Wikileaks obtains 10 years of messages, interviews from Osama bin Laden translated by CIA

[Syrinx]

Wikileaks.org, the website dedicated to leaking previously unreleased documents, has obtained 10 years of messages and interviews by Osama bin Laden, the leader of al-Qaeda. The documents were translated by the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) in the United States.

The nearly three hundred page, 'official use only' packet from 2004, translated by the Foreign Broadcast Information Service (FBIS), a division of the CIA, includes interviews with bin Laden from various news agencies and also includes messages he sent directly to the U.S. from the periods of 1994 to 2004.

One message includes bin Laden's denial of having anything to do with the September 11, 2001 attacks in New York City, Washington, D.C. and Pennsylvania.

"Following the latest explosions in the United States, some Americans are pointing the finger at me, but I deny that because I have not done it. The United States has always accused me of these incidents which have been caused by its enemies. Reiterating once again, I say that I have not done it, and the perpetrators have carried this out because of their own interest," said bin Laden on September 16, 2001, just five days after the attacks.

1. Say WHAT???

:wtf:

[ColbertWatcher]

2. Go Wikileaks! Let's hope some of this has been verified!

3. "The U.S has never charged or indicted bin Laden for the 9/11 attacks" - True

After all, who needs courts and lawyers and such when ya got bombs and an interest in building a pipeline and sucking up some oil fields?

How soon we forgot that the Taliban offered to extradite Bin Laden to a neutral jurisdiction upon presentation of a prima facie case. "Extradition"?? How 20th century!

:puke:

5. What about the '92 WTC bombing.

No trial, but he was singled as financier head somehow by BC. Yes, assumed head of '01 9/11.

Still, sounds to me as though there is some rewriting history possible with this release.

10. Saddam was responsible for 9/11 don't ya know.

He's dead now though, so no sense in trying to investigate 9/11 further.:sarcasm:

[FlyingSquirrel]

4. He was either wussin' out because he was afraid he'd been too successful

or he was just spewing crap because that's all he ever spews.

[cui bono]

6. Would this have anything to do with Perino saying Bin Laden was not the mastermind

of 9/11 the other day?

[Syrinx]

7. hmm

That didn't occur to me. But that's interesting.

8. Why, what a co-inky dink!

[nolabels]

9. Or the other way around

Nothing, absolutely nothing surprises with the current set of freaks and the crap they continue to spew

11. i think Bin Laden is talking out of both sides of his mouth....

he was in on it.

I think that the administration just used him by NOT catching him...
used 9/11 as an excuse to do what they wanted to do, instead of catching him and having it resolved.

that's my opinion, anyway.
