Supposedly, the CIA and NSA fit that bill already, having unlimited resources, both in terms of $$$ and manpower, although whether they can live up to the task remains to be seen...
That would be too difficult for him. He can't hope to win on a level playing field; I mean, sh!t, he couldn't even defend his own country from the "infidels" - how the hell could he hope to win against a military target...?? It's much easier for this clown to attack children and pregnant women than it is to fight another army... (Obviously the one exception is the 9/11 attack of the pentagon - which frankly, was an amazing success for them, only because the US was sooooooo ill-prepared for an attack on our soil).
Even if a small part of it is true.. atom bombs already in place.. ....Al-Qaeda, according to him, has 5,000 first rank operatives and around 20,000 all over the world. Of all the prisoners in the US, only "20 or 30" are al-Qaeda, and all of them "second-rank".... ...Al-Usuquf insists that September 11 "was just the beginning. It was a way to call the world's attention to what's going to happen." He then details a plan to destroy the US by "attacking the heart of what they consider the most important thing in the world: money".... ...Al-Usuquf is absolutely positive, "because, in a smaller scale, this is exactly what big financial conglomerates do with Third World countries to collect profits in one month that no Swiss bank would guarantee in four to five years". Al-Usuquf says that al-Qaeda could do the same by "provoking a deficit of $50 to 70 trillion, the equivalent to five to seven years of the GNP of the US". How? By "destroying America's seven largest cities and some other measures". The means? "Atomic bombs." Al-Usuquf's most startling revelation is that the bombs "won't be launched, they are already there". "... "Seven nuclear heads have already been positioned on American soil, before September 11, and they are ready to be detonated. Before September 11, American security was a fiasco, and even later, if we needed, we could position the bombs there. They arrived through seaports, as normal cargo. A nuclear head is not bigger than a fridge, so it can easily be camouflaged as one. Thousands of containers arrive at a seaport every day, and even with very efficient security, it's impossible to check and examine each one of them." Al-Usuquf says that the bombs cannot be detected by US authorities. "Even if they are old, they were modernized and are very well hidden. Even if they were located, they have autodetonation mechanisms in case something or someone gets close. Even an electromagnetic pulse is not capable of deactivating them." Al-Usuquf details the whole plan.. And whatever America does, "it's too late". When will the attack begin? "I can't tell." http://www.atimes.com/atimes/Front_Page/DK15Aa01.html I hope that we are focusing our efforts in the right areas and not some wild goose chase. Josh
Maybe the reason the we heard an audio tape and not a videotape is because has undergone extensive appearance- altering plastic surgery. He now resembles Liza Minelli, hangs out in mid-town Mahattan and goes to Broadway shows.

heh yeah.. i just came here to say that story was a hoax, but you already found out. today i tried to send some family members that link and noticed the hoax message.
It has come to light that Osama Bin Laden was a big fan of western science fiction. He liked the Star Wars movies and the Isaac Asimov book series referred to as the "foundation series". These books feature a wise intellectual who forsees the destruction of "the empire". He creates a "foundation" to provide help to those who would bring down the empire. He pre-records inspiring messages to be released periodically to his follwers long after his death. "Al Qaida" can be translated as "foundation". The tapes could be real, and Osama could be dead. The two are not mutually exclusive.
...Most hoaxes usually are: http://antivirus.about.com/library/hoaxes/bljazeera.htm http://www.atimes.com/atimes/Front_Page/DK15Aa01.html.. I sure hope you are right, and we focus on the real chase. Interesting that today on most of news services, they kept on talking about FBI and warnings of a "spectacular terrorist attack". Josh
that article is probably a hoax, but the economic theory part of it is very realistic. The truth is that they don't need to kill us off to destroy us economically, which is their true goal. They talk about religion and oppression, but that is just a moral smokescreen to sooth their conscience. What would it take to wreck the U.S. economy for a decade? 1 atomic bomb, or one nationwide outbreak of smallpox. That's it. Iraq or several other countries would be able to do it, but they don't want to be destroyed by a counter-attack. Mutual assured destruction works when dealing with nation states. But, it doesn't work against non-national terrorist organizations. So, Sadam or another crazy bastard will simply give or sell his weapons to the terrorists. That is why taking out dictators like Sadam is self defense, and not random evil agression for oil. Lack of oil is not the greatest threat we face. There is enough oil from non-middle eastern sources to allow us to minimally survive. The real threat we face is economic shutdown, i.e. depression. As soon as there is radiation or smallpox or some such thing lose in america, all trade will completely stop. Remember the dock shutdown in California? Imagine the ENTIRE COUNTRY shutdown like that, not for weeks, but for months. Then lingering fear by foreighners about visiting the u.s., purchasing food from the u.s., etc. which would effect us for decades. Then add on top of that the absolutely massive deficit spending that would be required just to keep everybody alive. The military would not have a foreighn target to hit. The military would be called home to simply maintain order and keep supplies and infrastructure going for survival. We would be a bankrupt country under martial law. Of course all this is hypothetical, but if there is even a 1% chance of it happening, then it justifies counter measures. We need the homeland security act, and we need to take out Sadam, and we need to do it quickly.
