Web site to carry new bin Laden tape on Iraq

DUBAI (Reuters) - An Islamist Web site said on Friday it would carry a new recording from al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden about “foiling plots” in Iraq.
The Web site said the 56-minute recording would also be about the Islamic State in Iraq, an al Qaeda-linked group in the country.
It did not say when the video or audio recording, produced by al Qaeda’s media arm As-Sahab and entitled “The Path to Foiling Plots in Iraq,” would be posted.
Al Qaeda messages have been often released within three days of their announcement on Web sides.
“May God expose the cover-up by Al Jazeera, the channel of the infidels,” said the Web site, which is often used to issue messages from al Qaeda.
It was not clear whether this meant bin Laden would speak about a controversy in which his supporters have accused the popular news channel of misrepresenting his comments on Iraq.
Some Islamists have said Al Jazeera misrepresented bin Laden’s views by airing excerpts of comments he made in October that insurgents had made mistakes in Iraq because of fanaticism.
While the Iraqi wing of al Qaeda remains at the forefront of many groups fighting U.S. forces and the Shi’ite-led government supported by Washington, its fighters have faced growing opposition in the Sunni areas of Iraq where they operate.
Angered by deadly attacks against Iraqis who fail to follow their hardline interpretation of Islam, Sunni tribes have begun to turn against the al Qaeda militants they once backed.
An increase in U.S. troops, more efficient Iraqi security forces and new neighborhood patrols organized by mainly Sunni Arab tribes have been credited with a decline in violence and a fall in civilian and U.S. military casualties in the past two months.
LOL!, I was wondering if you would make it. :^)
Hope that it is bigger than the Fred announcement yesterday!

Osama hated Bhutto because those flowing robes looked better on her and did nothing for his girlish figure.
P*ss on that sumb!tch!
As long as I got you on the line, what do you make with the almost-instant claim on Bhutto's assassination by Al Qaeda?
OK we cannot post the banner announcing the speech but a link will suffice:
The banner says: "soon allah willing, the means to destroy the conspiracies against Iraq and the islamic state, the Lion Sheikh, Osama Bin Laden, allah protects him".
This is produced by As-Sahab which is the media wing of Al Qaeda terrorists.
Do I have to point out what it looks like Osama is longing to have in the grip of his hand?
I don’t see no microphone!!!! LOL
Mistake! doesn’t he know its Musharraf and Bush’s fault?
No women/no American puppets. That’s the summary.
A new Binny flick! Gosh, I haven’t been this excited since the cat had kittens. Maybe the boys in al-Q will get their audio-animatronics puppet synched up a little better this time. Last time it was kinda embarrasing. The sound track was something like “Death to the infidels” but you could lip-read him saying “My goat has the clap.” I wonder if he liked the Christmas present I sent him? The guy never calls, he never writes...
He’s dead, Jim...
When and where? I know a good number of Marines who would like to show up for it.
Is this where he endorses Hillary?
He’s pushin up poppies, Norm.
When, may in the next few days, where, if we know he would be killed. Anyway it is a recording not a live speech. An evil terrorist coward like Bin Laden or all terrorists like him will never say where they are or give live speeches.
