Washington - Experts analyzing a purported Osama bin Laden video believe the voice in the message is the al-Qaeda leader's, a US intelligence official said Friday. The video became public just days before the sixth anniversary of the September 11 suicide plane attacks attacks on New York and Washington, which killed nearly 3,000 people. "Initial technical analysis of the videotape suggests that the voice is indeed that of Osama bin Laden," said the US official, who spoke on condition he not be identified. The speaker believed to be bin Laden praises militants who kill US soldiers in Iraq and urges the world to embrace Islam in what appeared to be his first video message in three years, according to a transcript obtained by US television networks.

'Bin Laden' Offers US Foreign Policy Editorial

The pre-released teaser image shows an apparently older looking Bin Laden with a dyed dark brown beard, meaning the individual in the tape is either a body double or the terror master has been using Grecian Formula 16 in between his dashing from cave to cave across the mountainous Pakistani border region.
But whether you think it's Bin Laden or not is really beside the point, the thing to bear in mind here is that Osama has never failed in ensuring his tapes get released at the most politically opportune times - not for 'Al-Qaeda' - but for the Neo-Cons and the Bush administration.
On the eve of the Iraq war during Colin Powell's infamous presentation to the UN, an audio tape in which bin Laden claimed he was allied with Saddam Hussein surfaced, a gift-wrapped present for the Neo-Cons who had consistently been proven wrong in their assertion that there was a connection between Iraq and 9/11.
Though such transparent and debase propaganda is still more than enough to fool the remnants of the semi-retarded, kool-aid drinking, Neo-Con cheerleaders out there, many Americans with more than three brain cells to rub together are starting to realize that they have been led on one almighty goose chase.
The Osama tapes are about as genuine as a used car salesman convention, and have been proven fraudulent on countless occasions. They are nothing more than crude propaganda unleashed in a desperate move to put the genie of what really happened on 9/11 back in the bottle.

That may be his voice but if you look at the video... This guy doesn't even closely resemble other shots of the infamous murderer. So the US military can't find find him and you mean to tell me that HE could find some "Just For Men" hair dye for his beard?! Hey guys! I know where Osama is hiding! He's in Hollywood!
