"Tuesdays with Osama"
Is may be the final insult from the "dead or alive" Bush administration: the 9/11 murderer they vowed to bring to justice -- before suffering war ADD -- is not only still a free man but has also inked a book deal:
ISLAMABAD: World's most wanted fugitive, al-Qaida chief Osama bin Laden is reportedly writing a book on the struggle of his terrorist network that dispenses money, logistical support and training to radical groups in over 50 countries.
The book, being written in Arabic, will later be translated into English. Bin Laden decided to write the book to counter "propaganda" against al-Qaida, Geo News channel reported.
Bin Laden is writing the book with the assistance of a "young man with a Middle Eastern background who will later translate the text into English", the channel reported. The book will reportedly highlight atrocities allegedly being committed on Muslims by the Western world.
Call me crazy, but I think bin Laden may have a hard time finding a U.S. publisher. You know what -- I'd actually like to see bin Laden's memoirs published here -- free speech and all that -- so they could sell zero copies, maybe in conjection with donations to charities of those innocent people he so brutally murdered here.
On the other hand, Osama might pose on the cover with mangy but lovable mutt. In that case, it could be a runaway best seller.
* Fixed the first version, which was poorly translated from the original Arabic.
