11/09/01 10:42 PM: Nuclear Osama?
Time for an update!
I have to say this is one of the funnier things I have seen lately regarding bin Laden.
CAIRO, Egypt, Nov. 9 – Osama bin Laden reportedly said he has nuclear and chemical weapons and might use them to respond to U.S. attacks, according to an article published Saturday in a Pakistani newspaper.
“I WISH TO DECLARE that if America used chemical or nuclear weapons against us, then we may retort with chemical and nuclear weapons. We have the weapons as deterrent,” Pakistan’s Dawn newspaper quoted bin Laden as telling a well-known Pakistani journalist in Afghanistan on Wednesday night.
The paper said that when asked where he got the weapons from, bin Laden replied: “Go to the next question.”
Right, sure, whatever you say. As a deterrent? Ok, I think its fairly clear he is making that up, if he had them, he would have already used them.
What else is new? Not much. Oh yeah, Chris Barr linked to my site, so here’s a link to him.
Good night.
