BIN LADEN VIDEO IS AN OBVIOUS FAKE. I'm so tired of the faked bin Laden videos, that I didn't even bother to watch the one that came out just before the (2004 presidential) election. The little I saw on TV about it, lead me to believe it was most likely fake. However, after seeing it, I am 100% sure it is fake. 
Have a look at this frame from the video and ask yourself: How did the photographer obtain the footage for this video. The worst quality footage would have been obtained by using a cheap home video camera, but even the cheapest video camera takes much better footage than that seen in the video shown by al-Jazeera. So who would take a nice home video with their video camera, and then go to the trouble of deliberately messing it up, before handing it to the press. Why would they make the images smaller and much more blurry, before handing it to the press. Of course, they wouldn't. Of course, bin Laden would not mess up his own image, but someone faking bin Laden would want the video to be small and blurry so that it will not be clear that it is not bin Laden. There are lots of other give-aways, eg, (1) The press without fail just "assumed" that this video was legitimate, even though the person in it could have been just about anyone with a surface likeness to bin Laden. The fact that the press never questioned the tapes authenticity clearly shows that the press released the video, not bin Laden. (2) Clearly, this was a message timed to affect the American peoples electoral choice. Given this, bin Laden would have delivered his speech in English, NOT Arabic. Apparently, bin Laden speaks, reads and writes English (and even if he did not, he would have made sure the speech was delivered in English, so that there was no room for mistranslation). CONCLUSION: AN OBVIOUS FAKE. |
