Straight off the heels of the Omar bin Laden interviews, in a feat of journalistic superiority, 23/6 has obtained an interview with the fugitive Osama bin Laden. Below is the transcript from that interview as well as a recent photo of the most wanted man in the world.

23/6: Let's get straight to the point, where has Osama been?

Osama: Osama bin Jammen!

23/6: Osama been jamming?

Osama: No mon, Osama bin Jammen! It be my new name, mon.

23/6: Why the sudden name change and the new accent?

Osama: I'd have changed it to Mohammed, but apparently dat causes a bunch of angry shit. I kid, it's part of my new philosophy.

23/6: New philosophy?

Osama: Peace be da journey.

23/6: Where has this new approach come from? Does it have anything to do with your son Omar?

Osama: No, Omar learned it from me, mon. One day I and I be walking through my cave plotting the death of da Great Satan, when all of a sudden, I see a ghost walk by. I fire my AK, but da ghost just keep walking toward me mon. He get close and I and I see it be none other than Bobby.

23/6: Bobby?

Osama: Bob Marley mon, don't be stupid.

23/6: The reggae artist?

Osama: Quit interrupting me story. Where was I? Oh ya Bobby be walking up to I and I and he start singing dis song. I never forget de song, Bobby go [Osama sings]:

I know you don't believe in no 70 virgins / Or else you'd have already gone / But let me tell you Osama you got it all wrong! So Osama mon / Here da answer mon / Gotta go Rasta mon / Smoke a little ganja mon / It'll make ya stronga mon / We all live a bit longa mon / Don't be no warmonger mon / Maybe play the bongos mon.

Then he go into dis bongo solo. You listen. [extended bongo solo]

23/6: I see, but what-

Osama: Don't interrupt I and I'm not done yet. [continues bongo solo]

After dat last beat he disappear with his phantasm bongos. But I tell you mon, he might have vanished into de air, but he left a pound of da icky.

23/6: Are you saying that he left you a pound of marijuana?

Osama: He be leaving me da taste of da virgin Mary Jane. And I knew right den dat I couldna let his message go unheard. And so with da help of dat white boy I turn an old Stinger tube into da Lung of Allah and we smoked da full pound! I and I sat on da floor of dat cave when Bobby came back and say "peace be da journey." Da rest be history.

23/6: So you have renounced violence?

Osama: Haven't jihad enough of dat violence mon? I know I and I have. I put it all behind me and live in da moment. Ganja akbar.

23/6: Ganja akbar?

Osama: You said it mon, ganja akbar. It's time to trod da path of enlightenment with Jah.

23/6: Could you repeat that?

Osama: I performing mine religious duty. Dank you for your time, and remember dat peace be da journey.
