Supposed Bin Laden offers truce

[PARAGON]

quoted from Osama Bin Laden:

I propose a long-term truce with the U.S. military. God has prevented us from lying and betraying. You can give us this truce so we can build Iraq and Afghanistan that you have destroyed.

This will prevent the loss of millions of dollars, billions of dollars that go to corrupt businessmen in the United States.

Our situation is getting better and better and your situation is getting worse and worse.

But I wanted to talk to you because of the lies that have been given to you by your President Bush when he commented on the results of the opinion polls in your country that showed the majority was for the pull out of U.S. forces in Iraq.

You [Bush] opposed this opinion by saying a pull out of U.S. forces would send the wrong message and that it is better to fight them in their land than they fight us in our land.

I have an answer for this. I'm saying that the war in Iraq is lit up like crazy and the operations are estimated in our favor in Afghanistan and the number of dead and injured on your side is greater and greater, in addition to material losses.

The result of the opinion polls are wise and Bush must follow it. Iraq has now become a point of attraction to all qualified people the mujahadeen who by the grace of God were able to infiltrate all the security measures that were taken by Coalition forces. And as proof to that: The bombings that you saw in many important capitals of the world.

The reason why we didn't have any such an operation in the United States is not because of security difficulties; the operation will take place and you will see such operations by the grace of God and by the will of God.

So you see how Bush was misleading people. The opinion polls are for the pull out and it's important that opinion polls say the people didn't want to fight the Muslims in their land and they didn't want the Muslims to fight them in their land.

I propose a long-term truce that will give the two sides stability and security.

And this is the most important, most diligent solution as a result of which there will be no losses.

So what's your take on this, Paragon? I'm not sure what to make of it.

One writer's opinion ...

<BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-title">quote:</div><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-content">The "truce offer" is especially disconcerting; under Islamic law, Bin Laden is required to warn his victim and give them an opportunity to come to terms before the attack can be legitimately launched. It is likely that this is what Bin Laden is doing with the truce offer. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Sure Osama, come on out of hiding and we'll talk.....http://www.websmileys.com/sm/violent/sterb110.gif

That was loosely translated from what the purported Bin Laden said. They only aired excerpts of the tape that was sent to them, not even the whole thing and won't say what's on the rest of the tape.

I wouldn't read too much into Islamic beliefs. It's as varied as Christian beliefs and they simply twist thing to suit their current ire.

Sounds like we might have gotten close to punching al-Zawahri's ticket.

Hiding behind his sausage??? What?

[rodster]

Check out what Scott McClellen said today. Balls!

The White House rejected the truce offer.

The United States will not let up in the war on terror despite bin Laden's latest threats, White House press secretary Scott McClellan said. "We do not negotiate with terrorists," McClellan said. "We put them out of business."

Not only the translation is weird but- you know what ticks me off. Prolly not, but I'm going to tell you anyway...

Al Jazeera only airs specific portions of the speech/videos that they receive. That was only a portion of what was said. They also showed that journalist hostage speaking a message but never played the audio on air. I am uncertain if they cooperate with the US or it's allies and turn over copies but still.

They are the outlet for terrorist groups, small time militants and other cowardly cave-dwelling bastards. Gawd, you think CNN is bad- imagine what those seedy little savages are cooking up to feed.

[tanklizard]

Al Jazeera is as much a media outlet as Hamas is a political party. They're both nothing but terrorists pretending to be something they're not.

And our liberal media wants to grant them all the rights and freedoms journalists and politicians enjoy in a Democracy. All the while the terrorists are doing everything they can to destroy Democracy.

The media has got its head shoved so far up its @$$ that they haven't seen the light of day in years.
