Another bin Laden Tape, and the State of al Qaeda

Yesterday President Bush marked the fifth anniversary of the invasion of Iraq with a speech that mentioned Osama bin Laden twice, thereby offering a reminder that the man behind the attacks of September 11 is still free to plot against the United States. At the same time, bin Laden released another audio tape full of ominous threats to the European Union.
