Osama Claims Islam is Victim of West and Zionists

Bin LadenA presumably new bin Laden audiotape was aired by Aljazeera today. It's not clear when the recording was made and it hasn't been authenticated but the voice sounds similar to previous tapes from the Osama studiocave.

From Aljazeera.net:
Aljazeera has aired an audiotape attributed to Osama bin Laden in which he attacks the West for boycotting Hamas and accuses Western governments of waging a "Crusader war" against Islam.

In the recording, aired on Sunday, the al-Qaeda leader said the isolation and cutting off of aid to the Hamas-led Palestinian government reaffirmed that the West was at war with the Islamic nation.

"The blockade which the West is imposing on the government of Hamas proves that there is a Zionist crusaders war on Islam," he said.
Evidently, bin Laden wants everyone to believe that Islam is being victimized by the West and the Zionists. He goes on to say that since the populations of the West support their governments, they too become legitimate targets for al-Qaeda. This apparently justifies indiscriminate killing of innocent civilians.

Bin Laden also urges his thugs to fight American attempts to divide Sudan and to take action against any country who has sided with Denmark in the cartoon controversy. Bin Laden's previous message in January extended an offer of a truce with the American people. Today's message had nothing similar, only belligerence and victimhood.

Hey, Osama, how about a peace offering? I could have a pizza delivered. What is your location? Sausage okay?
