Bush used to say about bin Laden that "he can run, but he can't hide." It appears that the opposite is true: his health is poor, so he can't run, but he sure hides well, well enough that Bush can't find him. He is too sick to appear on camera, but he is still issuing videos. His latest threatens revengence against the civilized world for the behavior of Danish cartoonists. He sees the cartoons as part of a Papal crusade, and he warns that there will be terrible consequences.
If you want to see what he's so upset about, do an image search for danish prophet cartoon. My view is that bin Laden is way out of line here. There is another thing that Bush says in private that comes closer to the truth: "Fuck'em if they can't take a joke."
