Clown speaks again

WASHINGTON - The CIA determined Thursday that the voice on a tape claiming preparation for an al-Qaida attack on the United States was that of Osama bin Laden, an agency official said. The audio tape, played by the Arab network Al-Jazeera, was the first public communication from the terror group's leader since December 2004. "Following technical analysis of the Osama bin Laden tape aired today, the CIA assesses that it was the voice of Osama bin Laden," said the agency official, speaking on condition of anonymity because the official was not authorized to use their name; main points of this recent 10 minute joke tape were:

** Bin Laden offers truce
** Claims al-Qaida making preparations for attacks in USA
** Says heightened security measures are not reason no attacks since 9/11
** "Operations that need preparations, and you will see them"
