In a continuation of the Osama bin Laden audiotape aired by Al Jazeera in December, in which the terrorist leader offered the US a truce, the world's most wanted man said he has "sworn to only live free."
Bin Laden accused the US military in Iraq of being as "barbaric" as the deposed Saddam regime, speaking of "oppressive measures adopted by the U.S. Army and its agents (which has reached) a point where there is no difference between this criminality and Saddam's criminality."
"The reality shows that the war against America and its allies has not been limited to Iraq as [Bush] claims. Iraq has become a point of attraction and restorer of energies," he said.
America is clearly far better off having Islamist terrorists "restore their energies" and travel to Iraq to die, than it would be if they were using those energies here.
Also, we are still waiting for bin Laden to import his humanitarian programs, of which Senator Patty Murray (D-WA) spoke so fondly in 2002, to Iraq, and begin "building schools, building roads, building infrastructure, building day care facilities, building health care facilities," as she believes he has been doing "in many countries that are riddled with poverty" for "decades."
