Osama New Bin Laden Tape

I find 5 things interesting about this:

1. He is a fan of Noam Chomsky: "among one of the most capable of those from your own side"
   
2. He is concerned about global warming: "mentions global warming and "the Kyoto accord.""
   
3. He favors lowering taxes: "He also speaks to recent issues grabbing headlines in the United States, referring to "the reeling of many of you under the burden of interest-related debts, insane taxes and real estate mortgages; global warming and its woes...""
   
4. He's not a fan of the Democrats! Officials: Bin Laden tape criticizes Democrats, corporations. To be fair ... he hates Bush!
   
5. He must use "Just for Men" to color his beard! (Image above from CNN). Compare earlier image!
   

And here's the kicker ...

""To conclude," bin Laden says, "I invite you to embrace Islam." He goes on to say: "There are no taxes in Islam, but rather there is a limited Zakaat [alms] totaling 2.5 percent.”"

He favors a flat tax!
