The definition of "new" from the Al Jazeera dictionary is: Retouched or altered.

The report did not say if western news outlets will broadcast (live or taped) the video. Still nothing on the news wires on this...

"**Al-Jazerra to broadcast "new" bin Laden video in 30 minutes**"

This would be the 'Christmas' video shot on or about October 15th?

The 'network TV' debut, IMHO.(who's starring as Usama in this one?) {;~)

"The Osama bin Laden Christmas Special". Will this be a "keeper" like the Star Wars Christmas Special?

But Whorelado said he was "cornered".

Shocking, Jerry Rivers must have lied!

Interesting. On one of the 24-hour cable tv news channels yesterday, one of the people interviewed said the CIA should be monitoring everyone/everthing that goes in or out of Al-Jazerra.

I'm picturing Whorealdo trying to find a corner in a round cave. A one-panel Far Side cartoon, perhaps, subtitled, "How to keep an egomaniac television 'journalist' busy..."

Nope. We bombed their Afghanistan office. Their main broadcast facilities are in Qatar.

Maybe some enterprising Al-Jazerra employee would like to earn some of that $25 million or is it $35 million bounty?

A new release of Useless never-bin-Laiden video means an attack or attempted attack is imminent.

That's conventional wisdom isn't it? But I don't recall any OBL attack after the second video (the one released the same day we started bombing Afghanistan) unless we count the Anthrax which we are told is domestic.

It has nothing to do with "scooping". It has everything to do with Al Jazeera being sympathetic and complicit to terrorists causes. Although I would argue that Peter Jennnings and Dan Rather spew just as much false propaganda, western news organizations are considered suspect by terrorists and Arabs (yet I repeat myself).

What better way to get the desired coverage than stage something for New Year's Eve, in front of all those cameras set up around the world to celebrate the midnight moment?

Wouldn't any OBL video need translation and careful screening before release? I suspect the cockroach is still alive, and this may be an attempt to get a message to his kooks.

If the CIA is worth it's salt, and not still hamstrung by Clintonesque procedural sabotage, then they probably have operatives in their main offices... on staff. We might get some interesting info regarding OBL and his whereabouts if what I surmise to be true... is.

They're concerned about some hidden message, so they are not going to air one single word, only commentary.

From the description MSNBC gave of the tape it could have been made a month ago. Nothing specific. Completely generic information. USA bombing Afghanistan with no proof that bin Laden did it. Said it shows that the U.S. is jealous of the Muslim faith. This tape, if that's all there is to it, means nothing. No reference to anything recent to prove that he made it recently. A waste of time.
