RIYADH: The family of Osama bin Laden has announced the death of one of the terror mastermind's brothers. In a full-page notice on Sunday in Al-Riyadh newspaper, the family said Thabet bin Laden passed away and the funeral is scheduled that afternoon in the holy city of Makkah. The notice said he died Saturday but did not give the cause of death or his age. Thabet bin Laden was one of 54 children born to Mohammed bin Laden, a poor Yemeni immigrant who started the family contracting business in the 1930s that grew into a multimillion dollar construction empire. The bin Laden family disavowed any links with Osama bin Laden in 1994, when Saudi Arabia stripped him of his citizenship after he called for the overthrow of the royal family.
It’s a shame we didn’t kill him...
They look like a Jihadist Brady Bunch posing against a Barris Brothers’ 1970 Lincoln pink pimpmobile. Hitler’s tunic for sale in left store window. Freaky photo.
Will Osama be in attendance at the funeral?
“will osama be in attendance at the funeral?”
Probably dressed like the nancy girl he is. And if he can’t make it, I’m sure his brother in arms, obama, will step up to the plate.
wow! First Joe Bin Laden, then John Bin Laden, Robert Bin Laden, John Jr Bin Laden and now Ted Bin Laden.
Something’s wrong with that family.
Maybe someone should stake-out the funeral, or is it Holder’s current intent to punish soldiers who cause distress at such somber ceremonies?
Thabet bin Laden....sounds like I'm listhping, doesn't it?
Semtex is the Koran-recommended load for safe family driving.
A Pox on Osama and his entire family.
His brother dies? Hope it hurts. Hope others are coming soon. Look out Osamma, we are close.
