Al-Qaeda Blinks? Threatens more Attacks.
Al-Jazeera has aired portions of an audiotape they claim is from Osama bin Laden. Bin Laden claims that America will be attacked and have not attacked the US because they are not ready.

(AP via Breitbart) :"because there are operations that need preparations, and you will see them,"Also Bin Laden offers the possibility of a Truce.
Based on what I have said, it is better not to fight the Muslims on their land," he said. "We do not mind offering you a truce that is fair and long-term. ... So we can build Iraq and Afghanistan ... there is no shame in this solution because it prevents wasting of billions of dollars ... to merchants of warFirst of all most tapes from Al-Qaeda have been from Al-Zawahiri of late so why Bin-Laden now? It may be that Zawahiri is no longer able to do so because of the US air strike in Pakistan that took out ZawahiriÂ’s Son-in-Law. He is suspected of being a primary route of communication. Also Bin-LadenÂ’s stated goal was to bankrupt the US in order to win. Apparently our pockets are a bit deeper that UBL anticipated. In the past these tapes have been used to signal operatives. UBL may have anticipated the recent wave of attacks would leave us ripe for a truce. Wrong again! It is better to fight them were they are rather than let them dictate the terms of the fight.
BBC reports there is some disagreement as to the identity of the speaker.
Others: Flopping Aces, In the Bullpen, Stop the ALCU, and Michelle Malkin.
Update: CIA confirms voice on tape is indeed Bin-Laden.

If this guy's still alive - I want some real tangible prove. The Basement tapes don't cut it for me anymore.

What he's offering is a hudna, a truce that allows the muslims time to regroup and prepare new attacks. Now's the time to attack Iran and Syria.

I agree with improbulus maximus,
This is usually a sign of weakness or possibly not weakness but a "handshake and then a knife in the back" as you turn".
America must be on to something good if he's sending tapes like that. I say keep sweeping the land. Secure the safety of the Iraq people.
Remember when Bin-Ladin first started his terror? He declared war! who the hell is he to say when a war finishes or when we should take a pause? Reap what you sow. He thaught he would shake America to her knees and I say; "Kiss my ASS"! We have caught most of his attacks before they happen. Maybe not all of his attacks, but have have caught a great deal of them. We are all watching the internet closely and our eyes are always watching the shadows. When something looks to harm America, we the people of the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA ARE NOT AFRAID! We will seek justice and Liberty for all!
When we catch Bin-laden, as punishment, we should tattoo all the flags of the countries that help seek him out on his body, stick him a pink cell, and play Walt Disney's, "it's a small world after all" over and over again!
