REVEALED: Bin Laden daughter’s letter addressed to Khamenei
A lArabiya ^ | Nov, 2, 2017

Among the documents related to former al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden, released by the CIA, is a letter reportedly sent by his daughter Eman to Iranian leader Ali Khamenei.

(excerpt)

Another document, sent by al-Haj Osman (as he called himself) to Maulawi Azmari, a prominent al-Qaeda leader, sheds light on Iran’s support for al-Qaeda operatives. This finds mention in Bin Laden’s correspondence and reveals his role as the link between Iranian intelligence and al-Qaeda.

In the letter, Osman mentions the details of the return of some elements of the organization to Iran to collect funds and fighters and to communicate with the Iranian intelligence.

According to her, after her brother Saad escaped from prison and told them about the tragic time spent in Iranian prisons, that led to deaths, and psychological disorder, they demanded again that the Iranian regime release the intermediary of scientists and dignitaries of the region.

“But the Tehran government continued procrastination for six years. They held them hostage to extort my father, and instead of releasing them it demanded that al-Qaeda in Iraq stop its fight against forces and militias loyal to the Tehran regime,” she writes.

There were rumblings in the press years ago after 9/11 the AQ had their families in Iran’s city of QOM. I am sure everyone knows. Just as important as regime change, nuclear weapons shut down is the AQ angle when taking over Iran.

A Saudi-owned paper publishing an article linking Iran to the Saudi Osama bin-Laden somehow does not seem very convincing when it is in the Saudis’ interest to promote tension between the USA and Iran.

The Saudis may have their own agenda, but it’s a fact that Iranian regime has helped al Qaeda

Thanks

” First, bin Laden’s terrorist network wasn’t the beaten and fugitive force Obama—then seeking reelection—claimed. Second, the documents proved beyond any reasonable doubt that al Qaeda had an uneasy but mutually beneficial relationship with Iran, and Obama spent much of his second term laboring to convince Americans that the Iranian regime could be trusted.”
