A 'New' Mideast? W's or Osama's

George W. Bush's belligerent reaction to the bloody chaos roiling Lebanon, Gaza, Iraq and the larger Middle East underscores why Osama bin-Laden took the chance of releasing an "October Surprise" videotape before Election 2004. The CIA determined that bin-Laden knew that by denouncing Bush, the al-Qaeda leader could help Bush to a second term. Bin-Laden saw Bush's warlike tendencies as an asset in creating a radical "new" Middle East. July 24, 2006
