Al Jazeera: New Bin Laden Audiotape
Posted by admin on 2006/1/19 16:30:22

Al Jazeera's english-language website bannered a breaking news report that it has recieved an audio tape from Osama bin Laden warning of an "imminent attack".

According to the current American media reporting on this audio tape bin Laden is directly addressing the American people. Western media are giving translations of bin Laden's words as offering "conditional truce" to the American people if we withdraw our troops from Aghanistan. At the same time bin Laden reportedly goes on to say that new attacks are being prepared and "you will see them".

Up to this point we do not believe bin Laden has ever offered the US any "conditional truce" as was the case with Europe. This is an indicator of the audio tape prossibly being a recent construct. Bin Laden's offer of a conditional truce to the west included no conditions for a truce in the portion released by Al-Jazeera:

"We do not mind offering you a long-term truce with fair conditions that we adhere to. We are a nation that God has forbidden to lie and cheat. So both sides can enjoy security and stability under this truce so we can build Iraq and Afghanistan, which have been destroyed in this war. There is no shame in this solution, which prevents the wasting of billions of dollars that have gone to those with influence and merchants of war in America."

This bin Laden audio release appears to be a blatant attempt to divert attention from the ongoing nuclear crisis between the western allies and Iran. Based upon our analysis we believe Osama bin Laden has long found safe haven in the Islamic Republic of Iran along with his son, Saad, and other key Al Qaeda leadership.

Should Osama bin Laden's threat of attacks upon the US homeland come to fruition, Iran should be pre-emptively placed on notice and held accountable that any such potential terrorist attacks will be considered de facto acts of war by the Islamic Republic of Iran upon the United States of America.

* 19 January, 2006: Further Developments-

The bin Laden audio tape has been authenticated. Furthermore, it has been dated to within the past 45 days. This has been the longest period without a video or audio taped message from Bin Laden. The last released message was more than one year ago.

While Al-Jazeera has broadcast portions of this audiotape from Osama bin Laden, there are larger portions of the tape which have not been released at this time.

As the audio tape is being translated, the Northeast Intelligence Network has received confirmation that several direct threats are made against locations and interests within the United States itself.

This partial release of bin Laden's message holds a dire and direct relationship to the recent news reports and stories concerning suspect un-traceable cell-phone purchases.
 

The Northeast Intelligence Network continues to investigate this message, and its possible impact on the current threat situation to the United States, and its interests around the globe. Check back for updates and further developments, which will be posted as they are uncovered.
