Osama Tape
- In the videotape, which was released to the media Friday, bin Laden urges Americans to embrace Islam. According to a transcript acquired by The Associated Press, bin Laden tells Americans they should convert to Islam if they want the war in Iraq to end.
From Captain's Quarters, we get this analysis:
- Isn't that sweet? If we just agree to live as slaves under our new Taliban masters, we can finance our homes at a flat 2.5% fee. Think of how liberating that will be! Well, except for the burqas, the barbers, the end of music, dancing, Judaism, Christianity, voting, the press, the 13th-21st centuries, science ...
He says to the American people, "you made one of your greatest mistakes, in that you neither brought to account nor punished those who waged this war, not even the most violent of its murderers, [former Defense Secretary Donald] Rumsfeld…"
"You permitted Bush to complete his first term, and stranger still, chose him for a second term, which gave him a clear mandate from you -- with your full knowledge and consent -- to continue to murder our people in Iraq and Afghanistan. Then you claim to be innocent! The innocence of yours is like my innocence of the blood of your sons on the 11th -- were I to claim such a thing."
Bin Laden says President Bush's words echo "neoconservatives like Cheney, Rumsfeld, and Richard Perle."
"People of America: the world is following your news in regards to your invasion of Iraq, for people have recently come to know that, after several years of tragedies of this war, the vast majority of you want it stopped. Thus, you elected the Democratic Party for this purpose, but the Democrats haven't made a move worth mentioning. On the contrary, they continue to agree to the spending of tens of billions to continue the killing and war there."

Court Upholds $17M Verdict For Police Chase, Crash
Verdict Largest Connected To Police Chase In Chicago History
The Illinois Appellate Court on Friday upheld the largest police chase verdict ever against the Chicago Police Department.
The chase happened on the Eisenhower Expressway in May 2001. A Chicago police officer lost control of his squad car while pursuing a homicide suspect.
The police car then slammed into a car driven by 52-year-old Vernon Hudson, who is now paralyzed.
A jury awarded Hudson $17.6 million.
"The appellate court stated the city is not immune nor is it discharged from this reckless conduct in the manner it chased the suspect the night Vernon Hudson was injured," said Antonio Romanucci, Hudson's attorney.
Two years after the crash, the Chicago Police Department revamped its chase policy.
The news is wrong again,the driver was a female not a male.
I have a gut feeling that the balloon is going to go up, very soon.
It’s this stuff that should bring everyone together and make everyone understand why we are at war. However; the opposite will happen and more Americans will be divided over this matter. This is not going away anytime soon and we need to be in more countries then just Iraq and Afghanistan. God bless all our troops and especially our own cpd people fighting for us so we can sit in our nice home and blog about our freedoms!!
Taken from the NYPD Rant,could just as well have been the CPD under Phil Cline's Reign.
ANOTHER CASUALTY IN RAY KELLY'S POLICE DEPARTMENT
I regret to inform the readership of this board of the confirmed death in the law enforcement community.
While tragic, the patient was ill for a very long time and the passing, while tragic, was not unexpected.
The victim is known my many aliases but shall be referred here as simply "The Ability To Make A Decision."
Many younger cops and supervisors may not have remembered our friend or even knew him. Certainly, even many higher ranking officers in the Captain ranks and above barely remember him. However, some older cops who know what it is like to walk a post and "own" that sidewalk for 8 hours might recall him.
There was a time when cops were cops, and could make decisions independent of supervisory direction or prodding. And those decisions were usually sound and correct. They were not afraid to place bracelets on a skell, or move a problem person along, or establish a sense of law and order on their assigned post because, as we recall in our military's general orders, they were able to "Take charge of their post...and all government property (and business) in view."
Then at some point- I'm not sure when exactly, but I think in the past 10 years or so- our friend Decision Making became ill. The cops ceased to be cops and left the thinking to the sergeants to do. And they did, for a while. They identified crime trends, evaluated the strengths and weaknesses of their subordinates until they too somehow lost that quality. The Decision Making found the trusted lieutenant. The Platoon Commander, after all, really ran the precinct. He would set the posts, the assignments and take charge of the precinct and all of those under him. But, the lieutenants, like the sergeants and cops came down with that disease as well, and it was left to the captain- the C.O., the Duty Captain, et. al. to take charge of the subordinate ranks. Now, with the captains becoming Yes Men- those with stars in their eyes and fearing failure and gasp, NEVER getting promoted- they defer to Chiefs and will always of course defer to the one man who truly runs the show on every level- our Grand Poobah of Policing, RWK. He has taken from each and every rank the ability to evaluate, make a decision and most importantly, defend those decisions in an intelligent and rational manner. We do not have any true leaders left- those who were are tired of the fight, and those who never were leaders run the show through scare tactics, bullying and intimidation. Intimidation below them, to the nasty rude cop on the street to the obnoxious supervisors on every level who are, in turn, subjected to equally nasty people above them.
So, I take a moment to pay final respects to Decision Making, who was known by some as Leadership, or Integrity or Courage. You will be missed in Ray Kelly's Police Department. Rest in peace, old friend.
STOP THE CORRUPTION IN THE EXECUTIVE MANAGEMENT! FEDERAL MONITORING NOW!!!
Bad police wreck at Division and Cicero being reported.
Looks like Tom Dart is doing things right,I wish the other county pols would act like him:
Sneed hears Cook County Sheriff Tom Dart is continuing to buck the trend as a public official.
• • To wit: Dart, who refuses to plaster his name all over buses and county buildings, is not only proposing a 2008 zero office budget increase, but . . . he's topping that.
• • The topper: Dart says his top salaried employees will return their cost-of-living salary increases so that lower-paid office employees can have salary parity with others.
Osama says the EXACT same things as Cindy Sheehan. Is any more proof needed that Osama learned the lessons of the Liberal Democrat surrender in Viet Nam and now uses the Democrats and their willing accomplises in the Media as a tool?
Dear Osama,
If you want an end to the killings, all you have to do is get killed. Isn't 'allah' worth it to you? To save your people by sacrificing yourself (ala Christ)? Oh wait, you're a coward, so you won't. Well, enjoy the Bunkerbusters, douchebag.
Signed,
The American People
While I respect the ones who honorably defend my country and home, I don't do so blindly. Being aware of issues and proficient with my self-defense and confident in my abilities to handle a weapon is what really helps me sleep at night.
Looking at the way things are handled in this day and age should warn you to do the same.
So Blago and Daley can keep company with felons but no one else can..?
Bush invades Irag when we didn't complete the job in Afghanistan, where the Terrorist were housed and trained. Then inact more laws that we don't need when the laws that were in place did alert us to what was to happen. Then the CIA, FBI and the rest of the weekend warriors drop the ball...big time!
These piece of shit, extremist Islam thugs are getting the satisfaction of changing our lives forever. Looking over our shoulder, being oppressed by are own Government in the name of protection. These bitches need to be put in check. The Chicago way! You kill one of ours, we kill bunch of yours...Finish the fucking job, then deal with the other countries in that region when we're through. Oh, by the way...Fuck you too Pakistan!
How do you hide a Saudi who is over six feet tall and has the same Kumar at the White Castle look on his face?
While we argue as to how to protect ourselves, these desert biatches are constantly chipping away at us. I say Afgahnistan would make a great water park. Let's start with making it a parking lot!
Fuck anyone who believes in a religion (ISLAM) who claims that they should slay anyone who doesn't believe along with them!
If you practice that faith and don't believe in this to this extreme, then welcome to America and join us in ridding the world with terrorism.
Osama Bin Laden is a bitch!
And so's his momma!
You will never win in Iraq or Afghanistan with the liberal system in place here. They will not let our troops do their job.
Barack Obama Bin-Laden says---
Infidels! How dare you question and ridicule my mentor. When I am elected Califate of the soon-to-be Islamic States of America, you will submit or pay the deadly price to Allah.
Who cares?Bush and Cheney have both been quoted many times stating that bin Laden is NOT a priority.If they don't give a flying fuck about him,why should I?
Not only should Osama run. He could probably win the democratic nomination with the liberals in this country.
For anyone thinking of voting for Guilani:
Giuliani on Illegal Immigration
"Glenn, it's not a crime. I know that's very hard for people to understand, but it's not a federal crime."
Osama is back is that osama obama will the real osama please step up! We are ready for any terror related things to happen, with our junk vehicles and no police! Thanks to daley we are very ill prepared for anything! Thanks agian daley for nothing! Just watch out for each other CPD we are all we have!
Ol' boy cleaned himself up a bit. Musta seen that commercial and took the advice of Hernandez and Chamberlin and got himself some Grecian for the beard.
Better look out ladies at Cubby Bear Afghanistan, he's on the prowl!
"The appellate court stated the city is not immune nor is it discharged from this reckless conduct in the manner it chased the suspect the night Vernon Hudson was injured," said Antonio Romanucci, Hudson's attorney.
Two years after the crash, the Chicago Police Department revamped its chase policy.
----------------------
It is reckless conduct to not know how to drive after a homicide suspect?
It is proof to me that the judges do not want people arrested. let the word out to the west side, rob and kill rich people. And officers do not chase, no matter what. Maybe the city can get sued for 40mil and reverse the chase policy.
Money = policy, not service not officer safety.
Off-the-record, and I bet SCC does not let this through, but:
Why no post on the Republican pervert from Idaho? If that had been a Democrat SCC would have commented within hours of it made public. I know it is your board, but a pervert is a pervert no matter their party affiliation.
4:01 AM (via the NYPD RANT)
Tragically true, even PROFOUND!
Go for a career change or what remains of our pension. Anyone who applies for the CPD is either a ne'er do well with no career opportunities, a masochist, fuckin' insane or all of the above.
This does not preclude entering law enforcement elsewhere where your dedication, courage, efforts and skills will be appreciated.
The CPD (and the NYPD) are no longer "sinking ships". The "ships" of these once proud big-city police departments are now resting at the bottom of the Mariana Trench (the deepest ocean location on planet Earth).
Back up your BLUE brothers and sisters and give the clueless and apathetic taxpayers, the lying, "politically correct" media whores and the terminally corrupt, spineless, arrogant muthafuckers who run this city the police force they truly deserve.
Can anyone tell me what these new zone sticker on parking meters mean?
i hope they charged the offender with mrs. vernon hudsons injurys.
anyone know any details regarding the officer hit by a car/car accident from cicero and division around 0030hrs on 08sep07? sounded serious on radio. any details? i think they were from narcotics.
Every single time the democrats beat the drum to surrender in the War on Terror, Osama bin Laden himself pops up to remind everyone just what is at stake:
OBL must be a Republican!
Osama should get in the democRAT primaries. He'd have a good shot at winning. He seems to be the architect of democRAT forign policy postions. Maybe lardass oprah will toss a fund raiser for him too.
PRICELESS: Ex district attorney Mike Nifong's jail intake photo in the paper today.
Ding dong the witch is dead!
This reminds me of the words of Lenon. He refered to the left in America as "usefull idiots."
>>Can anyone tell me what these new zone sticker on parking meters mean?<<
Hate to say this, but go to Chicagoist.com. They did a large post or two on this in the last few days.
I think the final answer was that its part of the experiment to allow people to start paying meters by cell phone.
I'm not a liberal but think about it for a minute - Bin Laden and Al Quaeda WANT a jihad with the "west"...mostly the USA. So some reverse psychology at play? Telling us to leave Iraq = hoping we'll stay becuz invading Iraq unifies the extremists. Our policy makers have given them a recruiting tool like no other. We should have stayed in Afghanistan and finished the job.
And, by the way, I'm tired of hearing "we haven't been attacked on U.S. soil since 9/11", "what we're doing is working". Do people really buy this bullshit? It was about a decade ago the last time they hit New York; what makes anyone think we haven't been hit because what we're doing is working? Yeah, you may break up a cell here and there but don't think Bin Laden and Zawahiri aren't looking to do something here. And, if they're directly involved (vs. the 'independent' cells) in the planning - like we saw Bin Laden was when he bragged on tape after 9/11 - then they'll make sure it's something BIG. And, Chicago's not ready.....neither is most of the country. But back to Chicago Cortez Trotter's little show and tell was a joke, OEMC is a joke and so......I guess the joke's on us.
Do you think Osama was invited to join Oprah and the gaggle of liberal hollywood scum at Barry obama's fundraiser?
Sgt (MK) from 016 to 019...good luck 019 you're inheriting another DOG!!! Guy's been on medical for 7 months with a "fractured" elbow....oh and he has furlough comming up 11a so...you'll see him right around Thanksgiving..which should give him at least 9 months on medical!! for ......a "fractured" elbow...suffered on St Paddy's day..
Speaking of perverts did'nt we elect a mayor that never paid taxes for 30 years, and was alleged and discussed on political shows of having a fondness for children.
Bin Laden wanted to surrender to the 2462 team,but they told him he'd have to come into 024 the Bears game was on in the tac office.
4:01 AM
I'm 20 and out with the NYPD next year. Meanwhile we got a "brain drain" going on with the younger guys. They all want to hire on with other agencies, particularly the Nassau County PD. Best working conditions, top salaries, less skells and thugs and appreciative taxpayers.
The NYPD is now scraping the bottom of the barrel for new jacks at only $25K to start.
It's hard to believe that the Chicago PD must live in the city limits.
By the way, thanks for taking that scumbag Sharpton out of Brooklyn.
PLEASE HELP OUT AND ATTEND THE 2ND MIKE METTE FUNDRAISER SEP 28 AT F.O.P.
I have been a suburban Det for 27 years.It was amazing to me to see the outpouring of genuine support for PO METTE at the last fundraiser.I am honored to help my CPD brothers and am honored to have met a brave,honorable young man.
I have had postive proffessional dealings with CPD, with 1 exception.
Approx a year ago my daughter,while attending grad school at Northwestern chose to move to Rogers Park.Within 2 days her apt had been burglarized on Jarvis.
The day she was burglarized she happened to see a squad and flagged down an officer named CLANCY.The officer said to her since the bad guy was gone she just needed to go home and call 311 and drove away.
My daughter,who is pro-police to the bone,went home and called 311,who switched her over to the 911 dispatcher.The 911 dispatcher took her info down and stated wait for a squad.
My daughter said after close to an hour she receives a cell phone call from a man purporting to be a Chicago Officer.The officer begrudgingly took her information and told her to write down some numbers.My daughter asked him for a police report and he told her if she wanted it she can come get it at a pawn shop at Ashland/Howard Street.
My daughter was furious at that point and asked me to meet her there,where low-and behold the original officer CLANCY is behind the bulletproof glass with his uniform on a hook and a wrinkled police report in his hand and a soldering iron the other.
I had let this go for a long time until the fundraiser when talk of a moron named CLANCY getting a DUI IN Iowa came up,is this the same softball?
What a proud moment it must be for the democrat party. An endorsement from the mass murderer, Osama.
A vote for a democrat is a vote for the things Osama Bin La din believes in.
Osama doesn't scare me- we created that demon. I'm more scared about my shrinking savings and retirement accounts being depleted because I live in Chicago!
Read the koran, it states that before starting a war on a people, they must offer them a chance to convert to islam. when they refuse (by not doing so) they are fee game to be killed in any way and fashion....
OBL IS DECLARING A HOLY WAR AGAINST US
Bush invades Irag when we didn't complete the job in Afghanistan, where the Terrorist were housed and trained. Then inact more laws that we don't need when the laws that were in place did alert us to what was to happen.
--------------------
The Taliban was removed from Afghanistan. We were alerted?
Your source has to be some left wing web site.

What, exactly, does this have to do with the CPD?
The new threat is Pakistan where Oasama is probably hiding out.
Police shooting in 003 yesterday? Anyone?
U.S. Studies Osama Bin Laden Video, CIA warns of Al-Qaeda plots
U.S. Studies Osama Bin Laden Video, CIA warns of Al-Qaeda plots
Posted: 08 September 2007 0350 hrs
WASHINGTON, DC: The US government said on Friday it was analyzing a copy of the latest video message from Osama bin Laden as the CIA warned Al-Qaeda was plotting fresh attacks on the United States designed to inflict massive casualties.
US authorities were examining a video said to be a message from Osama marking Tuesday's anniversary of the September 11, 2001 attacks on New York and Washington that killed nearly 3,000 people, a senior US official said.
"I can confirm that USG has the video and it is currently being analyzed," a senior administration official told AFP, referring to the US government.
The video, reported late Thursday by US-based monitors that follow militant websites, would be the first such appearance by the Saudi extremist since October 2004, when he threatened new attacks against the United States just days before a US election.
CIA Threat Assessment
CIA Director Michael Hayden meanwhile warned in a speech that the intelligence agency believed Al-Qaeda was planning new, large-scale attacks on US targets.
"Our analysts assess with high confidence that Al-Qaeda's central leadership is planning high impact plots against the American homeland," Hayden told the Council on Foreign Relations in New York. "Al-Qaeda is focusing on targets that would produce mass casualties, dramatic destruction and significant economic aftershocks," he added.
Original Discovery & Translation
From emergency.com
Up to date info and wtf are we doing about this? More secrets if the CIA is telling this much how much more do they not tell the public? Guess since dana cannot get security clearance he cannot get any info! Thanks daley how about someone at the top that has more than a GED? appease the bullshit revs, thats the ticket right?
Heres a great idea. When they post the colors at the opening of the democrat convention it should be a white flag. Very appropriate.
Idea.
Tell bin laden via mail, the US converted to Islam overnight.
Will he even know? He's in a cave.
The GREAT DECLINE IN CPD MORALE began just before Daley took office. Since then, it's been like a snowball rolling downhill into a full blown avalanche.
The adolescent triad of bed-wetting, setting fires and torturing animals is not limited to psychopathic serial killers.
It also has a high correlation with members of the Internal Affairs rat squad.
Concerning the police chase. I hope the City takes the case to the Supreme Court.
If one engages in a little legal research they will find that the Supreme Court will rule in the City's favor, ie. Harris v. Scott.
Aside from the feds, what would be the best county (not Cook) or suburban police dept. to look into?
I've only been on the job for 5
years, am in my 20's, love to do police work but enough is enough.
All I want is fairness, gratitude and respect for busting my butt locking up these mutts and helping good people.
Aside from the feds, what would be the best county (not Cook) or suburban police dept. to look into?
JOLIET. Great money, a take home car, affordable housing, great schools,and lots of work to do.
LIVING WITH TERRORISM IN CHICAGO;
As a resident of Chicago we are subjected daily to the threats of terrorism daily via our newscasts and we have grown immune
The threat doesn't come from a lunatic in a cave or mosque,it comes from the vile mouth of Jesse Jackson
Every time this demagogoue speaks with the help of the media,it is not to better his community.Pure and simple it is to profit his friends or family with implied threats of civil disorder.
Unfortunately the common practice is to just throw money at this dragon in hopes he goes away.
The impact on the city is substantial in that it is the lifeblood behind so many frivolous lawsuits brought against the Police Dept,THUS IMPACTING OUR BUDGETS AND BOTTOM LINES.
Can't someone just call his bluff and say "Don't say it do it,burn the city down and show your real colors"
5:47 AM
I'm locked in to this dept. with a couple years til I grab my pension and get out of this town. I went to the rally for Mike Mette and heard a lot of good things about Cmdr. McEnerney, the organizer from Niles PD. Everybody says he is a prince. With a few bosses like him, who knows. The newer guys should jump ship from miles below sea level and get out before it's to late.
If McEnerney was CPD, they would bust him down to lt. working 590 a couple hours drive from home.
That worthless Donahue and FOP are in Daley's hip pocket.
We should fight for the Homeland of Israel.
Israeli's are as American as we are.
Next: Iran
anyone know any details regarding the officer hit by a car/car accident from cicero and division around 0030hrs on 08sep07? sounded serious on radio. any details? i think they were from narcotics.
9/08/2007 12:23:00 PM
They were an 06 car. Not nartcotics, and not badly hurt. The driver walked away and the passanger needed help getting out- but wasn't hurt badly. Car destroyed, the two in the striking vehicle were grabbed in an alley not far from the scene.
Our society with it's short-term memory would think it's cool to put BinLaden on "Dancing With The Stars".
Personally I'd pair him with Merideth Baxter Birney.
How sad is this.
The US military/government/politicians can't find a guy that planned 9/11 after 6 years.
After Pear Harbor we beat a highly mobalized and motivated Japan in less time.
Thank You PC world.
We are being led by idiots.
No one ever questions how this guy is still free.
Why no post on the Republican pervert from Idaho? If that had been a Democrat SCC would have commented within hours of it made public. I know it is your board, but a pervert is a pervert no matter their party affiliation.
9/08/2007 10:58:00 AM
What about Barney Frank and the young males he had in his apartment? You have a lot of nerve, all the crap the democrats get away with because the media is part of the Democratic party.
The Keesing Bandit says---
I think we should arrest Carlton Fisk and grill him until he tells us where Osama Bin-Laden is. By looking at that video, it's obvious that Bin-Laden has been using Carlton's hair dye.
Now, kees me you fool!!!
had let this go for a long time until the fundraiser when talk of a moron named CLANCY getting a DUI IN Iowa came up,is this the same softball?
Same "clincher". Pawn shop is still there. Same sold same old
Response to 9/8/2007 10:45am u better look at the comercial again. Chamberlin has been dead for 5 years. Its Clyde Bradshaw!!!!!
coldtype, the wheels came off your train years ago and your latest raving proves it.
The high level contacts with Saddam and al Queda have been proven to have occurred. Saddam was actively training upwards of a few thousand terrorists a month in his camps. Al Queda was looking to expand.
There were WMD's in Iraq. Unaccounted for weapons keep popping up, various coalition armies located upwards of 500 undeclared mustard gas shells, there were warehouses full of growing media and precursors for bio weapons, all ready to swing into action as soon as the sanctions lifted.
Saddam was not effectively disarmed and was in fact re-arming, thanks to the oil-for-food scandal that brought untold billions into Iraq, enabling Saddam to rebuilt almost 25 palaces while his people went hungry and re arm his military to the point that is was firing missiles at US planes daily.
And your source for the 5,000 dead children a month? Would that be the bought and paid for United Nations or Saddam's own state run hospital system? Regardless, that myth was debunked, destroyed and buried as Saddam propaganda over two years ago. Try to keep up here.
International Law was what Saddam was breaking. We had UN approval.
And calling the troops cannon fodder? Nice. Too bad you're banned here. Still. And for the foreseeable future.
to 12:41pm
I like Israel too; but the "chosen one" here and their politics suck!!
The "ones" here are a disgrace to the
Polish Jews who fought nazi tanks and machine guns w/pistols & molotuvs...
Aside from the feds, what would be the best county (not Cook) or suburban police dept. to look into?
-----------------------------------
Maybe Lake County Sheriff
This guy CLANCY is indeed the same guy. 20 + YRS OF 3-4 HOUR DAYS, and nobody has the balls to say anything.
Never on time and stold money from a guy on my team at the Christmas Party.
This bustout has been calling victimson his cell and doing casereports over the phone for years.
I don't know who he has dirt on but his level of nonsense is obscene.
Thank god I'm not on his watch and have to continuously cover up for him.
His bosses have to be in denial or clueless.
WTF ??? Why is that liberal to say that our President and Federal Security forces failed miserably in protecting us. With all that you should know by now, admitted by both sides, we were let down big time. Like someone else said earlier about Pearl Harbor. We responded swiftly and soundly. While this threat is different, it should have been met with greater and clearer presence directly to the immediate enemies.
Read the whole message I wrote moron !
You must be one of those 80% who do nothing and talk shit. I'm neither Liberal or Conservative. I'm an American who can't believe that six years has past and people have forgotten. This has not been answered for yet ! And, if you read or heard the news lately...Taliban is back. If you have talked to anyone who has been over in Afghanistan, you would know that our boys are fighting with one arm behind them and with little support. We had the World on our side. What happened????
Why isn't Osama's head on the wall of some VFW by now..., yet we were able to russle up Sadaam?
This is clusster fuck at it's best!
