Bin Laden Compliments Michael Moore
2004-10-30
"It appeared to Bush," said bin Laden, "that a little girl's talk about her goat and its butting was more important than the planes and their butting of the skyscrapers. That gave us three times the required time to carry out the operations, thank God."
Al Qaida mastermind Osama bin Laden paid tribute to leading Kerry supporter, conspiracy filmmaker Michael Moore on Friday, by invoking a scene from his movie "Fahrenheit 9/11" to attack President Bush. In his first appearance on video in more than a year, the delusional terrorist leader described the segment in Moore's film where the president continued to read the children's book "My Pet Goat" to a Florida elementary school class after he got word that America was under attack. "It appeared to Bush," said bin Laden, "that a little girl's talk about her goat and its butting was more important than the planes and their butting of the skyscrapers. That gave us three times the required time to carry out the operations, thank God." Echoing Moore's complaint, the fugitive terrorist continued: "It never occurred to us that the commander in chief of the US armed forces would leave 50,000 of his citizens in the two towers to face these horrors alone at a time when they were most in need of him."

Moore has set the tone for Democrats this year since December - when he openly criticized Bush as a National Guard "deserter" while campaigning for Gen. Wesley Clark. In July, Moore was feted at the Democratic National Convention, where he was invited to sit in ex-President Jimmy Carter's box. Earlier this month, Moore began openly fundraising for Kerry during his speaking engagements. The Democratic Party filmmaker has yet to say whether he approved of bin Laden's use his movie as a vehicle to attack the president.
