Two things about this article struck me. First, it's not Osama talking. Second, the last paragraph I quoted from the article: "If you continue the same policy of aggression against Muslims, God willing, you will see the horror that will make you forget what you had seen in Vietnam."
Says to me that Osama has got to be dead by now, and, even the damned jihadists have picked up the "worst thing since Vietnam" monicker beloved by the left wing media.
Enough of my spin, here's the article...

Al-Qaeda 'blames Blair for bombs'
Osama Bin Laden's lieutenant Ayman al-Zawahri has warned London will face more attacks because of Tony Blair's foreign policy decisions.
His comments were made in a videotape which was broadcast on Arab satellite channel al-Jazeera.
The al-Qaeda deputy said: "Blair has brought you destruction to the heart of London, and he will bring more destruction, God willing."
Mr Blair denies his policies provoked the 7 July bombs, which killed 56.
Al-Zawahri also warned the US that Iraq would be worse than Vietnam.
Downing Street refused to comment on the latest al-Qaeda tape.
Some critics, including MP George Galloway, said the war in Iraq had helped to spark the attacks on London.
But Mr Blair has said the Iraq war is merely an excuse for those who want to attack the UK.
He has acknowledged Iraq is being used to recruit terrorists, but insisted the roots of extremism were much deeper.
In the tape al-Zawahri - who wore a white tunic with black turban and posed next to a rifle - also warned other nations to leave Muslim lands to avoid further violence.
And he said: "What you have seen, O Americans, in New York and Washington and the losses you are having in Afghanistan and Iraq, in spite of all the media blackout, are only the losses of the initial clashes.
"If you continue the same policy of aggression against Muslims, God willing, you will see the horror that will make you forget what you had seen in Vietnam."
