We coulda' done that too ~ and Hussein ~ he had a couple of daughters.
They are so terribly enlightened in the Middle East you know ~ always something new!
I believe that a few years ago, Clinton let a plane full of bin laden’s relatives leave Florida. Correct me if I’m wrong.
well darn
Guess we know who was calling the shots on al Qaeda’s timing and target selection over the past 8 years
"It has long been believed that Iran has held in custody a number of bin Laden's children since they fled Afghanistan following the U.S.-led invasion of that country in 2001 most notably Saad and Hamza bin Laden, who are thought to have held positions in al-Qaida."
to use them as bargaining chips, if they needed leverage with the US.
“Guess we know who was calling the shots on al Qaedas timing and target selection over the past 8 years”
We knew already. This is just a little confirmation for the masses.
Al is notorious for causing havoc wherever they go. They could be ensuring that they have some control over the leadership to make sure that they do not cause trouble at home.
That was W.
Directly after 911 all flights in the US were canceled.
Except the one you mentioned. Clinton was NOT involved.
BTW, all of the Bin Ladens are not bad. They are, in general, our friends.
Osama is a bad one. Some families do have black sheep.
You’ve been watching too much TV.
“why would Iran be AGAINST al-qaida if BOTH of their goals were the same?”
Sunni (led by Saudi, al Qaida) vs Shia (led by Iran).
They kill each other AT LEAST as much as they kill us.
This is their middle ages, with massive wars between themselves. God forbid they ever got nukes. They ARE in the middle ages.
It’s not a crime to be related to Bin Laden.
Tyrants do it all the time. Stalin held Chiang Kai-shek’s son for 9 years and Mao’s son for 17 years. It is a bargaining chip.
“the enemy of my enemy is my friend”
temporary alliance, or “truce” between Iran and the shia-hating al Qaeda
that doesn’t mean that one friend (Iran) - in exchange for certain...”favors” to the other friend (physical sanctuary to al Qaeda VIP’s from US attack or capture) - doesn’t take control of the operation
Just look at what the europeans (and now under Barry, the USA) would be willing to do for Iran if Iran could guarantee it had a leash on al Qaeda’s top planners
Iran is Shiite and AQ is Sunni/wahabi. The scedaddled to Iran right before 911 and the Mullahs didn’t want them to infect their “perfect” Islamic Regime. The son we just ventilated (with extreme prejudice) earlier this year was also held there for a time until the smoke cleared. He went to Pak and we gave him a smack.
“Youve been watching too much TV.”
By this you mean???
Sorry, I thought you were the real Leo Farnsworth.
Apeaking of which....
Spme Bin Laden’s many sons were with him and have not been heard from for a very long time.......yet NSA and CIA have verified the audio tapes of bin Laden are authentic because of voice stress analysis.
What happens if a man’s son tries to impersonate him, could the son’s voice show similar patterns to the father?
Just asking.
One line at a time...
