Al-Jazeera broadcast Thursday what it called a previously unshown video in which al-Qaida chief Osama bin Laden is seen meeting with some of the Sept. 11 hijackers. The station did not say how it obtained the video, which was produced by As-Sahab, al-Qaida's media branch.The video showed bin Laden sitting with his former lieutenant Mohammed Atef and Ramzi Binalshibh, another suspected planner of the Sept. 11, 2001, suicide hijackings.
Atef, also known as Abu Hafs al-Masri, was killed by a U.S. airstrike in
Afghanistan in 2001. Binalshibh was captured four years ago in Pakistan and is in U.S. custody, and this week President Bush announced plans to put him on military trial.In the video, bin Laden was wearing a dark robe and white headgear walking in a mountainous area. He smiled as he greeted several men, which the tape said were Sept. 11 hijackers.
Hopefully that will shut up the folks who claim that the WTC as brought down by a government plot -- including the Democrat candidate for Congress in Florida's 15th Congressional District, Bob Bowman, who claims that Dick Cheney did it.

Not much motivation for this guy to shut up when he's dealing with a vice-president who lied repeatedly about Saddam's connection to Al Qaeda, and who proved his absolute ignorance by asserting the Iraq insurgency was in its last throes in 2004-and refusing to apologize for it or correct himself as recently as a few weeks ago.
Conspiracy kooks or warmongers--I find the former more endearing.

"You are either with us, or you are with the terrorists." Those were teh words of a great man five years ago.
And we know your choice, Ken. You've expressed it often enough.
