The Mahdi Lives

The Madhi is alive. Usama al Mohammed bin Laden has emerged from the hinterlands after an eight month absence. He looks good, nice complexion, well-trimmed beard and steady hands.

The wily freedom fighter compared "Bush to corrupt Arab governments". Usama believes he is freeing people from corrupt regimes by blowing them to bits.

Usama said he had to act after the Israelis "invaded Lebannon in 1982". Apparently geography isn't taught in Saudi madrassas. Usama seems to think that America is a province of Israel. But why let geography get in the way when you want to murder five billion infidels. Meat grinders don't care what is fed into their machinations.

Usama showed compassion when he said "the 911 attacks wouldn't have been as devastating if Bush had been more alert". I guess the Mahdi thinks that the President sits in front of a radar screen dutifully monitoring the nation's air traffic control system or works part time as a passenger screener at airports.

The October surprise has come. I wonder which candidate benefits from the Mahdi's reappearance. I don't know.....but Kerry statements resemble Usama's more than Bush's.
