Bin Laden Offers Truce to Europe, New England Patriots

A recently-aired tape, believed to be the work of Osama bin Laden, offers a truce to the nations of Europe if they remove their troops from Muslim countries. "Whoever rejects this truce and wants war, we are its [war's] sons and whoever want this truce, here we bring it," the terrorist said.

The tape also revealed a few little known facts about bin Laden, when he offered additional truces to the New England Patriots and to golfers Tiger Woods, Mike Weir, and Vijay Singh. Confessing that he is a "major sports fan," bin Laden opened his remarks to the athletes with "Peace upon those who followed the right path." He then praised the Patriots and the professional golfers for "punishing their enemies" and for "enacting justice" on their competitors.
