People here were so kind to pointout "blowback" to the US.
That being the unintended consequence of an action.
Targeting innocents will have consequences. OBL praising bombings of civilian targets will have consequences. To imagine that endorsement, for any reason, of the rampant bombings that are spreading like wildfire throughout the world would not have ramifications is naive. The more he invokes the name of Islam the more he assumes the mantle of leadership of the entire religion. Endorsement of the same tactics by the Palestinians seems to further corroborate the fact that ANY means to achieve an end is acceptable.
Go back to the picture of that gooney happy smiling Bali Bombing suspect. This is what is accellerating throughout the world with your tacit approval. Well done!

Why is it that ppl fear major threat caused by OBL but don't see a major threat when people in other countries are threatened by democratic states.
The Audio tape is as much valid as the other accusations by the States on Iraq and other countries.
