Osama’s new tape is out. Apparently if we all convert to Islam the attacks will stop. Well, golly Mr. Bin Landen, sir, why didn’t we think of that before!
My favorite bits:
the reeling of many of you under the burden of interest-related debts, insane taxes and real estate mortgages; global warming and its woes…
I invite you to embrace Islam…There are no taxes in Islam, but rather there is a limited Zakaat [alms] totaling 2.5 percent.
Apparently Bin Laden is now attempting to appeal to Supply Siders - this strategy is not without merit since many Supply Siders are also very religiously conservative - I keed, I keed.
Also - what the hell do real estate mortgages and global warming have to do with Islam? I mean if we really want to get down to the basics global warming is allegedly fueled by oil usage, which comes from where? That’s right, the Islamic World. And the recent sub-prime mess? What Allah would have stepped in and given 30 pieces of silver to each borrower to stave off foreclosure? Give me a break.
He goes on to call Noam Chomsky “among one of the most capable of those from your own side,”
Not that anyone really questioned whether or not Chomsky was an America hating ignoramus - but being praised by the biggest America hating ignoramus of all time must give him more street cred no?
“It has now become clear to you and the entire world the impotence of the democratic system and how it plays with the interests of the peoples and their blood by sacrificing soldiers and populations to achieve the interests of the major corporations.”
There it is folks - the Bin Laden doctrine spelled out in black and white. What strikes me right off is - it is the exact opposite of the Bush Doctrine. Spread fascism and religion in order to destroy secular democracy. As much as I fault George Bush for his screw-ups, and there have been many, he did seem to understand the fundamental struggle of our time. If only he had the ability to execute his vision with any sort of competence.
It is further striking that the Jihadi’s are parroting the exact language of the America hating left - blame everything on corporations. I’m not saying that the left wants us to slouch into Islamo-Fascism - but the similarities are too striking to dismiss.
