Very Curious about OBL truce offer regarding Iraq?
Why Iraq? To him it was driving the Jews and infidels out of:

1) Israel
2) Saudi Arabia
3) Afghanistan

Why would he make this call now, and all he asks for in exchange for truce is Iraq? Why Iraq now? Why only Iraq?










Do you think the CIA told him to say Iraq because it is the only one place where we are in real trouble and BushCo. is looking for a way out?

1. I guess many others question the timing as well.

and obviously it makes him look like a big man to the audience he's playing to. Iraq is in the headlines daily, its the poster boy for American interventionism/imperialism/stupidheadism. It would be stupid NOT to mention Iraq.

3. It's called "making you an offer you can't accept."
And I'm fairly sure the audience for this particular message is the Middle East, not the United States.
