Bin Laden compares US "barbaric" acts to Saddam's

DUBAI (Reuters) - Osama bin Laden accused U.S. forces of "barbaric" acts in Iraq comparable to those committed by Saddam Hussein, according to an audio tape first broadcast in January and posted on the Internet in full on Monday.

"The (U.S.) criminality has gone as far as raping women and holding them hostage before their husbands ... as for the torture of men it has now come to the use of burning chemical acids and electric drills in their joints," he said in the tape posted with an English-language voice over.

"Despite all these barbaric methods ... the mujahideen are strengthening and increasing by the grace of Allah," he said.

The tape, whose authenticity could not be verified, was posted on the Internet by the al Qaeda media group al-Sahab.

3. I hope they got a better Osama impersonator this time
I believe the last tape experts think Osama really did was right after 911, when he denied an al Qaeda connection. If you watch "Loose Change Two", you'll find even more interesting facts about Mr. bin Laden.
