Aren't you glad this guy is still out there? I mean we know we're a safer nation thanks to the removal of Saddam Hussien, but now we can feel even more protected knowing that the man that caused 9/11 is stil around:
"DUBAI (Reuters) - An audio tape purportedly from al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden, aired on Monday urging Iraqis to boycott January parliamentary polls and saying anyone who takes part would be an "infidel."
The speaker on the tape, excerpts of which were broadcast by Arabic television channel Al Jazeera, also praised bloody attacks by al Qaeda ally Abu Musab al-Zarqawi on U.S. troops and government officials in Iraq, hailing the Jordanian militant as a true "soldier of God" and al Qaeda's leader in Iraq.
Al Jazeera said the speaker repeated a call from an earlier tape purportedly by bin Laden for attacks on oil installations. Another part of the tape called on Muslims to boycott elections such as the Palestinian presidential polls next month, it said.
"The constitution imposed by the American occupier (Paul) Bremer is blasphemous ... and anyone who takes part in this election consciously and willingly is an infidel," said the speaker, who sounded similar to previous bin Laden recordings.
"You have to be careful of those charlatans who, under the guise of Islamic parties, urge the people to take part in the election," he added."
