HOLLYWOOD - Osama Bin Laden issued his first anti-American diatribe since the Writers Guild Union went on strike last November 5, warning Muslims against supporting Iraq's US-backed government. Bin Laden was able to issue the statement because his writing team is back under a special deal with the Union.
Al-Qaeda had been running reruns of Bin Laden's old anti-U.S. harangues for the past two months, but the ratings have plummeted, causing concern among executives of al-Qaeda's broadcasting division, including its president Abu Les Moonves.
Insiders say that Bin Laden personally arranged for the special deal with the union that allows his writing team to supply him with a full complement of anti-American invective and comedy bits, including his nightly "Top 10 List Why America is Dog Shit."
The deal gives Bin Laden a potentially enormous advantage over Iran President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, who has failed to broker any such arrangement with the union and now enters his third month without any fresh anti-American tirades.
