I hear tell (via
CNN) that
Emmanuel Goldstein Osama bin Laden "plans a new video addressing the American people regarding the anniversary of the September 11 attacks" at some point between now and the 11
th of this month. For the life of me I can't figure out why he would choose now to produce a new video - it would be the six-year anniversary of the attack and the number six isn't significant in the Islamic world AFAIK. In fact, Osama hasn't produced a new video for American consumption since October 2004, just before the US presidential elections. I don't suppose this could have anything to do with the Republicans'
anemic poll numbers, could it? This couldn't have anything to do with the fact that Bush et al. have nothing else about which
We The People will pay so much as an iota of attention to them, could it?
It will be funny when their poll numbers drop even further after the video is released, Mission Accomplished and all that...

I love that Bush commented on the video, saying that it shows that we live in a violent world.
It also shows that the guy presumed to have been behind the attacks of six years ago is still out there making these videos.
But instead Bush went after the "low hanging fruit" in Iraq. Mission accomplished, and all that.
