Osama bin Laden is back
http://english.pravda.ru/mailbox/22/101/399/16786_osama.html

After the 9/11 attacks in New York City and Washington, D.C., Al Qaeda was criticized by those within its own ideological persuasion, not for having attacked the U.S., but for not having followed correct religious procedures. It had failed to get the proper religious/legal rulings in support of such an attack; had not warned Muslims, women, children, and innocent civilians; and had not made an offer of peaceful resolution - all before attacking.

As of today, all of these conditions have been fulfilled with respect to the next attack in the U.S. Religious rulings have been obtained, warnings have been issued, and offers of a peaceful resolution - to accept a truce if the U.S. offers one - have been made. In Bin Laden's mind, and in the minds of likeminded fundamentalist jihadists, all the preconditions have been met for directly attacking the United States. This is the real meaning of the audiotape.

1. Pravda really isn't anything to be trusted
Back in the day it was Soviet propoganda. These days it's on par with a supermarket tabloid.

Of only Fox News would go the way of Pravda and become a useless source of easily recognized misinformation...Hell, "Inside Edition" Bill O'Reiley would feel right at home!

4. Agreed, little creditability;
I have heard that the BBC reading of the transcript made no mention of a "truce"....But my information has no more cred' than Pravda. I still feel very skeptical about it all.
