Does anyone believe this is the real deal or is it another tape of Bin Laden on holiday from a few years ago?

I have heard they're establishing whether it was recently taken.

Is this another blow against Bush and his War?

Maybe it is really him,and when the bombing in Afghanistan was happening he was away,probably in Pakistan.

Does it matter if he's dead, so long as he's rendered incapable of doing anything?

Wasn't this clown supposed to have needed dialysis? I can't imagine how they're keeping him alive in a cave out in the metaphorical backwoods of Pakistan if that's the case. Me, I suspect that one of the bombing raids splashed him all over the landscape in Afghanistan.

Bin Laden = Rasputin?

The video just shows him walking around, never saying a word. The audio is completely disconnected. So this proves jack and shit. Really, every tape which does not show Bin laden speaking supports him being dead, rather then alive.

Or Fidel Castro. Nah, Castro, being demonstrably alive, is a step up still.

Best way to deal with Bin-Laden is as follows: Get a few look-a-likes and get them to appear in places like Las Vegas, Monaco and the like. Make it look like he fucked off with the money and sold out. Don't make a marter make a joke.

That would be good. Just have a few plain clothes police near so your stand in isn't arrested.

Yes he had been on kidney dialysis for some time before September 11th 2001. However with his resources if he reached even remotely developed country he could have gotten a transplant, there's a big market in that part of the world for organs.
