Why are the translations of OBL's speech so different?

the Slate article below references this. But the word for word translations are much different. Seems strange. Also, the mention of Palestine and Israel was cut down in the Times version. hmm.

Great article.

The Times is run by Jews who want everyone to believe Americans would be under attack regardless of Israel. A disgusting example of the press twisting the truth to meet personal goals. At least the Slate has the guts to report on this.

VOR: America would be under attack regardless of Israel. It does not take a genius to see this.

Whatever your belief is on this issue, you can't misquote people to promote that belief. Especially if you're part of the press.

And the NYT is better than the Post or the Daily news, since it doesn't leave your hands all inky!

Not to mention that the Post and Daily News are just daily tabloids that look like newspapers.

Am I supposed to change my mind now because someone has a different opinion?

Do you really believe that the Gulf War, which brought American troops to Saudi Arabia and the embargo to Iraq, had anything to do with the defense of Israel?
