Al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden -- in a blunt new message that coincides with Israel's 60th anniversary -- urged his followers to liberate Palestine, a terrorism analyst told CNN on Friday.
Bin Laden's audio message, released Thursday, told listeners that "liberating" Palestine should be the aim of every Muslim, according to terrorism analyst Laura Mansfield.
The message, which was played over a still image on jihadist Web sites, runs 9 minutes and 40 seconds. In it, Bin Laden decries characterization of Palestinian militant groups as terror organizations. He also says Israel has engaged in terror.
"As your low values show double standards in one issue, you call the Palestinian organizations terror organizations. They were punished and ignored.
"On the other hand, the Israelis were killing civilians from women and children, either through car bombs as in Haifa and elsewhere. Or what is worse than that, when the Zionist organizations massacred Palestinian villagers by scaring him, deporting them, and robbing their lands, what was your stance?"
Today, bin Laden says, "we are living the massacre of Gaza," the Palestinian-controlled territory. Israeli troops and Palestinian militants from Gaza have been fighting and Israeli security moves have had severe humanitarian consequences.
"It is happening in front of the eyes of the world. One and a half million individuals under the deadly bombing are dying slowly because of poor nutrition and scarcity of medicine," bin Laden said. "But your politicians require Egypt's ruler to provision the embargo on them to choke the weak and most of them are women and children."
Bin Laden emphasizes the fighting will continue against "the Israelis and their allies, to obtain justice, to be fair to the ones mistreated."
"We will not abandon one inch of Palestine, God willing, if there is one honest Muslim man left in this world," bin Laden said.

The Dumya cronies are circulating another grainy VHS cassette, starring some good-haired, fair complected brother from the deep end of Prince George County again, huh? C'mon! It's not even October! The whigged out ReThugniCons can't possibly be this scared and desperate already. Was it the Edwards endorcement that sent them over this edge?

I'm trying to understand why bin Laden would have said, "We will not abandon one inch of Palestine, God willing, if there is one honest Muslim man left in this world." If he is an honest Muslim shouldn't he have said, "Allah willing..."? Perhaps it's possible that I just don't know what I am talking about.
