Whatever. Have you ever noticed that every time they show an English translation of the Qur'an, they always show authoritave translations from two or three different people? Have you also noticed that each of those translations are slightly different and that sometimes one translation's nuance is only minutely different than another, but it carries a different meaning? Well, that's a fact of translating any language. So in this case, I would expect prominent Arab folks to be saying the tape was a fraud. Instead, they are saying that the US government's translation did not capture exactly how cold and evil Osama truly is. Why are they even more alarmed than we are? Perhaps it's because they have this kind of evil in their own backyard? Even the majority of Arabs are against Osama, Omar, and the Taliban.
