Bin Laden says new US attacks prepared - Yahoo! News
Just in time for the State of the Union address, where Bush will ask for a bunch of money for the perpetual, never-ending "war on terra"! How convenient!

DUBAI (Reuters) - Osama bin Laden warned that al Qaeda was preparing new attacks inside the United States, but said the group was open to a conditional truce with Americans, according to an audio tape attributed to him on Thursday.

"The operations are under preparation and you will see them in your houses as soon as they are complete, God willing," said the speaker on the audio tape, who sounded like bin Laden.

In the tape, broadcast by al Jazeera television, bin Laden said al Qaeda was willing to respond to public U.S. opinion in favor of withdrawing troops from Iraq.

"We have no objection to responding to this with a long term truce based on fair conditions."

Ha. There will never be any "truce" or cessation of hostilities. Without war, the Republicans are nothing but a bunch of thieves. Without war, there is no justification for the money spigot to keep flowing into bloated defense contracts. Without war, there is no need for the continuing power grab and invasion into our personal lives. They need Osama around.

On the flip side, Osama needs them to continue on with his bullshit. I fully expect him to pop back up around election time (providing he is still alive- I really thought he was dead. Maybe they have a backlog of tapes to trot out every few years)

Peas in a pod, these two are. Too bad innocents are caught in the middle.
