Kalash funeral, an expensive affair

Kalash funeral, an expensive affair

More evidence Binny Laden DEAD

Laden 'sidelined' within Al-Qaeda

Agencies

London, Sept 16: Osama bin Laden has been sidelined by his followers and has no longer any control over the Al-Qaeda terror network, according to intelligence officials in Britain and the US.

Instead, his deputy has seized control and rebuilt the terror network into an organisation capable of launching complex attacks in Britain and America, a newspaper reported in London on Sunday, quoting the unnamed officials as saying.

According to them, bin Laden has not chaired a meeting of Al-Qaeda's ruling shura or council in more than two years. "Ayman al-Zawahiri, bin Laden's number two, has rebuilt the terror network since the Afghan war in 2001."

HE IS DEAD...FAKE VIDEO.

"Al-Qaeda under al-Zawahiri's direction has promoted a new generation of leaders to the highest echelons of the shura, a group of 20 to 30 leaders who govern operations, finance and religious fatwahs."

"The guys on the subs' bench are now in the first XI. They have stopped using mobile phones to talk to each other, which has made it more difficult to find them," a former British intelligence officer said.

Both British and American intelligence officials said that a network of terrorist cells, funded, controlled and supported by al-Qaeda's central command, based in the lawless tribal areas of Pakistan, was in place again.

In fact, Al-Zawahiri's task has been made easier as not a single prominent Al-Qaeda leader has been captured since March 2006, nearly 18 months ago, according to them.

Citing information gathered by Pakistani intelligence, Bruce Hoffman, a member of the US Military Academy's Combating Terrorism Centre, told the newspaper, "Bin Laden is the brand name but Al-Zawahiri is the grand-strategist.

"He has taken control of Al-Qaeda. Despite the new video (released this month), bin Laden has ceased to be a major force in decision-making and propaganda effort."

A CAREFUL REVIEW OF THE TAPES SHOWS BINNY HAS NOT MADE A THREAT IN OVER 2 YRS.

HE MAYBE IN A COUNTRY THAT HAS GRANTED HIM EXILE IF HE DID NOT RUN AQ OR THREATEN ??

g

BINNY HAS not BEEN HEARD FROM SINCE May 2006.

Why would all these ME countries carry this misleading, old story.


The video is from June 15, 2007, and has been posted all over the net, the video and the news is not new. It seems this is a pathetic attempt to boost insurgent moral, ole Binny is dead.

"Al Qaeda leader Osama Bin Laden is still alive but maintaining a low profile, Afghan warlord Gulbuddin Hekmatyar said in a latest video release.

"According to my information Osama is still alive," Hekmatyar, a former Afghan prime minister, said in the video aired by Al-Arabiya television late on Sunday.

"It is good" that Bin Laden "does not appear in the media", and "it is wise" that he "does not issue statements or tapes, even after a long while," said the warlord."

It is good he does not appear in the media, it is wise?
"even after a long time"

This guy isn't a mental giant.

Sure sounds like they are trying to cover up something, they doth protest too much....

Ole Binny is either dead ( HE IS DEAD,Zawahiri's tape WITHOUT BINNY more Proof ) or the advanced stages of cirrhosis, with advanced ascites, multiple parencentesis has left his protien levels below 4 and in a near comatose state unable to communicate. His edema has left him almost unrecognizable, his fingers like huge sausages. Problems with the parencentesis leaking and diuretics not working.

Close friends were able to recognize him.

The last video of Bin Laden was released in late 2004, and the last audio recording was made public in mid-2006.

Thats almost two years without a video and a year with no audio.

There is something going on,and its bad for Binny and good for the rest of the world.

It would also indicate they think its bad for the Islamofascists moral to disclose the details of his condition or death, either way he dies in bed. NOT a martyr.

No 72 virgins for Binny.

Would USA let him RIP no,
USA would dig him up to test his DNA.

Binny has transposed jahid to Hirabah, and explain it as an Islamic obligation.

The big picture is to form a caliphate from Spain to Northern Africa to the middle East and into Russia, a kind of Taliban control of Islamic life. This is a political movement masquerading as an Islamic cause.

Binny's death sure would take AQ down a notch.

not RIP
but
BIH
burn in hell.
