Bin Laden For Peace

"And thus I clothe my naked villainy
With old odd ends, stol'n forth of holy writ;
And seem a saint, when most I play the devil." ~ William Shakespeare

Osama bin Laden's son says he wants to be peace ambassador between the West and Muslims. He says his father is only trying to defend Islam.

"My father thinks he will be good for defending the Arab people and stop anyone from hurting the Arab or Muslim people any place in the world," he said.

He doesn't condemn his father for masterminding and funding terrorists attacks throughout the world, but he thinks there is a better, less violent way to accomplish his father's goals.

According to the Liberally biased AP, "Omar is convinced a truce between the West and al-Qaida is possible".

So, he and his British wife are going to sponsor a horse race.

My god, he sounds like a Democrat!

"My father is asking for a truce but I don't think there is any government (that) respects him. At the same time they do not respect him, why everywhere in the world, they want to fight him? There is a contradiction," he said.

How is that a contradiction? Oh, and by the way, we don't want to just fight him.

We want to kill him.

In my opinion, Omar Osama bin Laden, the child of Osama, is acting like ...well...a child. Does he really think the west is going to just forgive and forget his father?

He wants to broker peace and he wants his father to go free at the same time.

I wonder. Is Omar Osama bin Laden familiar with the old maxim, "You can't have your cake and eat it too"?

Osama offered a truce to the West in January 2006, but it was summarily rejected, and rightfully so. Osama seems to think he can get out of his predicament alive.

He can't.

There is no possiblility of a truce of any kind with bin Laden unless he turns himself in or is killed. One or the other. Or both.
