The Dark Lord in all his beardy glory
Usāmah bin Muḥammad bin `Awaḍ bin Lādin (arabic-سامة بن محمد بن عوض بن لادن)
Osama bin Laden (for those who don't want to grow old reading his full name)
Usāmah bin Muḥammad bin `Awaḍ bin Lādin (Arabic: أسامة بن محمد بن عوض بن لادن; born 10 March 1957), most often identified as Osama bin Laden or Usama bin Laden, is the founder of the jihadist organization Al-Qaeda.[2] He has been designated as a terrorist by scholars, journalists, analysts and law enforcement agencies. In conjunction with several other Islamic militant leaders, bin Laden issued two fatwa in 1996 and then again in 1998 that Muslims should force the United States and its allies to withdraw their military forces from the Arabian peninsula, by attacking American military and civilian targets.[13][14]
He has been indicted in United States federal court for his alleged involvement in the 1998 U.S. embassy bombings in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania and Nairobi, Kenya, and is on the US Federal Bureau of Investigation's Ten Most Wanted Fugitives list.
Although bin Laden has not been indicted[15] for the September 11, 2001 attacks on the United States, he has been reported to have orally claimed responsibility for them in the Times of India[16] and in videos released to the public.[17] The attacks involved the hijacking of United Airlines Flight 93, United Airlines Flight 175, American Airlines Flight 11, and American Airlines Flight 77; the subsequent destruction of those planes and the World Trade Center in New York City, New York; severe damage to The Pentagon in Arlington, Virginia;[18] and the deaths of 2,974 people excluding the hijackers.[19]Water coolers are EVILLLLLBin Laden believes that the restoration of Sharia law will set things right in the Muslim world, and that all other ideologies—"pan-Arabism, socialism, communism, democracy"—must be opposed.[39] He believes Afghanistan under the rule of Mullah Omar's Taliban was "the only Islamic country" in the Muslim world.[40] Bin Laden has consistently dwelt on the need for jihad to right what he believes are injustices against Muslims perpetrated by the United States and sometimes by other non-Muslim states,[41] the need to eliminate the state of Israel, and the necessity of forcing the US to withdraw from the Middle East. He has also called on Americans to "reject the immoral acts of fornication (and) homosexuality, intoxicants, gambling, and usury," in an October 2002 letter.[42]
Probably the most controversial part of Bin Laden's ideology is that civilians, including women and children, can be killed in jihad.[43][44] Bin Laden is anti-Jewish, and has delivered warnings against alleged Jewish conspiracies: "These Jews are masters of usury and leaders in treachery. They will leave you nothing, either in this world or the next."[45] Shia have been listed along with "Heretics, ... America and Israel," as the four principal "enemies of Islam" at ideology classes of bin Laden's Al-Qaeda organization.[46]
As a Wahhabi,[47] bin Laden opposes music on religious grounds,[48] and his attitude towards technology is mixed. He is interested in "earth-moving machinery and genetic engineering of plants", on the one hand, but rejects "chilled water" on the other.[49]
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osama_bin_Laden (in case this turns you on you can find more here but this is the part that interests me
(he actually took out 9 ISI operatives when they took out his bodyguard)However, during this time Iraq invaded Kuwait and Laden met Sultan, Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia, and told him not to depend on non-Muslim troops and offered to help defend Saudi Arabia. Bin Laden was rebuffed and publicly denounced Saudi Arabia's dependence on the US military. Bin Laden's criticism of the Saudi monarchy led that government to attempt to silence him.
So what do you think about his tactic not him personally you have to admit that he is pretty good at what he does,trained by the CIA,Saudi united some of the biggest terrorist organizations under one banner,some muslims consider him even a hero or Sajuk,but i am interested in what do you think about his tactic
