Posted on 02/05/2008 1:52:57 AM PST by markomalley

(AGI) - Rome, Feb 4 – Omar Bin Laden, the 26-year-old son of the leader of al Qaeda, arrived in Rome yesterday. Tonight he will participate in the television programme 'Niente di personale' presented by Antonello Piroso, at 21:00h on La7. He arrived by airplane from Switzerland under close surveillance measures and followed everywhere by his two bodyguards. Omar Bin Laden stays in a hotel in the centre of Rome with his wife.

Yesterday he had dinner in a hotel close to the Vatican, after that he said he wanted to return to Italy to visit Vatican City. This morning the couple admired the Colosseum before doing some shopping in Via dei Condotti.

For some strange reason, this just doesn't sound like the best idea in the world.

For some strange reason, I have a feeling he'll be allowed to do so.

Is this the son married to the middle-aged Brit woman?
The article says he is staying with his wife. I wonder which one? If I remember correctly he already had a wife when he married the Brit.

I hope they frisk him thoroughly before letting him in.

I don’t know, I thought it was the former Saudi king that had 50 kids. Perhaps both of them do...

Yes. She's wife #3 and he's husband #6.

It’s a bad idea because then it would be like...How many thousands does your father need to murder to get a meeting with the Pope?

He is a publicity hog still trying to get into Britain via his rich old-enough-to-be-his-grandmother GF.

Best to simply ignore him, alternatively lock him or maybe let him pay around with John Kerry for a while.
