New Bin Laden Installment On Gaza, Lebanon? When Will He Start Podcasting?

Andrew Cochran of the Counterterrorism Blog analyzes the conflicting intel on a possible new bin Laden audio message on events in Gaza and Lebanon.  Apparently ABC News got wind of an announcement on a terror website - but there others contend that the usual indicators of a bin Laden message - digital drumrolls? - are not out there. 

There has also been a scolding message from a Saudi cleric basically telling Sunni connected Muslims that they should not support the Shi'ite Hezbollah - that Allah basically doesn't look favorably on these renegades.  Is Allah on the side of the stronger militia here? 

It is hard to tell if bin Laden is such a showboater of late that he will glom on to any group that is in the headlines and offer more commentary than any tele-evangelist or politiccian or new pundit.  He may also be foxier about using what's hot at the moment to his own ends - and figure that Allah will understand all... one has to wonder when he will get into podcasting...
