Al Qaeda Leader Spent Weeks in USA
By
Paul L. Williams, Ph.D.
After years of speculation, the rumors finally have been confirmed.
Dr. Ayman al-Zawahiri and Khalid Sheikh Mohammed were not the only top al Qaeda operatives to spend some time in the U.S.A.
Osama bin Laden made the trek from Saudi Arabia to the land of the free and the home of the brave in 1978 with his first wife Najwa and his son Omar.
The account of the trip is reported by Najwa bin Laden, Osama’s first wife, in Growing Up Bin Laden, soon to be published by St. Martin’s Press.
Najwa describes towing her two babies to Indianapolis, Indiana, where she remained while her husband headed off for some shadowy business in Los Angeles with Abdullah Azzam.
Azzam, one of the founders of al Qaeda, established a recruiting office for the jihad in the al-Farooq Mosque at 512 Atlantic Avenue in Brooklyn. In a 1988 videotape, Azzam can be seen and heard telling a large gathering of black Muslims that “Blood and martyrdom are the only ways to create a Muslim society.” His remarks are punctuated by rapturous cries of “Amen” and “Right On, Brother” from the audience.

Amen? Sounds like infidel speak.
Did he visit Michael Jackson?
In the nineteen seventies Osama Bin Laden was seen on occasion at the Bin Laden/Bin Mahfouz compound in Houston, Texas in the company of his brother Salem Bin Laden (killed in a San Antonia air crash in 1988). Even then he was a little wierd.
The date 1978 used in the article must be a typo. 1988 is more like it. Bin Laden did not accompany Azzam until after the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan in December 1979.
I’ll bet he did visit Michael Jackson. I also suspect that bin Laden is operating a discount liquor and convenience story in suburban Maryland right now.
Or he might own a motel here in Texas; Maybe they have been looking in the wrong places for him....
Working on their act before the Laugh Factory opened.
I think I saw him the other day in his store. A tall foreign gentleman, hair slicked back with gobs of pomade. He kept checking himself out in the security camera-monitor as he lip-synced to “Brown-eyed handsome man”.
“her husband headed off for some shadowy business in Los Angeles”
If he spent much time in LA, that certainly explains the Jihad...
Thanks for that catch, ‘78 didn’t sound right to me, either.
Do you know the location of the Bin Laden/Bin Mahfouz compound in Houston?
Najwa describes towing her two babies to Indianapolis, Indiana, where she remained while her husband headed off for some shadowy business in Los Angeles with Abdullah Azzam.
He played a couple of seasons for the Lakers.

They pretend to be a “Hooters”...don’t believe them.
(That was hard to proof read. I hope I got it right.)

Shhhhhhhhh! It’s a secret.
