Osama Bin Laden Releases Another Tape to Americans (Is This Another Posthumous Psych-Op?)

Apparently, Osama bin Laden has released another tape addressed to the American people, coincidentally entitled "An Address to the American People." Why does Osama always seem to release these tapes at the most convenient times? It is pretty crazy that Osama can release all of these tapes -- especially since it appears that he has been dead since 2001! Osama releases more posthumous tapes than 2Pac.

The tape appeared on As-Sahab, the Arabic-language Web site used by Al Qaeda to deliver its messages. The recording was reported and translated by the SITE Intelligence Group and IntelCenter, two groups in the United States that monitor jihadist Web sites.

SITE said the message, which was released on Sept. 13 and lasted 11 minutes, 20 seconds, offered reasons for Al Qaeda’s attacks in New York and Washington on Sept. 11, 2001, and advised how the conflict between Al Qaeda and the United States might come to a close.
