osama

So Osama published another video the other day. I haven't seen it, and I'm not interested, but I heard that he is advising Americans to renounce democracy and convert to Islam. Besides the fact that statement two is completely non sequitur to the first, there is some bizarre development here.

First, you fly a couple of planes into tall buildings killing almost 3000 people, then you ask those still alive to join your party. I'm not sure there has ever been a colder dead start.

One really has to wonder about bin Laden. What happened to the devoted jihadist bound on sending Americans to hell. Now he's asking them to dance Kumbaya with him? It's bullshit. Just imagine: The day the last American converts to Islam and the entire country steps forward to receive the blessing of the big Bin, the fellow leans back in his chair, kicks back his head, has a good laugh and the says: Just kidding guys. You're all gonna die.

Maybe he's gone senile. Living the last three years in a damp, dark cave somewhere in the mountains of Stoneagistan didn't help his disposition. Now he's dreaming of peace and love. I wonder whether he'll be in the video dressed up in a tie-dyed shirt and wearing flowers in his hair instead of the usual towel.

Who can take him seriously? He's just like any other hobo living under the Third Street overpass and has about as much to say. The hobo doesn't get airtime to disseminate his drunken nonsense. Why does bin Laden? Think about it, but be aware that you're thinking about the wrong question. The right question is why thousands still draw inspiration from such a clown and kill themselves and others for his delusions.

Bin Laden is living in a hotel suite somewhere in Florida. I swear. And I don't think he's the one putting the videos out. I think it's some Americans--just to keep the hate strong on our end.
He puts out more tapes than John Lennon and Tupak Shakur combined without having made a public appearance. He might be dead.
