Cheney says bin Laden offer sounds like a ploy

WASHINGTON, Jan 19 (Reuters) - U.S. Vice President Dick Cheney said a conditional truce offer in a tape attributed to al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden on Thursday appeared to be a ploy but he was not ready to draw any conclusions.

Asked about the offer, Cheney told Fox News in an interview, "I'm not sure what he's offering by way of a truce. I don't think anybody would believe him ... It sounds to me like it's some kind of a ploy but again not having seen the entire text or validated the tape and the timing of it, I'm reluctant to draw any conclusions."
