Well, it's World Cup season, and along with Baddiel and Skinner, Osama Bin Laden has made another podcast. I had a look around the web, but couldn't see where you could download it from. So instead, had to read some roughly translated transcripts.

How disappointed I was.


"A new audio message purportedly by Osama bin Laden was broadcast today in which he eulogises the late leader of al-Qaida in Iraq, Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, as a "knight, the lion of holy war".

"The message emerged on an Islamic website and played alongside an old still image of Bin Laden and previously seen video footage of Zarqawi, who was killed by a US airstrike north-east of Baghdad on June 7."

Yak yak yak, and not a SINGLE mention of anything World Cup related. It's only the biggest thing going on at the moment, where has he been for the last month, a cave?! There didn't even seem to be any jokes! What kind of a podcast was this?

"But for those who refused [neutrality] and stood to fight on the side of the crusaders against the Muslims, then he should kill them whoever they are, regardless of their sect or tribe. For supporting infidels against Muslims is a major sin."

At the risk of sounding like the guy from 'Big', I don't get it. Maybe the translations were poor, and the Arabic version was Laden with puns and naughty double-entendres. Maybe the Meerkins heavily edited the mp3, and cut out his views on why he loves Nikki from Big Brother?

"Bin Laden effusively praised the Jordanian-born militant, who some saw as a growing challenger to Bin Laden's status as leader of the global Islamist jihad, often using rhyming couplets."

Rhyming couplets?? Where?! Were they too chopped, in order to fit on the Fox newsreel?

"There once was a man named Zarqawi..."

Damn! You'd need one serious rhyming dictionary to make a limmerick out of that badboy!

There once was a man named Zarqawi
Who tried to go on a safari
He shot at a lion
Who proceeded to try on
Zarqawi as his new human sari


There once was a man named Zarqawi
Who loved to eat calamari
It looked like a rash
When they caught on his 'tash
But we still confused him with Ghandi

There once was a man named Zarqawi
Who once attended a party
He came with his friends
Who were crazy with bends
But his guns were far more alarming

I like your efforts, but you can't tell me that'Zarqawi' rhymes with Ghandi!

How about:

There once was a man named Zarqawi
Who greeted the geordies with "Haweh!"
But he didn't like Jews
Because he heard in the news
That they worshipped a deity called Yaweh.

There once was a man named Zarqawi
He went to the pub with Mugabe
He got stuffed in a trunk
Whilst ridiculously drunk
And was shipped off to a cell in Zimbabwe

Zarqawi arrived pretty late
It must've been quarter past eight
But Nugabe returned
When the prison was burned
To rubble while Zarqawi escaped

Zarqawi met up with Al-Qaeda
A seriously strong bunch of fighters
How can we 'filtrate
Mugabe's strong gate?
By smashing through in a car like Knight Rider.

Zarqawi drove straighter and straighter
He made a hole in the wall like a crater
He carried a bomb
And with great aplomb
He blew up that evil dictator
