25. It just says "New Bin Laden Tape" in the OP

Nothing about video.

The last audio tape was in January: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Videos_and_audio_recordings_of_Osama_bin_Laden#January_21.2C_2011

5. I wonder when he taped

it. The crazies on the right are already saying that OBL is not dead. They are hoping that will somewhat take the place of "he was not born in the USA."

9. There are some on the left saying the same thing, but either way that won't change the reality of

the fact that he is dead

17. Do you think there will be a picture or a video tape?

Edited on Mon May-02-11 04:45 PM by whathehell

My distrust of goverment has deepened so much

over the past decade that I won't feel "sure"

until I see a picture or a tape.

10. I guess it would not occur to you that intelligence doesn't share everything they have with the

public?

This operation was in its planning stage since August 2010, I wonder why they didn't tell us?

23. Audio or video?

Video would be the only thing I'd be interested in, with items in the picture that tied down the date.
