Notice in the first video Osama is not wearing a ring on his right ring finger. On the other two videos he is wearing a ring.
Maybe nothing, but I wonder if it signifies anything.

You'd think if he really planned it, he'd setup a nice camera like all th recent tapes, and blast the west accrediting himself for the attacks.
Once again why is the only tape weve gottena grainy blury inconclusive edited feature?
Why did we have to stumble onto this tape, why didnt osama release a crisp clean copy threatening us more?
How did binladen escape afghanistan on horses, when our jets, helicopters, uav's, spec ops, the northern alliance and various other footsoilders had him in there grasp?
It doesnt make any sense at all for binladen to be releasing these tapes. Because all they serve to do is HELP the administration.

Just because I question the "Bin Laden" in this particular tape, doesn't mean I don't believe he was part of 9/11 or that he is a terrorist, what it means is that knowing and seeing all that we do regarding this man, this tape is still highly suspect even with your explanation of fuzzy and grainy quality and bad pixelization or whatever technical word you want to give it.

Even if you believe that he had something to do with 9/11, but you don't believe that person is Osama Bin Laden, its understandable that you want to believe he is a fake...because...
1. Osama is dead and the Bush administration needs a boogeyman to keep this WOT going for their aims.
2. Osama is captured, the rest same as first line.

They say they didn't expect the whole towers to fall, just the ones that are above the impacts. If the planes could have hit far below, they believe it the floors above those impacts would go down too in their thinking.

This ain't the only video, theres one in 2004 where he explains why he and his followers attacked on 9/11 and explains the justification for it.

This ain't the only video thats blurry, there are other tapes, but this one is really bad enough to make his face look fat and his nose small enough to make conspiracists to use his ugly image to make him a double and not a real person.
Why did we have to stumble onto this tape, why didnt osama release a crisp clean copy threatening us more?
Why shouldn't we have gotten the tape, Al Qaeda was freaking running away. He has made a couple of videos threatening the U.S. since 2001 and now. Look it up!!!!

Ever heard of geography?
It doesnt make any sense at all for binladen to be releasing these tapes. Because all they serve to do is HELP the administration.
Or it makes sense to remind the American people and the world that Al Qaeda is still alive and wants to keep putting fear, and remind them whats the reason for their existence.

So why would binladen come on tape saying its his idea?

Deltaboy out of curiosity for various reasons,
Do you beleive alqaeda soley pulled 911 off?
And that the admin had a right to go into iraq?
And that IRAQ is going good?

False, how did you make those assumptions? I never at anytime said Bin Laden is a fake.
That particular video, the confession one, the one with the guy who has a different forehead and eyebrow shape and different nose and beard coloring, who had a ring on and off in the same video, who says some questionable stuff.. is a fake.

So I shall talk to you about the story behind those events and shall tell you truthfully about the moments in which the decision was taken, for you to consider.
I say to you, Allah knows that it had never occurred to us to strike the towers. But after it became unbearable and we witnessed the oppression and tyranny of the American/Israeli coalition against our people in Palestine and Lebanon, it came to my mind.
The events that affected my soul in a direct way started in 1982 when America permitted the Israelis to invade Lebanon and the American Sixth Fleet helped them in that. This bombardment began and many were killed and injured and others were terrorised and displaced.
I couldn't forget those moving scenes, blood and severed limbs, women and children sprawled everywhere. Houses destroyed along with their occupants and high rises demolished over their residents, rockets raining down on our home without mercy.
The situation was like a crocodile meeting a helpless child, powerless except for his screams. Does the crocodile understand a conversation that doesn't include a weapon? And the whole world saw and heard but it didn't respond.
