'Bin Laden' offers Europe truce

Bin Laden is widely believed to be still alive
Two Arab TV channels have broadcast an audiotape said to be from Osama Bin Laden in which he offers Europe a truce if it "stops attacking Muslims".

However, Spain, Britain, Germany and the European Commission have all rejected such a move, with EC President Romano Prodi saying there was "no possibility for negotiation under a terrorist threat".

Heh...I guess we haven't sunk quite that low here in Europe yet... Wink

Oh I imagine a majority of Europeans would vote to accept Bin Laden's kind offer.

I don't doubt it.  Interesting how France hasn't wieghed in to flatly refuse the offer yet.
No. Also France did so.
