In reply to the discussion: Osama Confession Video [View all]cpwm17

Here's the October 29, 2004 video of Osama from Al Jazeera:
with the English transcript from Al Jazeera:

This means the oppressing and embargoing to death of millions as Bush Sr did in Iraq in the greatest mass slaughter of children mankind has ever known, and it means the throwing of millions of pounds of bombs and explosives at millions of children - also in Iraq - as Bush Jr did, in order to remove an old agent and replace him with a new puppet to assist in the pilfering of Iraq's oil and other outrages.
So with these images and their like as their background, the events of September 11th came as a reply to those great wrongs, should a man be blamed for defending his sanctuary?
Is defending oneself and punishing the aggressor in kind, objectionable terrorism? If it is such, then it is unavoidable for us.
This is the message which I sought to communicate to you in word and deed, repeatedly, for years before September 11th.
If it were possible for the US to fake the 9-11 attacks, the US certainly wouldn't claim that Saudis were the perpetrators; and that Bush Sr's slaughter or Clinton's devastating sanctions against Iraq, or our support for Israel were motivating factors for 9-11. That puts US foreign policy in the cross-hairs and motivates questions of our support for a couple of alleged allies: Saudi Arabia and Israel.

You seem to be having difficulty with the English Language and very simple concepts.

So a video of someone bragging about comitting a crime is not hard evidence?

Oh, so you think maybe bin Laden might have painted the buildings with exploding paint?

Why should I expect that explaining it a fourth time would make a difference?

That's rather authoritarian of you to accept the FBI so righteously, The Doctor.

So now you believe there is a conspiracy theory that the FBI dismisses hard evidence?
