Time's Up

In case you'd forgotten, today marks Osama bin Laden's deadline for Europe to surrender:

" In an audiotape broadcast by two Arabic television stations on April 15, the al Qaeda leader offered a "truce" to European governments if they pulled out their troops from Iraq and Afghanistan.

"I offer a truce to them (Europe) with a commitment to stop operations against any state which vows to stop attacking Muslims," bin Laden said in a recording which CIA officials said they believed to be genuine.

He set a three-month deadline, presumed to expire on Thursday.

I wonder if France is getting antsy.
