The word Islam means "submission", or the total surrender of oneself to God.

Who gives a crap what bin laden says. He is a bitch and a coward. His own former personal bodyguards have said that. One living in Pakistan on Dis Times said during the Afgan Soviet war bin laden would hide and sob like a girl during fighting. As a matter of fact another former SF soldier from Egypt said the EXACT same thing.....He is nothing more than a soon to be dead coward, wanting to still feel needed.

I am not trying to police you or anything, but do you have any links stating that Bin Laden crys like girl during fighting?

I believe you can find at www.binladenlovescamels.com Unfortunately, I think the secret services shut that website down.

Here is a 7 page PDF of the transcript from Fox News.
Lots more in this one than the ABC transcript unless they've update theirs.

I'm curious... is there a requirement in Islam to offer 'salvation' before attacking an opponent?

There is no additional information provided in the ad, and it closes with the words, "Soon -- God willing," written across the screen and repeated several times.
From what I counted in the video clip that phrase was shown three times at the end. Reminds me of other recently released videos (of which I can't find links to immediately...will go search some more).
(7-13-07) Signal to Attack? Worries Over Latest al Qaeada Tape
Zawahiri:
Have I not conveyed? Oh God be my witness.
Have I not conveyed? Oh God be my witness.
Have I not conveyed? Oh God be my witness.
(7-14-07) Newly Released Bin Laden Video Calls for Martyrdom
Osama:
I would love to attack and be martyred,
then attack again and be martyred,
then attack again and be martyred.
And now we have the third:
Soon -- God willing
The video was obtained early yesterday by U.S. intelligence officials and was first made public on the Web site of the SITE Institute, a D.C.-based nonprofit group that studies terrorist organizations. The circumstances of its release were unusual: No copy of the video had appeared on Islamic Web sites as of yesterday, as has been the norm for past al-Qaeda videos. A spokesman for SITE declined to comment on how it obtained the most recent video.
