CIA putting final touches on recording that someone may find soon

US intelligence officials believe Osama bin Laden made a propaganda recording shortly before his death and expect that tape to surface soon.

It is unclear whether the tape is audio or video, but a US official has said that intelligence indicates it is already working its way through al-Qaida’s media pipeline.

The official said the timing was coincidental and there is no indication he knew US forces were bearing down on him.
