OSAMA BIN LADEN IN MAKE-OVER SHOCK!
I note that since I have been away al-qaeda have wheeled out the madman they keep in a cave for his annual blatherings.
Most media reports, I also note, concentrate on Osama's neatly cut and dyed beard that make him appear younger and in good health.
See pictures above. The one below is from 2001, the first one is from the latest video of him.
I'm sorry, I hope I'm not being terribly insensitive here, but there is no way that the only thing he's had done is a haircut. I know in the older picture the lighting is not good and that's a very bad choice of hat, but the man's lost ten years!
Me thinks he's had a little 'work' done, if you know what I mean. And I reckon he's wearing a bit of slap. And somebody is definitely advising him on his clothes now. See how his white and beige outfit works together with the dark brown background to lift the colour of his face?
I wonder what it is. Obviously, a Commander-in-Chief must never look physically vulnerable before his troops. An ageing, fragile soldier is no soldier at all. But, really, he's gone to so much effort! Do you think maybe it's a woman? Or the media attention finally gone to his head? Or maybe he's just been watching too many episodes of Ten Years Younger?
Anyway, now we've seen him again I think we can all agree that he can fuck off back to his cave for another year.
UPDATE:
The Hitch thinks that it's not only Osama's appearance that's had a tidy-up; "Everything he says about the war in Iraq, right up to the affected concern for the civilian and military casualties, is presented as if he had hired one of Michael Moore's screenwriters as a consultant."

. . . when all this time, Mr. Bin Laden has been hiding out in British Columbia's Gulf Islands, having assumed the identity of a semi-retired famous children's entertainer. I kid you not:

Maybe (what with him being a criminal mastermind with global domination fantasies who lives in an underground lair), he's living the cliche and had himself cloned a few times. This video could have been by one of the slightly younger models.
Or... maybe he's got some kind of time-machine and he travels forward a few years to find out a few facts, and then travels back again into his youth to record his next messgae. If I had a time machine that is exactly what i'd do.
Actually, there's a guy works down the chip shop swears he's Bin Laden. Perhaps he does the children's entertainment in his spare time.

Nah - it's probably just Elvis trying to throw you off the scent.
RIP the great Kirsty MacColl!
