		<description>OSAMA bin Laden, New Black Beard...Un-Real !
You can read my full analysis of the beard and the pictures showing his progression through the years. Anyone who looks at the evidence will make the same conclusions. The video is a Hoax!

		<description>MerlinOS2,

Yikes.....I&#039;m a newly diagnosed diabetic, I thought I&#039;d read most everything that points out all the nasty things I have to deal with should I not get it under control.  I know it can affect my vision but I haven&#039;t seen any references to the &quot;droopy eyelid&quot; etc.  Can you point me to info where I can find out more about this?

(Sorry to go off topic folks).

Thanks.</description>

		<description>I just read the transcript. The words betray a sense of defeatism; this particular message from the jihadi leader is very close to a capitulation. The absence of belligerence, the absence of a call to jihad, and the absence of the recruitment of martyrs is telling. 

The missive dwells on the failures of the Democratic Party because in the eyes of Osama, there is a failure to be justified here. He is scolding them.

 I have been saying that in this war there will be no formal surrender. Perhaps I was wrong. From the beginning, we have ascribed super-human power to these people, so we may be mis-reading what amounts to an indication that they&#039;ve thrown in the towel. (Pun intended).</description>

		<description>ML

There are even more hints if you examine the pdf captures.

&lt;blockquote&gt;
  When analyzing the transcript, however, it was noted that &lt;b&gt;the date of transcription is &lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;yesterday, 6&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;b&gt; September 2007,&lt;/b&gt; one full day &lt;i&gt;before&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt; the video was allegedly obtained. The date is prominently displayed in the lower left hand corner of the document in a traditional U.S. format (MM/DD/YY). Usually, an official government document will use the DD/MM/YYYY format.
  
  Additionally, the transcript begins with the number &quot;2&quot; on the bottom center of the document, which was apparently scanned as a picture file and formatted into PDF. Although this is not unusual, we note that the cover page appears to be missing based on the page numeration.

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;I agree he doesnâ€™t look well at all. The right eye definitely droops, if it isnâ€™t from injury perhaps heâ€™s had a strokeâ€¦.or some sort of palsy. He looks like a balloon that hasnâ€™t been fully inflated.
  
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
Actually is is closer to a symptom of being a diabetic.

		<description>By leaking the video before even the Islamo-web sites posted it, someone has betrayed our ability to tap into the AQ communications network.</description>

		<description>I think it IS Osama, but I think he&#039;s shaved off his real beard (perhaps to move around)?  In that case he had to come up with a beard to make this video.....too bad he couldn&#039;t have come with one that is less &quot;fakey&quot;.  His past beard not only had a lot of grey in it, it was rather unkempt &amp; straggly.  Another reason I think it&#039;s Osama; on another site they had two pictures side by side.  One thing that hasn&#039;t changed is his nose.....what a honker!

I agree he doesn&#039;t look well at all. The right eye definitely droops, if it isn&#039;t from injury perhaps he&#039;s had a stroke....or some sort of palsy.  He looks like a balloon that hasn&#039;t been fully inflated.

Dubya may be gray but he sure looks fit and trim; Osama looks like he&#039;s been rode hard &amp; put up wet.</description>

Soothie, Bush has gone after the terrorists, the only thing Bill Clinton was chasing was tail, the old horndog.</description>

		<description>Southie, Southie...you can do better than this old propaganda.  Can&#039;t you at least be new and innovative instead of regurgitating the same old Dem and AQ talking points??  

I guess though that may require actual thought process instead of merely &quot;copy and paste&quot; - which is asking a lot from far leftists like yourself.</description>

		<description>&lt;b&gt;at least Bush is trying&lt;/b&gt;

Bull-oney!!

He virtually admitted the other day that there is no chance of HIS pet quagmire being rectified during his presidency, so he&#039;s dragging it out so he can saddle whoever the next president is - Dem or Repub - with the problem.

This, in light of the recent revelations that he was briefed by Tenet specifically that Saddam Hussein did NOT have WMD&#039;s and chose to ignore the date, pretty much sets it in stone:  

&lt;b&gt;George Walker Bush, 43rd and Worst President of the United States of America.&lt;/b&gt;</description>

		<description>Jaqui:

I agree, I am not sure this is Bin Laden either.

sooth:

Oh shuddup, at least Bush is trying, all the Democrats do is threaten to invade people and then kiss butt when it comes time to actually fight.

If they had gone after Bin Laden in the 90&#039;s when declared war on the US there would not have been a 9/11 attack. The chickens.</description>
