Today's Brain Teaser

The Taliban said that Osama Bin Ladin wasn't behind the terrorist attacks on the WTC or Pentagon. Now they're saying that if the war continues, they'll have planes crashing into buildings all over the world.

Bin Ladin has said essentially the same thing -- that he had nothing to do with the Sept 11 attacks, but that other attacks would occur if America and Britain continue.

Now: if they have nothing to do with such attacks, why are they threatening *additional* attacks? :)

The fact that they are frantically calling for Jihad (more and more frantically, as each day passes) indicates to me that the boys might be getting just a tad desperate, too ...

But that's just me.

Stephen do you mean "a tad desperate" in trying to rally the troops because he knows he can't possibly win this war? He might do a 'hitler' and end his own life before there's an end to the conflict.

IMO Osama IS the Taliban; Osama runs that government. The clerics follow what Osama tells them; they have no real power.
