$1 Billion Price on bin Laden's Head
Wanted Dead or Alive: Osama bin Laden, suspected mastermind of Tuesday's terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center and Pentagon.
That's the message from a group of Los Angeles businessmen who hope to raise $1 billion to pay mercenaries to hunt down the mass murderer and anyone else who helped with Tuesday's attacks.
"Now it's time to wipe out the wasp nests of terrorism," Edward Lozzi told U.S. News & World Report's "Washington Whispers" Saturday, explaining the motivation behind the fund.
Lozzi's is the public relations executive hired by the group of anonymous West Coast millionaires who want to raise the big bucks to take bin Laden out.
"I don't think there's any American who wouldn't donate," the PR man said.
And what if the U.S. military gets to bin Laden before the private bounty hunters? Lozzi said the money will go instead to the familes of the victims of Tuesday's attacks.
