``I tell you, freedom and human rights in America are doomed. The U.S.
government will lead the American people in and the West in general into an
unbearable hell and a choking life.''

...

The Al-Jazeera interviewer pressed bin Laden on his responsibility for the
Sept. 11 terror attacks on New York and the Pentagon but got ambiguous answers.


``America has made many accusations against us and many other Muslims around
the world. Its charge that we are carrying out acts of terrorism is
unwarranted,'' bin Laden said in his first answer.

But moments later, CNN said, bin Laden took up the subject once more and said:

``If inciting people to do that is terrorism, and if killing those who kill our
sons is terrorism, then let history be witness that we are terrorists.''

well especially if the new improved 'patriot' act passes (after next terror attack) then i agree with bin laden that we americans will live in a surveilance thought crime society that can be described as a choking hell.

im no fan of bin laden, his cia association alone makes him despicable. and im sure he would slit my throat in a heartbeat.

but i cant disagree with what he says in this interview, from his perspective, of course. (somebody kills my family, im going after them too, thats all i mean.)

btw, if patriot act 2 passes i could theoretically be arrested for saying this.
