Why Did Bin Laden Dye His Beard?

I don't know.
According to "Arabists" commenting on the cable news shows,
dyng one's beard is not common in the land of the blood cultist-moonworshippers.
Grey in the beard symbolizes wisdom.
Not in Bin Laden's case, of course, but generally.
Maybe he thought Whitney Huston would see the video, and he's
been watching the " Just For Men" commercials which promise that young
sex-Goddessses will drop dead at your feet, even if you're a terrorist, or
pushing your paltry possessions down the street in a shopping cart, and he
believes it.
By now most of us have seen the new YouTube offering by Bin
Laden.
I only wish I could get ahold of the dope he's doing. I'm
kidding. I'm already paranoid.
But seriously, aside from murdering innocent
women and children, what has this guy got going for himself? It's good that he drops in once in a while.
Maybe it will help find him.
And maybe it will reinvigorate the war on terror.
It couldn't hurt.

Osama bin Laden said in a new video marking the sixth anniversary of al Qaeda's September 11 attacks the United States was vulnerable despite its military and economic power, but he made no specific threats.
In his first video appearance for almost three years, the al Qaeda leader said U.S. President George W. Bush was repeating the mistakes of the former Soviet Union by refusing to acknowledge losses in Iraq.
In a sign that the almost 30-minute tape, acquired by Reuters Television from a web trawler in Europe, was made recently, bin Laden mentions new French President Nicolas Sarkozy and British Prime Minister Gordon Brown.
Its authenticity could not immediately be verified, although an excerpt seen by Reuters matched a still photograph carried by an al Qaeda-linked Web site which advertised the tape in advance. "Despite America being the greatest economic power and possessing the most powerful and modern military arsenal, and despite it spending on this war and its army more than the entire world spends on its armies, and being the major state influencing the world's policies ... 19 young men were able ... to change the direction of its compass," bin Laden said in the tape.
"The subject of the mujahideen has become an inseparable part of the speech of your leader and the effects and signs are not hidden. Since the 11th, many of America's policies have come under the influence of the mujahideen."
The video shows bin Laden sitting at a table dressed in white and cream robes and wearing white headgear.
Beneath him, a banner on the screen reads in English: "A message from Sheikh Osama bin Laden to the American people." Bin Laden appears tired and sallow, though his beard is much shorter and darker than in his last appearance, when it was streaked with grey. White House spokesman Tony Fratto said the tape demonstrated that "terrorists are out there and they are actively trying to kill Americans and threaten our interests."
