Talking tough, a top White House official yesterday belittled Al Qaeda leader Osama Bin Laden as "virtually impotent," someone who can do little more than send videotaped messages.
"This is a man on the run in a cave who is virtually impotent other than his ability to get these messages out," Fran Townsend said on CNN's "Late Edition." "It is propaganda." (source)

Al-Qaida Says 2nd Bin Laden Video Coming
Sep 10, 10:29 PM (ET)
By LEE KEATHCAIRO, Egypt (AP) - Osama bin Laden will appear for the second time in a week in a new video to mark the anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks, presenting the last will and testament of one of the suicide hijackers, al-Qaida announced Monday.
Each year, al-Qaida has released videos of last statements by hijackers on the anniversary of the 2001 attacks, using the occasion to rally its sympathizers.
