make a point with you infidels is like, well, it's like talking to a friggin' brick wall, fer crissakes. I mean, is it just me, or are you kuffrs just slow on the uptake? Good gravy, I mean, it's not like we're doing the martyrdom operations for our health, people. Read the fargin' MEMOS, people!

Okay, since we apparently have some kind of failure to communicate here, let's go over it one more time:

(a) We blow up the buildings, jews, etc.

(2) You guys say you're sorry, and then give us back Andalusia and so forth.

I mean, is that so freaking hard to understand? I'm trying to make it simple for y'all. Repeat: we attack, you do what I say. Notice, I didn't say anything in there about invading Afghanistan, or Iraq, or blowing up my caves. Cripes, unless you people get your shit together, you're just making it hard on all of us. Well, us anyway.

PS - Does anybody know any good dialysis clinics in Pakistan?

The Japanese already told Bin Laden how badly he screwed up.

If any one country on this planet is in a position to educate others on what happens when you piss off the Americans, it's Japan.

"I fear we have awakened a sleeping giant, and filled him with a terrible resolve" -- General Yamamoto, 12/7/1941 (I think)

Thanks for posting this. I continue to be both amused and amazed at the hubris Osama continues to display.

"It would be absolutely, totally, and in all other ways INCONCEIVABLE that the Americans will not give in to our demands."

Bin "Vizzini" Laden to Mullah "Montoya" Omar, describing 9-11 plan.

This is what Bin Laden said about the US during Clinton’s neglect of his presidential duties:

“We think that the United States is very much weaker than Russia. Based on the reports we received from our brothers who participated in jihad in Somalia, we learned that they saw the weakness, frailty, and cowardice of US troops. Only 80 US troops were killed. Nonetheless, they fled in the heart of darkness, frustrated, after they had caused great commotion about the new world order”.

Bin Laden’s belief that we were cowards caused 3000 people to die in New York.

He should have known that Republicans are not like Democrats.

Our answer should be: Yeah, Osama; sometimes we even amaze ourselves...

"....This talk of mine is for you and concerns the ideal way to prevent another Manhattan..."

Huh.

He wants to prevent another Manhattan. But why? Manhattan is AWESOME.
Manhattan is a global economic hub and THE meetingplace of the citizens of the world.

Wouldn't *another* Manhattan be twice as cool? Maybe one in...oh, I don't know...Kabul...or...Baghdad? You know, where it is DESPERATELY NEEDED?

*sigh* Maybe I am just not nuanced enough to understand this guy.

As an Islamo-fascist, he makes his point by mass-murdering unarmed non-combatants.

But in the civilized world, making a point is not the same as dictating terms. It's give-and-take. You make your point, then we'll make ours.

We have wrecked his organization, captured or killed most of its leadership, driven the remnants underground, toppled the government that gave them safe haven, and continued on the offensive against every ally and accomplice they've ever had. We are transforming the Islamic World into a place where people like him cower in caves, if they survive at all.

Don't interrupt, Osama. We're making a point here.

Nice going, freeradical. Petty, adolescent, off-topic, stale, and probably untrue. So nice to have you on the other side.

ANOTHER LEFT WING ASSASSIN ATTEMPTS TO KILL TRUMP
If I understand this, the left-wing Democrat assassin attempted to get into the White House Correspondents Association dinner, and was stopped at the magnetometers, which detected his gun. I guess he pulled out the gun and was shot by Secret Service agents.

Important Message from Recent Convert to Christianity and Yet Super-Serious Christian Tuq'r Qarlson: Actually Muslims love Jesus, it's Trump and his neocons who hate him
Tucker Carlson Network
@TCNetwork

The people in charge [Jews, of course -- ace] don't want you to know this, but Muslims love Jesus.

Islam reveres Him as a major prophet and messenger of the Lord, believes He performed miracles, and states that He will return to Earth to defeat the Antichrist. That's why Donald Trump's painting depicting himself as the Son of God offended the president of Iran. It was an attack on his religion as well as Christianity.

Trump's trolling tweet was ill-advised, but Tucker is just lying when he claims the Christianity-hating President of Iran was "offended" by this.
He's one step away from announcing his official conversion to Islam. He literally never stops praising Islam. Well, he suddenly became Christian two years ago, there's not much stopping him from converting again.
You can track Tuq'r's official conversion to Islam with this Bingo card.

Podcast: CBD and Sefton talk Orban losing, but is it the end of Hungary? The Irish start a brawl, but is it enough, Pope Leo wades into politics, Trump calls Iran's bluff and blockades Hormuz, Artemis II! Swallwell is scum, and more!
People say that the bearded man in the video of Fartwell molesting a hooker looks like Democrat Arizona Senator Rueben Gallego, said to be Swalwell's "best friend" and known to take vacations with him.
@KFILE 21m

Politico is reporting that multiple people have abruptly resigned from Eric Swalwell's gubernatorial campaign: "Members of senior leadership have departed the campaign, including Courtni Pugh, a strategic adviser who served as Swalwell's top liaison to organized labor groups."

So the campaign is collapsing due to the truth of the sexual harassment allegations.
That hissing sound you hear is the air going out of the Swalwell campaign. UPDATE: No it wasn't, it was just Swalwell one-cheek-sneaking out a fart on camera
Eric Swalwell more like Eric Farewell amirite

Oil prices plunge on bizarre realization that Eric Swalwell may actually be straight. A rapey molester, allegedly, but a straight one.
Classic Rock Mystery Click
This is super-obscure and I only barely remember it. Given that, I'll give you the hint that it's by the Red Rocker.
And I guess you think you've got it made
Oh, but then, you never were afraid
Of anything that you've left behind
Oh, but it's alright with me now
'Cause I'll get back up somehow
And with a little luck, yes, I'm bound to win

Now twenty people will tell me it's not obscure, it was huge in their hometown and played at their prom. That's how it usually goes. When I linked Donnie Iris's "Love is Like a Rock," everyone said they knew that one and that his other song (which I didn't know at all) Ah Leah! was huge in their area.
