Researcher Delves Into The Mind Of Bin Laden Through Terror Tapes

From FOX News:

For five years, a lone professor has painstakingly been translating and transcribing more than 1,500 audiocassettes in his personal search for revealing clues about the most wanted terrorist in the world: Usama bin Laden.

Flagg Miller, a professor of religious studies at the University of California at Davis, has been combing through never-before-heard audiotapes that once were in the Al Qaeda leader’s private library.

Al Qaeda terrorists have released numerous audio and video recordings of bin Laden since the Sept. 11 attacks, but the tapes in Miller's possession offer the first behind-the-scenes access to the terrorist’s private world. They reveal how he developed his anti-American sentiment and the progression of Al Qaeda's military strategy, warfare tactics, recruiting methods and training camps.

My Comment: Bin Laden's hatred to non-Muslims have been with him as a young man. These unscripted media productions appear to give an insight into the man. What I find shocking is that only a small percentage of his tapes have been analyzed. Considering that he is the most wanted man in the world, I would be throwing a considerable amount of manpower to find out what is the thinking of Al Qaeda's top man.
