Here’s a side-by-side video of Osama bin Laden –2004 and 2007:
The video on the left is Osama in 2004 from YouTube and the video on the right is from today by the BBC.
OBL was more animated in 2004- more movements.
Today he looked a little stiff.
Osama’s last video in 2004 was released just days before the 2004 election. Some pollsters believed it gave President Bush a six point boost over Vietnam antiwar protester John Kerry.
