Will he or won’t he? That my friends is the question. Will Osama bin Laden endorse Barack Hussein Obama for President of the United States? I guess we’ll see soon won’t we. What other reason would he have to release a tape other than the American public and news media is preoccupied with the election and not his war.
From Reuters:
Al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden is expected to release a new message, the U.S.-based terrorism monitoring service SITE Institute said on Wednesday.
The message is entitled, “The Response Will Be What You See, Not What You Hear,” SITE said in a release.
It said an announcement of the pending message was posted on Wednesday, the fifth anniversary of the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq, by the administrator of the al Qaeda-affiliated Al-Ekhlaas Internet forum.

A source close to the Obama campaign tells Gribbit’s Word on the condition of anonymity, “Barack has promised to declare defeat and pull US Forces out of Iraq starting his first day in office. We can’t understand why bin Laden wouldn’t welcome this.”
