New Bin Laden tape ’still on embargo’

At least one ‘new’ Bin Laden video, said to be in the possession of the Arabic televsion network Al-Jazeera, is nearing the end of an embargo allegedly enacted at the pressure of U.S. authorities, though the tape may still be withheld.

The site reporting on the video, TrackingTerrorism.com, told RAW STORY in private correspondence that they are respecting the embargo. They have been tracking unconfirmed reports for more than two days.

The tape is said to be currently leaked online on a few remote and clandestine Al-Qaeda websites. Militants are already praising its release, making comments such as, “soon the American People will see the edited version,” the site reports.

The site’s editors saying they hope to make the full tape’s presence known to the national media before it is broadcast, saying the last broadcast only included a fraction of the entire tape, the remainder of which was largely ignored by the American media.

“We hope that by making the tape’s existence known publicly prior to the national media, that we do indeed see the entire tape as it could be crucial to the future of the United States,” they say. “We do not believe in suppression by the US Government in something as significant as an Osama Bin Laden tape.”

“Currently, the airing of this video tape is in the hands of Al-Jazeera,” they add. “While it is very likely that they may air the tape immediately following the embargo, it is also likely that they’ll sit on it for another day or two. We have again attempted to speak with Al-Jazeera regarding the video tape, but however they appear to be on a gag order and cannot release any additional information about the tape’s existence.”

Al-Jazeera has neither confirmed not denied they are in possession of any new tapes from the Saudi militant.
