So al Qaida —

Start your day with TPM.

So al Qaida — or what’s left of it — releases a five-plus year old tape of bin Laden with two of the 9/11 hijackers as well as Ramzi Binalshibh, one of the baddies just transfered to Gitmo. Right in time for the president’s big kangaroo court role out.

If you didn’t know that bin Laden and Bush were the two polar opposites in the global battle between good and evil, you’d think the two were coordinating their media blitzes.

And on the subject of al Qaida, don’t miss James Fallows piece on bin Laden and Co. in the current issue of The Atlantic. Good stuff.
